John Lloyd paborito ang labi ni Angelica, Assunta takot tumaba

Actually, maling sabihing directorial movie debut ni Direk Antoinette Jadaone ang upcoming na pelikulang Beauty in a Bottle, which Skylight and Quantum Films co-produced. Sinabi niya, during the presscon para sa nasabing pelikula, co-starring together for the first time sina Ange­lica Panganiban, Assunta de Rossi at Angeline Quinto, she co-directed with Direk Joyce Bernal sa soon-to-be released starrer ng unico hijo ni Piolo Pascual, si Iñigo Pascual, titled Relaks It’s Pag-ibig, kasama sina Julian Estrada at Sofia Andres.

Direk Antoinette started her showbiz career in film as a storywriter. Siya ang sumulat ng box-office hit comedy na Da Possessed, starring Vhong Navarro at Solenn Heussaff and produced by Star Cinema.

Co-writer naman siya ng director-writer na si Chris Martinez ng story ng Beauty in a Bottle.

Bata pa si Direk Antoinette and appears to be a naturally happy and funny person. No wonder na expertise niya ang sumulat ng mga nakakatuwa at nakakatawang kuwento at script na pampelikula.

“Actually, what attracted me to accept kaagad itong Beauty in a Bottle,” ani Angelica, “is it’s being a comedy from beginning to end.

“Aaminin ko, ganado ako tuwing humaharap ako sa kamera. And I guess, ganundin sina Assunta at Angeline.”

In Beauty in a Bottle, Angelica is Estelle, isang actress na dahil sa biglaang pagtaba ay naging subject ng mga pamimintas, lalo na sa social media.

“Actually, lahat kaming supposedly bida ng Beauty in a Bottle is saddled with the problem on how to regain our naglahong magandang looks,” pahayag pa ni Angelica.

“Ako kasi sa pelikula, I’m supposedly ang aging advertising executive. Dahil kumbaga, nahahalata na ang aking edad, marami nang sabi-sabi na I’ll get replaced soon ng isang mas bata and equally efficient,” ani Assunta.

In the case of Angeline, as Judith, insecure siya with how she looks at baka nga naman siya biglaang iwanan ng kanyang poging boyfriend.

Kaya nga raw, can you imagine the common instant relief they all felt, when they discovered a solution to their individual problem via a bottle at ng laman nito.

Set to open on October 29, Beauty in a Bottle will have its premiere showing October 28.

Excuse her daw, susog nga pala ni Angelica Panganiban in an individual interview with her, if ang paniniwala niya sa sarili ay maganda siya.

Yes, even sa mga panahong she was struggling with her weight problem. Kung sabagay daw, boyfriend John Lloyd Cruz never made her felt that her ‘size’ lessened her appeal sa kanya.

But as Angelica said, feel niya raw it’s her lips which John Lloyd considers her beauty assets.

Panay daw kasi ang paghalik ni John Lloyd sa kanyang lips tuwing magkasama sila.

In the case of Assunta, palagay daw niya na kung ang asawa of 10 years or almost niya na si Negros Occidental Congressman Jules Ledesma ang masusunod, gusto nitong ‘may laman’ siya.

Pero peg daw ni Assunta na mag-weigh siya ng hanggang 140 pounds lang.

“Ang hirap yatang magpapayat, ha,” ani pa ni Assunta. Kaya ayaw kong magpabaya when it comes to my body.”

To date, we all know na ang isang biggest frustration ni Assunta bilang may asawa ay ang pananatili niyang childless.

In the case of Jules, malamang na mga dalaga at binata na ang dalawang anak nito sa unang asawa.

Angeline hoping na magiging seryoso ang relasyon nila ni Erik

In the case of Angeline Quinto, neither here nor there daw ang relasyon nila ng fellow singer niyang si Erik Santos. But the two of them are as close as can be is given.

If ever daw something more than friendship ay finally ‘maganap’ between her at Erik, ito na ang kanyang magiging first serious boyfriend

Samantala, common knowledge na at one time, nagkaroon ng seryosong relasyon sina Erik at ang sexy comedienne na si Ruffa Mae Quinto.
