RICH ASUNCION is enjoying her role as a mermaid in GMA-7’s “Kambal Sirena” where she plays the role of Betilya, the friend of Damos (Yul Servo) who advises him not to fall in love with a human (Mickey Ferriols). But Yul can’t stop himself and becomes the father of the twin mermaids played by Louise de los Reyes.
Rich says she doesn’t wear a bra as a mermaid. Instead, her long hair is plastered onto her chest to cover her boobies. During a take, she felt that the long tresses supposed to cover her breasts got loose while she was swimming and she was totally exposed. She just continued with the scene but it was not included in the episode’s final cut.
“It’s really not a joke to play a mermaid kasi kundi ka nakababad sa malamig na tubig, naka-harness ka’t nakabitin sa ere for the chroma special effects shot,” she says. “But I’m not complaining. At least, lagi akong may trabaho ngayon. My last was ‘Binoy Henyo’.”
How is it working with ex-BF Aljur Abrenica? “Naku, matagal na yun. Marami na kaming ibang pinagsamahang show at hindi na yun issue.”
Unlike Aljur who’s now on with Kylie Padilla, Rich is currently loveless after she broke up with her last boyfriend, Ervic Vijandre. Won’t she join a beauty pageant again?
“Hindi na. Tama na yung pagsali ko sa Bb. Pilipinas noon na runner up ako. Nagalit nga sila when I complained na hindi nabigay sa’kin ang prize ko. Mag-aartista na lang ako. Kasi habang ka-join ka sa pageant, hindi ka makapagtrabaho, kaya wala ka namang income doon. E, I need to work for my family.”
