Sharon Cuneta reveals what her heart desires
The Sharonians are happy that their idol Sharon Cuneta is making a comeback movie this year, the 15th anniversary offering of Star Cinema, Caregiver.
A year after Crying Ladies (2003), where she earned a Best Actress award from Brussels International Film Festival, the Megastar gave birth to her second daughter, Miel Pangilinan. That was when she gained more weight.
“I feel like…you know, when you’re not really feeling good about yourself, and you don’t really work as well as you could be when you’re really feeling like an artista,” began Sharon. “So because I was so overweight for a long time, and I had grown so tired of going on crash diet because the minute I stopped, which was when I got pregnant, twice na, the rebound weight would be horrible. I also gained more than I lost, so, I took it slow this time.”
The multi-awarded actress is just happy that every time she’s on a movie project, losing weight does not become a problem. She said, “Nakakatuwa! Every time I do a movie, I’m losing weight in the process. Makikita sa screen.”
Almost three decades after she became a household name because of hit single “Mr. DJ,” Sharon is happy that she no longer has to prove anything anymore.
Before, when she was just a newbie in the movie industry, she had to face some challenges.
“So ako I had to prove myself to the public that I’m not a spoiled brat kasi hindi ako Cinderella story when I started. I will work po. I will earn your respect. Lahat, even my co-workers parang siguro they thought I should expect special treatment,” the host-actress-singer recalled.
The Mega is currently filming Caregiver in London, and she revealed her excitement and how much she missed being in front of the camera.
“My calendar is suddenly packed again, parang sometimes, you wanna complain and say, ‘Sana ma-distribute yung workload over the four years akong hindi nag-work noon pero I’m not complaining. I’m really grateful.
“I’m grateful to be in this position na I can just choose the projects that I make. I don’t have to really…I’m not 25 and having to plan for the next ten years. If I don’t wanna work this year, okay lang. I do like get in touch with my fans,” she said contentedly.
And if there’s one thing she’s looking forward to, it is to fully devote time to the things that matter to her.
“There will come a time when I’ll have to really do naman what my heart dictates, which is, to just stay home, read, watch DVD, kiss every day. Kiss and kiss and kiss, not movie kissing,” ended the Megastar.
