BEFORE ALL the stars of “Moon of Desire” were called in at its presscon, ABS-CBN gave importance to JC De Vera and he was interviewed solo by the press for 15 minutes. JC is very happy as he is doing not just one but two soaps simultaneously. At night, he’s seen in “The Legal Wife” and in the afternoon, he’ll now be seen in “Moon of Desire” starting March 31.
“Nakakapagod as I tape ‘Legal Wife’ MWF and ‘Moon of Desire’ TThS, but okay lang, I’m not complaining kasi gusto ko naman ang ginagawa ko,” he says. “This is actually a big blessing. May natapos din akong movie, ‘So It’s You’, sa Regal, with Carla Abellana.”
Obviously, he has no reason to regret that he moved to ABS-CBN as they really give him importance. Doesn’t he get confused about the two characters her plays? “Mahirap nga na two different characters are sabay kong pino-portray, pero nandun po ang co-stars and directors ko to remind me on which set I’m currently working.”
Has he noticed that Meg Imperial, his leading lady in “Moon of Desire”, looks like an ex-GF of his? “Yes, magkamukha sila ni Danita Paner. Pareho silang maganda.”
How does he find Meg? “She’s really very desirable. Very pleasing pa ang personality at magaling ding umarte. There’s no adjustment between the of us kasi nakatrabaho ko na siya noong pareho pa kaming nasa TV5.”
