Manila, Philippines – Si Julia Barretto ang napiling calendar girl ng isang inuming nakalalasing para sa taong 2024.
Ayon sa aktres, isa raw karangalan para sa kanya ang maihanay sa mga nakaraang calendar girls ng nasabing brand tulad nina Heart Evangelista, Ivana Alawi, Bela Padilla, Erich Gonzales, Kylie Verzosa at marami pang iba.
“It was something I was nervous about but also very excited because it was an honor to be chosen to represent the brand for 2024.
“Excited but nervous because it means having to be a lot more braver in expressing myself, and more than anything else, l’m very grateful.
“Isa siyang malaking bagay na napili po akong gawin ito,” pahayag niya.
“To be the face of it, malaki siyang karangalan sa ‘kin and I hope that I did them proud. I hope that the team and my new family is proud about the new calendar.
“Sana, marami maging masaya at matuwa sa aking ginawa a few months ago pa,” dugtong niya.
Dagdag pa ni Julia, hindi rin siya nababahala na mabansagang sex symbol dahil sa kanyang daring move.
“It’s something I guess…I don’t think it bothers me so much. Actually I am flattered.
“As you grow older you end up being more confident in who you are, in your own skin. If that translates people to be brave, to come out of their shell, I’ll take it. It’s a compliment at the end of the day,” hirit niya.
Tulad ng nagawa niya sa pelikulang “Expensive Candy,” layunin daw niya na maipakita ang kakaibang Julia na bukod sa oozing sa sex appeal ay confident din in her own skin.
“I’m grateful for projects like these that pushes me to be more confident in what I am. These things I do only help me become a more secure and braver woman,” bulalas niya. Archie Liao
