IN FAIRNESS, kahit na hindi na masyadong active sa showbiz ang tinaguriang Sentimental Diva na si Roselle Nava ay buhay na buhay pa rin ang kanyang mga kanta.
Si Roselle ang masasabing Hugot Queen ng kanyang henerasyon bilang singer dahil nga sa mga pinasikat niyang kanta noong dekada 90.
Bukod sa “Bakit Nga Ba Mahal Kita” naging theme song din ng mga sawi sa pag-ibig ang kanyang “Dahil Mahal Na Mahal Kita” at “Huwag Ka Nang Magbabalik.”
“I am so lucky and blessed because even though I am no longer that active, my songs, they continue to live on and were even passed on to the next generation,” ang pahayag ni Roselle sa presscon ng Valentine concert na “All Heart”.
Kuwento pa ng premyadong OPM artist, “One time, I was with a co-parent and her son is 8 years old but he knows my song, ‘Bakit Nga Ba Mahal Kita.’ That was so heartwarming. I’m really, really glad there are good singers who have been reviving my songs lately.”

Dalawa na ang anak ngayon ni Roselle, sina Andre Rafael,10 at Alejandro Ramon, 8. Tatlo na sana ang kanyang anak pero nakunan siya sa kanyang first baby.
“I had a gestational diabetes every time I was pregnant. We were not able to monitor then at six months, the baby no longer had a heartbeat. We named him Alfonso.
“The youngest was named after my dad and my father-in-law. Last baby na siya because I always had a complicated pregnancy,” kuwento pa niya.
Nang mamahinga siya sa showbiz ay napasok nga siya sa politics. Siyam na taon siyang nagsilbing konsehal sa Parañaque hanggang sa ipinasa na nga niya ito sa kanyang asawa.
“People were pushing me to run for a higher officem I believe that in the nine years that I served our city, my performance turned out to be okay.

“There were times when people would come up to me and ask me, ‘Why don’t you run?’ I’m good to have served as councilor. The responsibility is less. At least I can say that I have time for my family. It’s so hard if you run for mayor,” aniya pa.
Pagpapatuloy pa niya, “We decided that I will focus on our kids first,” she explained. “At the ages of my children now, they really need to be guided. My sons are very, very good boys. Whatever we ask them to do, they always obey
“They study very well. They behave well. One sings (Rafa) and the other one dances (Ram). I believe that Rafa sings better when he was my age. I’m hoping that he will also find his passion for music,” dugtong ng biriterang singer.
Natanong din namin si Roselle kung papayagan ba niyang mag-showbiz din ang mga anak, “I entered showbiz when I was still young and I had so many opportunities then. But I was able to finish my schooling.
“I guess it depends on the artist if he was able to handle his career well. If ever any one of my children joins showbiz, I believe they can do it well.
“I was very shy before, but when I entered show, I also became mature. I am open to my children trying it out in showbiz. It really depends on them. If they like, I will support them. If they don’t, I will not force them,” sey ng singer.
Samantala, last Thursday, February 9, ay dumalaw kami sa rehearsal ng Valentine show ni Roselle, ang “All Heart” kung saan makakasama niya ang iba pang OPM icons na sina Ito Rapadas, Raymond Lauchengco, Wency Cornejo at ang APO Hiking Society members na sina Boboy Garrovillo at Jim Paredes.
Nakakaloka! Habang pinanonood namin ang rehearsal nila ay tumatayo talaga ang balahibo namin, lalo na nu’ng kinanta na nila ang kanilang mga hit songs at nang praktisin na nina Jim at Boboy ang mga hits ng APO.
Magaganap ang “All Heart” concert sa mismong Valentine’s Day, February 14, sa the PICC Plenary Hall. Si Roselle lamang ang girl sa show kaya naman mas may pressure raw ito sa kanya.
“But it’s so nice to perform on the big stage with artists that I really admire. When ‘Ang TV’ started, Wency was the one who was among our first guests in the show. That was in 1992 and we were singing ‘So I sing this song to all of my age… (Next in Line).’
“The purpose of our concert is to bring our audience back in time, to reminisce all the stages of love. We will be singing all our hit songs.
“I’m thankful that I’m given this opportunity and chance to be able to share my music and something that I really, really love, enjoy and be appreciated.
“I’m thankful to everyone who continue to love and patronize us through the years, from before until now,” aniya pa.
Ang “All Heart” ay mula sa direksyon ni Calvin Murphy Neria with Elmer Blancaflor as musical director. Mabibili ang tickets sa Ticketworld.
