KIRAY CELIS plays the title role in "Manananggurl", this Saturday night's episode of TV5's hit horror-comedy, "ParangNormal Activity". Kiray plays the leader of cheer leaders and mean girls in their school who becomes the victim of a manananggal, played by Regine Angeles. She gets the shock of her life when, while doing a cheer leading stunt, she's thrown into the air and her body separates into two, with her upper half growing wings to make her a manananggurl.
"Grabe, maski ako, natakot nang makita ko ang sarili ko sa screen," she says. "Pero nakakatawa rin kasi kahit lumilipad na ako, hinahanap ko yung lower half ko. Sabi ko, 'My hips! My hips!' Nakakalowkah!"
Kiray stole the scene at the show's recent presscon when she imitated the Pabebe Girls, doing their Pabebe talk. When she was asked if she already had a boyfriend, she replied in a Pabebe manner.
"Sana nga, payagan na ako ng Mama ko kasi 18 na ako. Pinu-push ko na talagang magka-BF na ako. Sabi ko, payagan na niya kami ni Tom Taus. Pinipilit ko nga si Direk Perci Intalan na i-guest si Tom sa show namin. Kasi mas maganda kung may ka-love team ako. Parang Pabebe po, ganun."
Why does she choose Tom? "Kasi po ang hot niya. At magkasing-height kami. At saka balikbayan siya, galing sa States, so na-miss siya ng mga tao. E, kilala siya nung bata pa siya as Cedie, ang munting prinsipe, di ba?"
