Iwa Moto is more at ease in Villain roles

IWA MOTO’s last show was “Ina, Kasusuklaman Ba Kita” six months ago. “Yung mga kasama ko roon, nagkaroon na ng ibang shows, like Jean and Jennica Garcia,” she says. “Jean was in ‘Ilumina’ and Jennica, in ‘Bantatay’. Ngayon lang ako uli nabigyan ng project, ‘Dwarfina’, and as usual, kontrabida na naman ako, this time kay Heart Evangelista. I play Lucille, kapatid niyang ampon na naiinggit sa kanya. I’m not complaining na nabakante ko kasi nakatulong ang rest ko dahil naging masakitin ako after I had problematic four wisdom teeth pulled. Di ako makakain properly kaya kulang ako sa potassium at walang energy. Now, ready na uli ako sa magdamagang taping.”

Some people thought she got married and gave birth. “Naku, ilang beses ng natsismis na nagpakasal kami ng BF ko, pero di naman totoo. I-check nila kahit saan civil registrar’s office kung nag-asawa na ko’t nagkaanak at bibigyan ko ng prize ang sinumang makakakuha ng ebidensiya diyan. Wala naman silang makikita. Pero aminado kong happy ko sa boyfriend, very contented.”

Isn’t Iwa tired of villain roles? Doesn’t she dream of being a lead like Glaiza de Castro? “Maski mag-dream ako, alam kong di ko pa kaya magbida. I’m not confident kaya okay na kong magkontra na siyang nag-aapi, nananampal kaysa ako yung inaapi’t sinasampal. I trust the judgment of GMA. If ever sabihin nila, o magbida ka na, di sige, go! They know what’s best for their talents.”
