JC de Vera putting love on hold for career

MANILA, Philippines- JC de Vera said he is putting love on hold because of his booming career in showbiz.

JC has been busy with the series of projects coming his way. He was part of the hit primetime drama “The Legal Wife” and is currently one of the main characters in the currently running afternoon drama “Moon of Desire.”

He is also working on the upcoming film “Once a Princess” with Erich Gonzalez.

“Sabi ko nga sumama kayo sa akin araw-araw, e, nang makita n’yo kung sino nakakasama ko everyday,” JC said in an interview after the press conference of “Once a Princess.”

“Pero I’m still hoping na someday…hindi mo rin masabi. Kasi ‘yong mga makakatrabaho mo in the future… hindi mo rin alam kung sa ka-partner mo ma-inlove ka rin, di mo masabi,” he adds.

Meanwhile, JC said that even with the series of projects he has been doing, it is as if he’s still new in the industry.

“Well, para akong bago sa industriya,” he said. “Na-realize ko marami pa pala akong kailangan matutunan as an actor. Tine-take ko lang ‘yong magandang opportunity ngayon, na mayro’n akong nagagawang magagandang projects, nakaka-save ako nang malaki for doing out of town shows, out of the country shows which I didn’t do before.”

He added that he doesn’t know until when the demand for his talent will last, that’s why “habang mainit, I make the most out of it.”

JC said “Once a Princes” would be his first mature film.

“First time kasi most of the time puro rom-com [romance-comedy], puro horror,” he said. “So this is the first time I make a drama movie, lalo na with direct Laurice Guillen, di ba? Very grey ‘yong character, masyado siyang deep. So first time na very mature siya for me.”
