Former Sexpot Rajah Montero Is Now Reborn As Ireen Cervantes Who Bares Her All In 'Area'

IREEN CERVANTES gives the most daring performance in “Area” as she has a scene where she does full frontal nudity after having sex with a barangay tanod. There’s also a scene where she removes her panties during a pap smear examination with a doctor. We were surprised after viewing the movie when producer Dennis Evangelista told us that Ireen is the former sexpot Rajah Montero who was introduced in sex flicks like “Sarap ng Umibig”, “Katas”, “Langit Mo Kaligayahan Ko” in 2003 when she was only 17 years old. She did other sexy flicks until 2008 then went back to oblivion after sex movies faded away.

She’s now managed by Rodel Fernando who recommended her to Dennis and to “Area” director Louie Ignacio. Didn’t she have second thoughts doing her very daring scenes in the movie? “No, kasi dati na naman akong nagpapa-sexy,” she says. “Also, Direk Louie explained to me what my role requires. Sabi niya, game ka ba? E, gusto ko talagang bumalik sa pag-arte. Nang mabakante kasi ako, nag-put up ako ng maliit na restaurant sa lugar namin, yung pares. Pero na-miss ko talaga ang showbiz so tinanggap ko agad ang role. Sabi ko, nagbabalik ako, kailangan, yung comeback ko, may malaking impact. Na-shocked din ako nang makita ko ang sarili ko sa movie, lalo yung inamoy ng doktor ang harapan ko at bigla siyang nahilo. Sa tunay na buhay, hindi naman gaano kabaho ang keps ko, no? Pero hindi naman ako nagsisisi kasi nang mapanood ko sa big screen, ang ganda talaga! Ito na ang pinakamagandang pelikulang nagawa ko. Nanalo pa ng award sa international filmfest, so puede talagang ipagmalaki.”

Why did she change her name to Ireen Cervantes? “Actually, yun ang real name ko. Sabi ni Dennis, since nagka-comeback ako, mas mabuting magsimula uli ng panibago at kalimutan na si Rajah Montero. Agree naman ako. Gusto ko nang kalimutan ang movies na ginawa ko noon. Bale itong ‘Area’ ang first movie ko at nagpapasalamat ako sa lahat ng mga kasama ko rito na puro mababait sa akin, lalo na kay Ms. Ai Ai de las Alas na marami kaming eksena at ang bait-bait niya. Ngayon, ang panalangin ko, sana masundan ito. Willing akong gumawa ng indie movies, kahit daring. At gusto ko ring masubukang makagawa ng teleserye. Sana magtuloy-tuloy.”

Don’t miss Ireen Cervantes and her daring nude scenes in “Area” which will be shown R-18 without cuts starring November 9.
