23 celebrity quotes of 2023
(Conclusion)
Here’s the second part of our quotable quotes from 2023.
Bela Padilla —CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
BELA PADILLA: JC Santos and I never felt pressured to date in order to have chemistry. I’m glad we are unlike most love teams who are real-life couples. When they break up, their love team crumbles.
JULIA BARRETTO: For me, an ex must remain an ex. No second chances allowed.
SID LUCERO: I am game for anything as long as I am comfy with my coactors and I like the story. I don’t want to get in the way of a filmmaker’s vision by acting up on the set.
Ruru Madrid —RURU MADRID/ FACEBOOK
RURU MADRID: Fame is a bonus. I’ve come a long, hard way. Nobody believed in me before. So I want my success story to inspire people to reach their full potential. I should not let the praise get to my head because it might make me complacent. Neither should I let bashing affect me because it will make me lose focus on my craft.
JOEY REYES: I love working with newbies because they have the least attitude and maximum enthusiasm. I let them know that acting is more than just looking good and that being an actor is so different from being a mere celebrity.
Andrea Torres —GMA NETWORK
ANDREA TORRES: When I put an end to a relationship, it has really ended. I don’t use the words “let’s break up” loosely. I tend to hold on and try to save what we have as much as I can so when I decide to let go, I know in my heart I have nothing more to give. I have closure and acceptance.
JAKE CUENCA: The best thing I did in my career was to march to the beat of my own drum. Why be molded into a certain image when you can do so much more?
Judy Ann Santos
JUDY ANN SANTOS: I don’t know what it’s like to grow up with a dad around. So when I see Ryan dote on our kids, it feels like I’m watching a movie.
GRACE POE: Lovi hugged me and said, “Ate, thank you for accepting me.” I was taken aback that she said this, because it was I who oftentimes felt insecure. Unlike Lovi, I’m not a biological child of our dad.
KYLIE VERZOSA: Money is just one factor in a relationship. There are other important factors like honesty, trust, commitment, etc. Even if your man spoils you with material stuff, that’s worthless if he does not treat you right.
CRISTINE REYES: Not everyone understands how heavy the work of actors is. So we need people who can help us lighten up. That’s why it’s a plus factor if a guy can make me laugh.
KYLIE PADILLA: My ex Aljur (Abrenica) and I were quite unhappy just before we separated. When you love someone, you don’t like seeing them unhappy. And instead of forcing it, I knew we were better off apart. Moving on is a long process. The only way to truly heal is to feel it. When worse comes to worst, repeat this quote in your head, “Nabuhay naman ako nang wala siya before ko siya makilala, kaya ko ulit ng wala siya.” That’s what I do.
