“Anything, everything.”
Ito ang sinabi ni Heart Evangelista nang tanungin tungkol sa mga proyektong gagawin niya sa GMA Network matapos pumirma ng panibagong two-year contract kahapon, September 20.
Patuloy niya, “Siyempre, may concepts ako.
“But, you know, you reach the point in your life na, you know, you just wanna work.
“You just enjoy what you do no matter what they give. Mag-e-eighteen years na akong nag-aartista.
“When this contract ends, 20th year ko na.
“So, it's all just parang bonus years of being an artista.”
Ayon kay Heart, ie-enjoy na lamang niya ang anumang proyektong ipagkakatiwala sa kanya ng Kapuso network.
“I think I'm very happy with what's going on with my career.
“I think I've survived.
“I think ang dami kong pinagdaanan and yet, I'm still okay, I'm still here.
“So, kahit ano ang ibigay nila sa akin, it's like a box with a red ribbon on it.
“I'll accept anything, it's a blessing. I don't have any requirements.”
THE BIG MOVE. Samantala, nabanggit ni Heart na ang pagiging Kapuso niya ang isa sa pinakamagandang nangyari sa kanyang showbiz career.
Paliwanag niya, “When I moved to Channel 7. That was parang make-it-or-break-it point of my life.
“I didn't know what was next. GMA was a huge help for me.
“Talagang they really... I wouldn't know what would've happened to me if I didn't move.
“Sa time na yun, heartbroken pa ako, hindi pa ako nakaka-move on.
“That was a good decision.”
Bago lumipat ng GMA Network si Heart, mula sa ABS-CBN, ay kagagaling lang niya sa breakup nila ni Jericho Rosales.
Dagdag pa ni Heart, “Thankful pa rin ako kay Tita Annabelle [Rama, her former talent manager], actually, kasi siya yung nag-push sa akin.
“Kung hindi, baka nag-aral na lang ako, hindi ko nakilala si Chiz [Escudero, her husband].”
BABY OR ACTING PROJECTS. Present sa panayam ng entertainment editors kay Heart ang SVP for Entertainment TV ng GMA Network na si Ms. Lilybeth Rasonable.
Ayon sa lady TV executive, plano ng network na maipakita pa ang ibang side ni Heart bilang aktres, tulad ng naipakita nito sa katatapos lamang niyang teleseryeng Juan Happy Love Story.
“Now that we saw her other side, she can be patawa, she's very versatile.
“So, the next projects that we want for her are ganun, not necessarily drama.
“But we also want her to do drama because Heart is an excellent dramatic actress.
“It's just that we saw a different side of her.
“It opens up a lot of possibilities for the writers so we're gonna go that line,” pahayag ni Rasonable.
Kung sakali, sisimulan daw ang mga bagong proyekto ni Heart sa 2017.
Paano na ang plano niyang magkaroon ng baby sa susunod na taon?
“Whichever goes first,” sagot ni Heart.
“I asked Chiz that. Kasi, hindi talaga siya ma-pressure.
“Kapag tinatanong ko nga, 'O, kailan tayo magbe-baby?'
“He knows that I'm very workaholic.
“Hindi niya talaga ako tinatanong about having a baby.
“But of course, whenever I think about it, if I have to plan, if I have it my way, I'll probably do January or February.
“But I asked him, 'What if I have a soap?'
“He said, 'You know what, whichever comes first.'
“I'm lucky na ganun siya, at saka hindi siya seloso.”
Dagdag pa ni Heart, “Hindi niya ako pinapakialaman, e. I just do my thing.
“He's just not the type to ask me or pressure me. I appreciate it, actually.”
NO TO MOVIES YET. Samantala, tila ipinagpapaliban muna ni Heart ang paggawa muli ng pelikula.
Sabi ng aktres, “I'm not sure yet, honestly.
“Siguro hindi ko na kaya. Hindi ko na kaya yun.
“So, I'm taking my time. Anyway, movies naman, it depends on what season.
“Basta later on na siguro.”
Diin ni Heart, “Okay na muna, parang nakakapagod. Sila na lang muna, okey lang ako.”
Ang huling pelikulang ginawa ni Heart ay ang biopic na Felix Manalo noong 2015.
