But would she fight for the man she loves even if there’s a third party between them?
“It depends on the situation at doon sa tao,” she says. “Kung kaya mo bang mabuhay kahit wala siya or ipaglalaban mo siya kahit ganun ang ugali at pagkatao niya kasi sobrang mahal mo siya at kaya mo siyang tanggapin. Sa movie kasi naming ‘The Third Party’, mas kumplikado ang sitwasyon dahil ako ang unang karelasyon ni Sam Milby but later on, when we meet again, sila na ni Zanjoe Marudo. Magka-live in sila, then dahil wala akong matirhan, makikitira ko sa kanila. Ang mangyayari, ako at si Zanjoe, we will compete for the attention of Sam.”
So who gets Sam in the end? “Siempre, hindi ko puede i-reveal. You have to find out for yourself by watching the movie which is an unusual love triangle.”
Sam Milby himself would rather keep the viewer guessing who is the lucky gal or gay who won his heart. “Panoorin nyo na lang,” he says. But didn’t he feel reluctant in accepting the unconventional role he played? “No. I got excited nga kasi, as an actor, you want to be adventurous and look for something different to play to challenge yourself. And although may gay angle sa movie, it’s not naman serious kundi may pagka-comedy ang dating. But if it we’re a heavy drama with heavy man to man kissing scenes like ‘Brokeback Mountain’, I can’t imagine myself doing it. Dito sa ‘Third Party’, very light ang treatment, wala kaming kissing scenes ni Zanjoe and I had fun doing my scenes with both him and Angel.”
