AT the presscon for ‘Till I Met You,’ a talkative Regine Velasquez was game and willing to answer all questions asked of her, including about her personal life. She admitted she’s no longer a virgin and that she has a secret boyfriend for four years.
Of course, she won’t reveal the guy’s identity, and this makes the writers present suspect that she’s just making him up to deflect from the rumor linking her to Ogie Alcasid. As one writer remarked: “Buti’t sobrang martir sa bait ang BF niya at pumayag na itago siya for four years. Baka naman figment of the imagination lang ‘yan.”
“I’m just really good at keeping a secret,” Regine adds. “Gusto ko kasi, sa akin na lang muna ito. I’m sure naman you’d understand me. One day, I’ll definitely reveal who the guy is and I hope you respect na lang us muna. Sa ngayon, all I can say is that this person is the one who’s making me happy and he’s making my life so colorful. Masarap naman talaga to have somebody to share whatever success you have and to share your life with, di ba? Basta, hindi na virgin ang lola n’yo. May experience na. Hanggang dito pa lang ang kaya kong sabihin ngayon. We’re very discreet and the little privacy that I have, I wanna treasure muna, okay?”
As of now, she’s busy promoting her movie, “Till I Met You”, to be shown on October 11, and her 20th anniversary concert, “Twenty”, at the Araneta Coliseum on October 13 & 14, with the Manila Symphony Orchestra II conducted by Arturo Molina. Her concert is sponsored by Wyeth’s Promil and her special guests are pro-gifted musicians Joseph Valdes (son of Luchi Cruz-Valdes), Jacob Sarreal, Christian Tan and Paulina and Pocholo Gutierrez. Together, they have recorded the commemorative song about nurturing the gift each child has, “The Gift Inside of You”, composed by Raul Mitra who’s the concert’s musical director.
“The concert is very special,” says Regine. “For the set, we’ll have a Roman coliseum built inside the big dome, with the center stage holding a grand staircase that leads to the upper box gallery. To highlight my love affair with the movies, I’ll sing a medley of hit movie themes with film clips from my films. I’m also co-directing this with my manager of 13 years, Ronnie Henares. I’ll be doing the duets I did with Jomari Chan, Gary Valenciano, Martin Nievera, Ogie Alcasid, Janno Gibbs and Paul Anka.”
Tickets to the once-in-a-lifetime show are available at all SM branches or Aria Productions at 926-7868.
