Ai-ai Delas Alas took the showbiz world by surprise when she revealed that she had been dating a younger Venezuelan model named Julio Cabrera. Last May, Ai-ai walked down the red carpet premiere of her movie BFF with Julio, a 25-year-old former Mr. Venezuela-International, in tow. Ai-ai and Julio acted very sweet together in front of the crowd so many assumed the relationship will blossom into a full-blown romance.
However, at the set of May Bukas Pa where she is about to make a guest appearance, Ai-ai stated that her romance with Julio did not prosper. “Si Julio? Nandito pa ba siya? (laughs) Ewan ko kung nandito pa siya sa Pilipinas. Hindi naman masyadong nag-prosper ang love life namin. Busy din kasi siya and three months lang yata siya dito and after that babalik na siya sa Venezuela.” She added that she and Julio just communicate through text now. “Text text na lang kami ngayon. Hindi na kami masyadong nagkikita. Nung huli kaming magkatext nasa Boracay siya. Hindi na ako sumama. Ayoko. Nag-inarte?! Hahaha!”
According to the box-office comedy queen, language and geography may have gotten in the way of her possible romance with Julio. Ai-ai explained why she has no plans of going with Julio to his home country. “Sa Venezuela? Naku naman, neng, dito nga nahihirapan na akong kausapin siya dun pa kaya sa sarili niyang bansa?! Mahirap kasi ‘yung language nila. Nag-aaral na nga akong ng iba’t ibang wika ngayon, French, Italian, lahat. Para at least kapag pumunta ako sa mga bansang ‘yun e may alam naman akong sabihin,” as if insinuating that she is considering a new guy of another nationality. “Iba naman. Taga-Greece naman, ha ha ha!,” Ai-ai joked.
But with Julio out of the picture, Ai-ai will now have more time to be with her new man, former President Joseph Estrada as they begin shooting a movie for Star Cinema. Ai-ai shared that one of her prayers at the moment is the positive turn out of the monumental film. “I pray na i-bless ni Bro ‘yung movie na gagawin namin ni Mr. Erap Estrada. Mag-start na kaming mag-shoot at baka ipalabas sa October. Kaya pinili kong mag-guest sa May Bukas Pa para makapagdasal ako kay Bro na basbasan Niya ‘yung gagawin naming pelikula, nang bonggang bongga.”
Ai-ai said that she feels so honored to have been chosen by Erap to be his leading lady in his first film in 20 years. “Ito ay napalaking pangyayari sa buhay ko at aking career kasi after a very long time ngayon lang uli gagawa ng pelikula si dating Pangulong Estrada. It’s an honor na ako ‘yung napili niyang makasama sa pelikulang ito. Ang saya ko dahil madaming blessings ang dumarating sa akin.”
The story of the film is yet to be disclosed, but the people are already wondering as early as now if there will be a kissing scene between the funny girl and the former president. Ai-ai said that she is very much ready to kiss Erap in the movie. “Nag-kiss na kami dati sa isang event, pero smack lang ‘yun. Ewan ko lang dito sa pelikulang gagawin namin kung may kissing scene, kung mas matindi ang gagawin namin. Ready naman ako kung sakali. Ang tanong ready ba siya, hahaha!”
