MISS na miss na ng singer-actress na si Geneva Cruz ang mag-perform nang live sa harap ng maraming tao.
Ayon sa dating member ng grupong Smokey Mountain, napakaraming pumapasok sa kanyang isip ngayong wala pa ring kasiguruhan ang kinabukasan ng entertainment industry lalo na sa mga singer at performers na tulad niya.
Kamakailan lang, kinumpirma ni Geneva na dito na uli siya maninirahan at magtatrabaho sa Pilipinas makalipas ang ilang taong pananatili sa Amerika kasama ang dalawa niyang anak.
Proud single mom ang singer sa mga anak niyang sina Heaven at London. Si Heaven ang panganay niya sa kanyang ex-husband drummer na si Paco Arespacochaga habang si London ay anak niya sa dating partner na si Lee Paulsen.
Sa kanyang Instagram post, malalim ang hugot ni Geneva tungkol sa new normal ng buhay ngayon ng mga Filipino at dito nga niya nabanggit na gustung-gusto na niya uling mag-perform with a live audience.
“I miss performing live, and I miss touching the hands of the crowd. I believe it’s going to take a while before everything goes back to normal, and I have learned that going ‘with the flow’ (the change) has helped me feel less anxious as there are things in life we can’t control,” ang simulang pahayag ni Geneva.
“Year 2020 has been an exhausting, transformative year. COVID-19 isolated us, confused us and, worse, made us fear death even more than we already did…. but it also taught us some valuable lessons like resilience and humility.
“Pre-pandemic, I would have described myself more of an extrovert. I love people, but I didn’t like going to social events all the time. But it turns out that I really love people but does not like big gatherings.
“I love laughing, smiling, and joking, but I also like being in my room watching Netflix or rereading books. I despise Zoom, Google Classrooms, online TV appearances and anything else that attempts to replace in-person with virtual,” lahad pa ng singer-actress.
Nilinaw naman agad ni Geneva ang kanyang pahayag hinggil sa mga zoom events, “Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful for the online appearances, I just prefer going to the studios and meeting new people.
“As the vaccine is being administered, I’m beyond excited to embrace the new me, an introvert/extrovert, and a lover of good company and great laughs.
“2020 was not always fun, but it taught us all the more about ourselves, and for that, we can be grateful,” sabi pa ng ex-wife ni KC Montero.
