Juday, ‘di takot tumanda!

Hindi na masyadong aktibo sa show business si Judy Ann Santos. Matatandaang sa pelikulang Espantaho pa huling nakapagbida ang aktres noong isang taon. “It’s overwhelming fun. Probably because I’ve been working since I was 8 and sinagad ko na ‘yung trabaho ko no’ng dalaga ako and before I got married. So now, parang lahat ng schedules ko, for some reason, it’s just easy for me to do it simply because nailatag ko na ‘yung workload ko no’ng bata ako. So, I can now choose my projects. I can give more time for my family,” nakangiting pahayag ni Judy Ann.

Apatnapu’t pitong taong gulang na ngayon ang aktres. Sa kanyang edad ay hindi nakararamdam ng takot na tumanda si Juday. “I was never bothered naman in aging. Actually, I’m excited because I’m excited to know ano ba ‘yung wisdom na makukuha ko, to grow old with my kids, to grow old with my kids, to grow old with my husband. Aging for me is something that we all have to look forward to kasi it’s inevitable,” makahulugang paliwanag ng dating child star.

Kapag mayroong potensyal na proyekto ay nakikipag-usap nang maayos si Juday sa mga prodyuser. Hanggang maaari ay binabalanse ng aktres ang panahon para sa pamilya kahit mayroong trabaho. “I can actually talk to my producers if this is a setup that is okay with you because this is my setup now, okay po ako. But if you have a deadline and you can’t do it, I totally understand. Hindi ko naman pinipilit ‘yung producer na dapat ibigay niya sa akin ito, dapat ganito. Wala namang demands na gano’n. I would always work with my producers both ways na parang if I can get this, then you can get this kasi para fair. Kung hindi naman, I totally get it. I’m just very blessed na most of my producers understand naman where I’m coming from. I have a very supportive husband, my children are always with me and nami-miss ko din namang magtrabaho, nami-miss ko din namang umarte. I’m not saying magre-retire ako, nag-lay low lang nang slight,” paglalahad ng premyadong aktres.

Charlie, ayaw makumpara kay Fyang

Mayroong ilang pinagkukumpara sina Charlie Fleming at Fyang Smith. Parehong naging housemates ang dalawa sa magkasunod na edisyon ng Pinoy Big Brother. Ikinagulat umano ni Charlie ang mga komento ng netizens sa social media tungkol dito. “I’ve seen a lot about it, obviously. Actually, nagugulat talaga ako. Natatakot talaga ako because I don’t really wanna be compared to other artists especially in a derogatory way. ‘Yung ‘pag wisdom and being matured, it comes from experience. It comes from understanding,” pahayag sa amin ni Charlie sa Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.

Para sa Kapuso actress ay mas mabuting hindi siya maikumpara sa kahit sino mang artista. “Hindi talaga siya sinasadya. I’ve totally no control and I haven’t spoken up about it because it’s definitely not something that I want to put myself in din,” giit ng dalaga.

Minsan na ring nagkita at nagkakilala sina Charlie at Fyang. Kahit parehong sumikat sa PBB ay hindi naman daw magkaibigan ang dalawa. “We’ve met once only. I said hello. I introduced myself but we don’t actually follow each other. We’re not friends or anything. Hindi din po, not yet,” pagtatapat ng Kapuso actress. (Reports from JCC)
