For all the levels of physical undress that you have seen of Kristine Jaca in the past and are presently seeing here, the former Viva Hot Babe somehow manages to keep her guard on and remain mysterious. She looks at you with those big imploring eyes, taunting and inviting at the same time, and somehow you are at her mercy. She answers questions the way she feels comfortable answering them, only revealing certain aspects of herself she feels like sharing.
Not that she has a lot to conceal, no. Kristine Jaca just happens to be an enigmatic bombshell. Where others would go on making a playground of the world, Kristine would rather keep to herself and stay home. “When I’m out, I can’t wait to get back home,” she laughs.
So, it absolutely feels great to be able to get her out of hiding and into our arms. “Since I started with FHM before, yung respect ko for FHM is still there that’s why I agreed,” she says rather seriously. And so, lucky bastards that we all are, gentlemen, have the privilege of having Kristine back in the game.
How are you Kristine? It’s been a while. Mabuting-mabuti naman. Actually stuck ako ngayon sa house. I have laid out for a while dahil napagod na rin siguro ako doing sexy. But now I’m back.
To do sexy still? No. When you guys called, I was shocked at first because I’ve said before I won’t do sexy na. But since I started with FHM, the respect for FHM is still there kaya I agreed.
Why the apprehension with sexiness? I got tired of it, I suppose. I want to do other things but no one would trust me I guess.
Does being stereotyped as a sexy star frustrate you? Hindi naman, but I don’t want to be known for the rest of my life as a sexy starlet. I’ve been at it for about six years na and most of us, stepping stone lang naman ang pagpapasexy.
If you were given a chance, what role would you like to do? I’d like to be a kontrabida in drama series. That’s the opposite of me, kasi. I control myself a lot, not to get angry in front of other people. I keep it all inside so siguro pag medyo maldita ako, malalabas ko kahit papaano. Ha ha ha!
Well, would you say there are a lot of things bottled up inside? Ano lang, I’m happy. I’m content with my life but I’m sad because I want more but I can’t do it. Hindi siya sama ng loob, frustration lang. They want me to do things that I’d rather not do anymore.
If you had your chance, would you want to be freer? Because you mentioned controlling yourself a lot… In a way, yes pero ganun ako talaga, eh. Before, I don’t get angry that quickly. If something pisses me off, yung galit inside lang talaga. So how would people know what you’re feeling? I tell them when I’m okay na. Because I don’t’ want to say something stupid. Di ba when you’re mad, nakakapagsalita ka nang hindi maganda? I don’t want to do that so I keep quiet nalang.
How are you with the other Viva Hot Babes? We’re friends but we don’t see each other anymore. They still have the group pero hindi na ako nakakasama.
Are you seeing anybody right now? I’m still with the same guy for four years now.
Wow, four years. Can you tell us the secret to keeping long-term relationships? Most of my relationships are long-term. I think they are right when they say na nasa babae talaga ang pagdadala ng relationship.
So, how do you carry your relationship? When I feel that the guy doesn’t like me anymore, or that he doesn’t want to be with me anymore, I’d rather [break it up and] get hurt than stay with him. I won’t force myself. It’s better if the guy loves the girl more or gives more to the relationship than the girl. I’m not talking about the guy I’m seeing ha? Right now, equal kami [with the level of love and effort in the relationship]. What if you’re the one who wants out of the relationship? I give way. I try to work it out.
What’s the one thing that would make you not want to work things out? Cheating.
Ooh. Does that stem from a particular experience? Yeah, I think so. Walang umaamin nun. Maybe he did something—or not, intuition ko lang eh. So pinaramdam ko na sige lang, darating yung time na you’ll feel what I’m feeling.
What did you do? I waited until my feelings were gone before I broke it off. I dated, too! Alam kong malalaman niya at alam kong aalamin niya. I made sure na malaman niya. Ha ha ha! Sama no?
What would you say is the biggest misconception about you? A lot. First, na mataray ako. Second, na nagbebenta ako ng katawan. Or kumakapit sa patalim.
Does it bother you? I can’t tell every single person na I’m not like that, right? And besides, mas kilala ko sarili ko than any one of you. For me if I’m really like that I should’ve been there na, I should’ve done that na. So that’s why I’d really rather stay home than do stupid things.
Given the chance, how would you like others to know you? I am a person with dignity. Ever since I was a kid, yun talaga yung tinuro ng dad ko sa akin. Kahit na sabihin na nating I’m showing off my body. I’m just showing it. No one can touch it. I’m not for sale. But slowly, I can feel that the respect is coming na. Unlike before, hindi ko talaga maintindihan kung bakit ako binabastos. Now that I’m not there, I’m outside the situation, nakikita ko na. You cannot blame them, especially the closed-minded ones. Dahil ikaw yung mas may alam, ikaw na lang yung dapat umiwas. That’s why hindi na rin ako lumalabas masyado.
Wow, so much maturity. Yes, a lot has changed since before. I’m more open-minded now. Sometimes pag na-iisip ko yung before, natatawa nalang ako.
Yeah, like what? Before I used to go out a lot. When I started in show business, or when I resigned from the company that I worked at before, feeling ko this is the real world! So I used to go out all the time, get drunk all the time. When I’m out now, I just want to go home. Are you ready to settle down? No, hindi pa. It’s hard to say. My partner and I, we’re not stable yet. We’re both not stable enough to get into married life, have kids. Pag magkasama kami, enjoy lang. We don’t’ talk about it. I’m not like that eh, I find it so corny! And even if I like him, I would never ask him to marry me, or drop hints. I’d wait for someone to ask me. So, what if he asks you? That I don’t know. Ha ha ha! We’ll see na lang. Balitaan ko kayo!
