One on One with Nina Jose: I love older men

NI JULIE BONIFACIO

VERY refreshing ang beauty ng sexy star na si Nina Jose. Sa big launch ng TV5 for their newest shows, mas lalo pang  gumanda at lumakas ang appeal ni Nina na kasama sa teleserye ng Kapatid network, ang Valiente na gabi-gabing napapanood pagkatapos ng Nandito Ako. Nina plays the role of Leona Braganza na kapatid ng karakter nina Oyo Sotto at Nadine Samonte.

Tumaba pa raw ngayon si Nina. Nu’ng araw na makausap namin siya, ‘yun din daw ang first day ng kanyang pagda-diet. May  rason naman pala kaya kailangan ni Nina na i-maintain ang kanyang super curvy na katawan. ‘Yun ang malalaman natin sa interbyu ng BANDERA sa kanya.

BANDERA: Kumusta ang personal life mo?
NINA JOSE:I’m very, very concentrated with work. Sa lovelife? Meron naman, may boyfriend ako. Last Valentine’s Day hindi kami magkasama.

He’s in Bangkok. He’s a businessman. And we’ve been together since Dec. 31.

His name is Joshua Calatag and he’s 31 years old.

Nagkakilala kami dito sa Philippines. In-introduce ako sa kanya ng friend namin.

Tapos ‘yun, we went to Hong Kong with my family.

Close na agad siya sa family ko. Pero okey lang kahit ‘di kami nagkasama nu’ng Valentine. You can celebrate naman any day.

B: Ano ang regalo niya sa ‘yo noong Feb. 14?
NJ: Ah, nagte-text. Hindi kasi kami ma-gift-gift, e. Hindi rin kami ma-Skype.

Hindi naman sa hindi kami ma-techi. We just trust each other and that’s enough.

If you love a person doesn’t matter. I mean, as you know, you love each other.

B: Ilang buwan kang niligawan ng boyfriend mo?
NJ: Actually, walang ligaw na involved, e. Parang things just eventually happened, Things just float.

Nagkakilala kami last December lang din, e. So, para siyang whirlwind thing. Ang bilis. Pero I’m happy naman.

B: Bukod sa Valiente, kasama ka rin sa sitcom nina Vic Sotto with Jose and Wally. Sa dami ng work mo, paano pa kayo nagkikita ng boyfriend mo?
NJ: No naman. This year, ume-effort naman siya. Kapag may work ako dumadalaw siya.

Or after work nagkikita kami. We find time for each other naman. That’s what’s important, may effort naman.

B: Saan naka-base ang BF mo?
NJ: Here in Makati, sa Greenbelt. But ano, originally, he’s from Bulacan.

B: Pang-ilang BF mo na si Josh?
NJ: Third boyfriend but first BF na like this, na open.

B: This time ba sa tingin mo seryoso na kayo sa relasyon n’yo ni Josh?
NJ: It’s okey. So, I’m happy. Basta I’m happy.

B: Bakit naging open ka na this time sa iyong lovelife?
NJ: Maybe it’s time na maging open ako. Parang right timing lang lahat. And okey naman siya sa family ko

B: If ever yayain ka na niyang pakasal, papayag ka na ba?
NJ: Ay, hindi ‘yan. Hindi pa. Hindi pa ako ready. Marami pa, gusto ko pang magtrabaho ng maraming-maraming-marami. Super work, work, work.

B: Naging open ka ba ngayon dahil nabalita ang tungkol sa inyo ni Vic Sotto?
NJ: Uhm, no. No naman. It’s my own decision na ganu’n, na i-open ko na ang boyfriend ko.

Gusto ko lang ipagkalat, ipagsigawan na meron akong mahal na tao at mahal niya ako.

B: Magkasama rin kayo ni Oyo sa Valiente. Hindi ba kayo nagkaroon ng awkward feeling nu’ng ma-link ka kay Vic?
NJ: Medyo it was awkward pero you know Kuya Oyo is really very nice.

And you know, alam naman namin kung ano ang totoo. He’s a gentleman. He was raised well.

B: Kinausap  ka ba ni Oyo about the issue with Vic?
NJ: No, we don’t want to talk about it and we’re really, really good. I mean, we don’t need to talk about it. Basta we’re good, we’re okey. He’s very nice.

B: Nagtsitsikahan ba kayo ni Oyo sa set?
NJ: Well, we talk. We say hi and hello, ganyan. Pero never namin napag-usapan ‘yung isyu. Siguro out of respect na rin.

B: Nagsisi ka ba na sa ‘yo pa nanggaling ‘yung isyu sa inyo ni Vic?
NJ: No naman because first of all I asked permission from Bossing and he agreed.

Pero in a way we cleared out everything na and  everything’s okey. We’re both happy. Everyone is happy.

B: Never ba talagang nanligaw sa ‘yo si Bossing?
JN: I wouldn’t say never. But, nagparamdam, yes.

B: Kailan nagparamdam si Vic?
NJ: Nasa show ako, nasa sitcom nila. And you know what? It’s deeper than that, e. For me, I think he’s a very nice person. He’s a very nice man, he’s a very good friend. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

B: Naganap ba ang pagpaparamdam ni Vic nu’ng wala ka pang BF?
NJ: I wouldn’t even say, I don’t know if it’s ligawan. It’s like connection to a person, e. Naging close, yes. Pero wala pa akong boyfriend that time.

B: Kung nagtuluy-tuloy ba si Vic sa pagpaparamdam meron siyang chance?
NJ: I wouldn’t say no. I wouldn’t say yes. All I can say is maybe, yeah because he’s a very nice man. If there’s no, you know, if you love someone, ‘di ba, why not?
B: Bakit nasira? Muntik na bang maging kayo?
NJ: No, wala lang. I have a boyfriend, e. I met someone and he has (someone), I don’t know if he already had a girlfriend that time.

B: Nag-date ba kayo ni Vic noon?
NJ: No, no, we just talk. He’s a good friend. That’s all I can say.

B: Ano ang reaksyon ng BF mo nu’ng lumabas ang tungkol sa inyo ni Vic?
NJ: Uhm, my boyfriend is very, alam mo ‘yung nagseselos na pailalim? Parang pa-cute, like that.

Wala lang. Parang, kasi me and Bossing, we still communicate as friends. We still talk.

‘Pag nagte-text sasabihin niya, ‘O, kumusta syota mo?’ Pero that’s nothing. He’s very understanding.

B: Hindi ba nahihirapan ang BF mo na intindihin ang trabaho mo?
NJ: No, and he loves me. I think he accepts me naman for who I am. So, he understands that.

B: Super rich ba ang BF mo?
NJ: He’s okey. Yeah, yeah.

B: Ikaw ba ‘yung tipo ng babae na mahilig sa matanda?
NJ: Uh, personally, I want someone older than me because I think they’re more mature, caring and understanding and hindi na sila naglalaro.

I don’t know but that’s my opinion. Pero meron din naman matatanda naglalaro pa rin. So, you can never tell.

Pero usually I like the older ones.

B: Nagli-live in na ba kayo ni Josh?
NJ: No, we’re not. I mean, sa akin siya rume-report. You know what I mean? I’m the one he talks to in the morning. I’m the one he says good night too. I’m fine with that.

B: Ipinakilala mo na ba ang BF mo kay Vic?
JN: Well, kasi usually, natatapos si Bossing one in the morning. Dumarating si Josh, ‘pag tapos na ako ng taping. So, hindi sila
nagkikita.
