Katrina Halili

Katrina Halili is known as much for topping FHM Philippines’ Sexiest Women list twice as she is for that pesky sex video. But, that controversial chapter of her life is now water under the bridge for the 32-year-old “StarStruck” alumna.

Gusto ko, ’yung love n’ya mabubuo sa family … that she doesn’t need to seek it from other people. And I want her to have a relationship with God—that’s all I want for her.

You’re often cast in kontrabida roles. What do you think about when you’re required to be mean in those teleseryes? Actually, wala. I don’t think about anybody. But, when I was I kid, I was fond of watching those Mexican drama series, so that has helped me figure out [what to do with characterization]. Kung ano ang dapat ginagawa ng character ko, I just follow my instinct.
