“I love Jennylyn as I consider her an original Regal baby,” says Mother Lily. “This is her homecoming with us.”
What’s her first project with them? “We’ve lined up two movies for her,” says Roselle. “One is a horror film about twins. The other one is a mature drama, tentatively titled ‘Brides and Lovers’, written by Rody Vera with Joel Lamangan directing. It’s about two girls, the best of friends, who become enemies because of their rivalry over one man. Jen’s friend will be Lovi Poe.”
Who’ll play the guy? “Wala pang final. We’re considering Dennis Trillo kung okay lang Jen, or Luis Manzano, who’s now linked to her.”
“Okay na kami ni Dennis, so okay lang sa’kin to work with him,” says Jen. “As for Luis, baka hindi puede kasi sa kabila siya.” Read our article, Jennylyn Mercado Has Patched Things Up With Ex-Bf Dennis Trillo
“Luis is actually managed by June Torrejon,” says Mother Lily. “I’ve talked to June and she said Luis has no contract with ABS. We’ll see if he’d agree to do a movie with Luis.”
Is it okay for Jen to do sexy roles now? “Oo naman. 25 na ako in May, so graduate na ko sa teenybopper roles, but may limitations pa rin.”
Will Luis allow her to go sexy? “We don’t meddle with each other’s career. He trusts my judgment.”
What does she like in him? “His sense of humor. Masaya talaga siyang kasama. Kahit wala ka sa mood, lalambingin ka niya. He’s a very positive person.” Read our article, Jennylyn Mercado and Luis Manzano public display of affection
How come she’s not doing any soap with GMA-7 and just hosts “Showbiz Central” and “Party Pilipinas”? “Nami-miss ko nga ang acting. But I was told I’ll do a new drama sa second quarter of 2012, so abangan na lang.”
