IT'S always a delight to interview Regine Velasquez. She doesn't run
out of things to say and her spontaneity adds spice to her comments.
Talking to her recently about her latest movie, "Pangarap Ko Ang
Ibigin Ka," we focused on her views on love:
Do you believe that, when you were born, it was already written in
the stars that a particular man would sweep you off your feet?
I'd like to believe that. But things happen (laughs). You know, you
wake up one day and you realize that your husband is fooling around!
Akala ko romantic ka.
I am! I'm very romantic, but there's also a part of me that's very
practical.
Di ba in the movies, there's love at first sight?
It doesn't happen in real life! It never happened to me. I don't
believe in love at first sight. I don't get attracted to looks. I
think it's so shallow.
But can't you tell a man's character just by looking?
There are people who are like that, pero hindi ako naniniwala sa mga
first impression-first impression. Mas yadong judgmental, ayoko ng
ganoon.
Pero di ba ganoon ang love? It's supposed to be illogical.
Yeah, but I never do that. Kailangan ko muna makilala. And I use my
head!
I think you use your head more than your heart, that's why you
haven't found the right person.
Hindi naman. Mapili lang ako. It's very important for me to be
comfortable with the person I'm going to be with. It's not very easy
for me to trust. But I do have a strong instinct about people. I can
usually tell by the second or third meeting kung magki-click ako sa
taong ito, kung puwede kaming maging kaibigan, or more than that.
Character is very important for me, plus integrity, intelligence and
a sense of humor. It would be really great too if he were
goodlooking, why not? I'll be looking at him for the rest of my life,
why wouldn't I want him to be goodlooking, right?
Can you find all those qualities in one person?
Of course!
Masyadong namang perfect ang taong yan.
Hindi naman!
Di ba everyone has faults?
That's where love comes in. Pag mahal mo na yung tao, kung ano yung
kulang, it really doesn't matter.
Importante ang sense of humor sa iyo. So kung square yung tao, ayaw
mo siya?
Kung square siya, I don't think I'd even be friends with him!
Some relationships start out na you hate each other, and then
something happens....
Oo, nangyari na rin iyon sa akin. I was like that with Ariel before,
I didn't like him at all! But when I got to know him, he was such a
nice person!
Suppose you meet a guy who has all those qualities that you're
looking for, kaya lang wala siyang pera.
I have money.
Ikaw ang susuporta?
Well, it can't be na aasa siya sa akin.
Suppose the guy is earning less than you?
That's fine. As long as he has dreams and works hard.
Nagtatrabaho siya pero ang trabaho niya, working class -- waiter o
security guard.
I don't mind, as long as he works hard at may dreams siya. If you
keep working hard, you can achieve something.
With your status now, when somebody who's not well-off courts you, di
ba at the back of your mind, iniisip mo, he only loves me for my
money?
That's why I need to know him first. I'd be able to tell if I was
just being used!
