Everyone loves makeovers and this former sexy star is about to get one.
One of the names you can expect to crop up during the filing of candidacy next month is former Viva Hot Babe member Andrea del Rosario.
In an exclusive interview with push.com.ph, Andrea said she hopes to shed her sexy actress vibe and switch over to vice-mayor mode.
“I am considering it… at parang do’n na nga yata ang punta ko,” Andrea said.
Andrea plans to run for office in Calatagan, Batangas, one of the hometowns where she spent most of her childhood. She says she now wants to be part of its future.
“Since I was a child, do’n na rin ako… parang bakasyunan narin naming ever since. I grew up seeing kung paano nag-improve yung town namin. That awareness of what is Calatagan now and what I hope it would be someday,” Andrea shares.
Andrea is taking this move seriously. As she turned down soap operas and other projects in showbusiness, she was able to finish her Masters in Entrepreneurship at the Ateneo. Andrea explains she tried very hard to show her “kabayans” that they could count on her.
“Kaya ako nagpahinga muna sa showbiz is I don’t want to fool may kababayans na papasok lang ako kung kailan campaign na. I don’t want to do that to them. Ayoko ng ganun… Pinapakita ko lang sa kanila that I’m serious about it. That I really want to be there, and be their leader… parang ganu’n,” Andrea said.
The former Star Magic talent now believes her hardwork has been paying off.
“One year to go na lang and then we’ll see from there if it’s really for me or fits my purpose in life, so we’ll see,” she said.
