On November 9, new Vivamax artist Sahara Bernales discussed what it was like showing off her skin for the first time in her role for ‘Salakab.’
At the media conference for ‘Salakab,’ which LionhearTV covered, Bernales said she expected her sexy scenes in the upcoming Vivamax movie.
“Ako po, siyempre expected na po ‘yung ano ‘yung role ko na, actually, ‘yung sa maghuhubad talaga ako kasi ang ano lang kay Kuya Benz, kay Kuya Arthur ay aakitin lang kita, tapos suddenly naging partner ko na si Didong. Sobrang bilis ng pag-iisip ni Direk, agad niyang–on the spot the talaga na naisip niya ‘yun. So, ayun po, so first time ko maghubad ng buo, ‘yung first project din kasi na Halo-Halo which is Direk Roman din.”
However, she acknowledged feeling nervous about her foray into the sexy genre.
“So ‘yun po, siyempre nandoon ‘yung kaba pero alam ko pong makakaya ko ‘to, makakaya ko ‘to ng hindi lang ako naman eh, with Direk Roman naman and the team, ‘yun po.”
She recounted how she got into the showbiz industry after being a runway model.
“Actually, dati, runway model ako. And then parang nainip din ako sa–actually, dati, nag-aano na ako sa–nagtatalent-talent na ako sa TV, sa movie, pero hindi ‘yung nahahagip sa camera, ganon. Tapos one time, may nakita akong post na nagpapa-audition ng commercial, and then hindi ko inexpect na kilala ko naman si Tito Jojo, pero hindi ko alam kung kilala na niya ako noon, pero alam ko hindi pa niya ako kilala noon.”
She then detailed how she joined the roster of Viva artists.
“Tapos pagdating ko sa audition, nakita niya ako, ni Tito Jojo, tapos ‘yun pwede daw akong pang-Vivamax. So ‘yun po, pagdating po doon pirma po agad sa kaniya. And tapos prinesent na niya po ako kinabukasan kay Boss Vic.”
Director Roman Perez Jr also hinted at her launching movie, directed by the cult director’s apprentice, titled ‘Five Years.’
