Chynna Ortaleza Gives Three Memorable Performances This Year That Might Give Her A Best Supporting Actress Nomination

CHYNNA ORTALEZA did three movies this year and she gave equally competent performances in all of them. She is good as the avenging ghost in “Dementia”, as the lesbian inmate in “Hustisya” and as the telephone hotline counselor for disturbed youth in “#Y”, which for best ensemble acting for its whole cast at the recent Cinemalaya. She can get best supporting actress nominations for any of her three portrayals.

“I’m just lucky to get to work with good directors,” she says at the presscon of “#Y” which will be released in theatres by Star Cinema starting this Wednesday.

On TV, she’ll next be seen as Raymart Santiago’s sister in law who has a weird relationship with him in GMA-7’s “Second Chances” which will start airing in January to replace “Hiram na Alaala”.

Chynna is currently being linked to actor-singer Kean Cipriano after they were seen watching a movie together at Robinson’s Magnolia. “No, hindi kami on. We’re just friends, matagal na. Yes, nanoood kami ng movie na magkasama, pero wala naman sigurong masama roon. It’s not really a date. After my last relationship, I don’t feel I’m ready to commit again. I’m not closing my doors but I told God na kung wala siyang nakalaang tamang guy for me, ready naman akong maging matandang dalaga. Masaya naman ako being single.”
