Angeline Quinto Swears Her Joining The Black Nazarene's Traslacion Is Not Just A Gimmick To Promote Her New Movie, 'Foolish Love'

ANGELINE QUINTO is accused by some folks of just making a gimmick when she joined the Black Nazarene’s traslacion during the Quiapo Fiesta because she has a new movie that needs promotion as it is about to be shown, Regal’s “Foolish Love”, where she’s paired with Jake Cuenca.

“Hindi gimmick yun,” she says. “10 years old pa lang ako, namamanata na kami ng mama ko sa Poong Nazareno at four years na akong sumasampa sa andas pero ngayon lang nakunan ng video. Nung manalo ako sa Star Power, dun ako nagpasiyang gusto kong sumampa sa Nazareno bilang pasasalamat sa blessings na dumarating sa buhay ko. Bakit ko naman gagawing gimmick ang isang napakasagradong bagay. Ang takot ko lang.”

In “Foolish Love”, she plays a woman tagged ang Sawi and Patol Queen, said to be her most daring and provocative role to date. She’s looking for her long lost childhood sweetheart called Rey de la Cruz. There are many false starts until she meets Jake whose name is Reynaldo de la Cruz. She has a torrid kissing scene with Jake in the film and she was hesitant at first but their director, Joel Lamangan, warned her that if she wouldn’t do it right the first time, they will have 20 retakes until she does it convincingly.

“Sobrang kaba at takot ako kasi first time kong gumawa ng ganung eksena. Virgin pa yung lips ko sa ganyan, e. Si Jake lang ang nakalaplap sa’kin ng ganun. Buti na lang at naitawid din namin nang maayos ang eksena.”

And how did she feel about it? “Masarap pala! Matamis yung lips ni Jake,” she laughs.
So is she now ready to do more daring scenes? “Naku, huwag naman nila akong paghuhubarin kasi po wala naman akong maipapakita.”

But she seems to have a well endowed chest. In the scene where they are running around, her boobies are bouncing up and down like melons. “Kasi lang wala akong bra. Parang hindi ko makakayang ipakita yan sa harap ng kamera. Sa akin na lang yan.”

Since the title of her movie is “Foolish Love”, has she ever been a fool for love in real life? “Nakakahiya pero naranasan ko na rin pong maging tanga sa pag-ibig. Naranasan kong magmahal ng isang buong taon sa isang taong wala naman palang pagtingin sa akin. Pero hindi ko na pinaabot ng two years. Bago magdalawang taon, ayoko na. Alam ko namang masaya na siya sa ibang partner niya.”

She wouldn’t reveal the identity of the guy, so some writers made a guessing game. Was it Coco Martin with whom she was paired in ‘Born to Love” five years ago? “Ay, bakit si Coco. Ang tagal na nun, si Coco pa rin?”

Was it Erik Santos who was her partner in various concerts here and abroad? “Ay, ayoko na. Secret na lang. Hindi naman priority sa’kin ang lovelife ko ngayon. May binabayaran pa akong bahay at lupa. Three years pa yun, so work na lang muna. May mga kilala kong inuna ang lovelife, wala namang nangyari. So tama na po.”
