This is what Andrea Brillantes said about this viral scene.
ABS-CBN star Andrea Brillantes has this to say about the much-talked-about scene she did with Jake Cuenca in “Batang Quiapo”.
Coco Martin’s “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo” series is now on its second season, and previously, a set of new characters was unlocked. Among the new Batang Quiapo cast members are Andrea Brillantes, Jake Cuenca, Angel Aquino, Juan Rodrigo, Paolo Paraiso, Gillian Vicencio, Shamaine Buencamino, and veteran stars Michael de Mesa, Albert Martinez, Dante Rivero, Chanda Romero, and Celia Rodriguez.
In the teaser that was dropped before the official start of the season, the bathtub scene of Andrea and Jake went viral. It was a steamy and daring scene between two actors, and for the actress, this marked a new chapter in her career. She is embracing versatility as an actress.
Recently, she spoke about the viral scene and admitted that the behind-the-scenes were hard. According to her, as Blythe, it was difficult, but as her screen name, she had no problems at all as it was a part of her job.
She initially had doubts about doing it and was asking herself if it was already the right time. For a few times, she even did counseling and asked for the Lord’s guidance. She was also concerned about how her fans would react and expected to receive violent reactions.
She also quipped, “Nagawa ko siya and thankful ako sa mga reactions ng mga tao.”
Brillantes also acknowledges her job as an actress and expressed that she could never claim her versatility if she won’t do this. She added, “Time to explore, time to accept new roles, challenging roles!”
Speaking about Cuenca, she shared that it was awkward at first as he was like her big brother. She expressed, “Nung dati kong naka-work ko siya, I was just 14 lang noon. Tinawanan na lang namin pero kasi parehas kaming aktor.”
