“It’s not something that… yeah, you joke around about it. But, di ba, it just fell into my lap?

“I’m happy and I just have to be grateful. Yes, it’s good to dream but you also have to be thankful for everything.”

Sabi ni Anne, parang naging katuparan ito ng hiling ng kanyang ina para sa kanyang birthday noong Pebrero.

“It’s just so funny kasi parang ang birthday wish sa akin ni Mama, hindi ko alam kung The Buzz ba or Kris TV.

“Noong in-interview siya, ‘Hindi ko na alam kung ano ang iwi-wish ko,’ sabi niya, ‘Indie film.’

"Nagdilang-anghel ‘yong mommy ko!”

Matagal na rin daw niyang hinihiling na makagawa ng isang indie film pero hindi niya inakala na sa Hollywood pa siya gagawa ng ganitong klase ng pelikula.

“Well, I’ve always been open to it na sana makagawa ako ng indie film. Like, you know, sana may magpadala sa Viva ng script.

“It just so happened, di ba, hindi pala dito ‘yong indie film!

“I’m just so happy that I got it, I auditioned for it. Alam mo ‘yon, parang iba ‘yong feeling na nag-audition ka and you get it.”

“I’M A NOBODY THERE.” Bagamat kilalang-kilala dito sa Pilipinas si Anne Curtis, alam naman niya na hindi niya ito madadala pagdating sa ibang bansa—lalo na sa Hollywood.

Gayunman, sabi niya, “Sobrang saya [ng experience]. Nahihiya ako noong una, pero it was an amazing experience because I am a nobody there.

“Lahat kami pantay-pantay lang. I’m starting from ground zero again.

“It was just so refreshing in a way na parang iba, e. Ewan ko, parang iba ‘yong experience.”

Naalala pa ng It’s Showtime host na noong mabigyan siya ng offer na gumanap bilang lead actress sa Blood Ransom ay agad siyang nagpaalam sa kanyang manager sa Viva na si Boss Vic del Rosario.
