ACCORDING to Janine Gutierrez there has never been an issue with her current boyfriend Rayver Cruz about her kissing scene with Enchong Dee in her latest movie “Elise”.
Enchong is Rayver’s best friend in showbiz, Janine’s leading man in the said movie.
“Sinabi ko [kay Rayver]. Ikinuwento ko na may kissing scene kami.
“Nakakatawa lang kasi, well, siyempre, understood naman yun kasi trabaho.
“Natatawa siya kasi nga si Enchong na sobrang close sila, kaya naiintindihan ko na para sa kanila ay parang weird.
“Parang, ‘Shocks, bro, o kung ano man.’
“Ang funny lang kasi, parang si Enchong nagloloko na, ‘I think I lost a friend.’ Ganun.
“Tapos, si Rayver naman parang, ‘Grabe naman si Enchong, ‘ habang umiiling-iling siya.
“[Sabi niya], ‘Mag-ingat ka diyan kay Enchong.’ Gumaganun siya.”
What was her reaction with whqat Rayver told her?
“Ano naman, natatawa lang ako sa kanilang dalawa.
“So, medyo mas madali para sa akin bilang silang dalawa naman talaga ang close.
“Comfortable din ako kasi, friend ko rin si Enchong.
“Mas madali sa kanya yung eksenang halikan.”
For Janine this is a challenging movie.
It is Regal Films’ initial offering for 2019.
“Exciting!
“Di naman po masyadong pressured, kasi, gusto ko naman sana din na bigyan ng chance ng mga tao ang Elise, kasi feeling ko mag-e-enjoy din naman sila.
“Kasi, yung story ay sa tingin ko ay magugulat din ang mga tao.
“Natuwa ako trailer kaya sana, pagbigyan din kami ng pagkakataon na tangkilikin nila ang movie.”
Janine admits that this movie is entirely different from her movie with Enchong titled “Lila” in 2016.
“Second din na rin kasi namin ito ni Enchong.
“May ginawa kaming indie movie, Lila ang title. For Sinag Maynila Festival naman noon.
“Gino Santos movie yun, and super iba naman sa Elise, kasi yun ay dark, thriller and iba yung feel din dahil indie.
“Heto, sobrang ibang-iba.”
How was her second movie with Enchong?
“Masaya. Sobrang masayang kasama ni Enchong.
“Kalog din po, at saka, hindi pilit yung mga usapan namin.
“Alam mo yun, di siya small talk na kapag nagkukumustahan kami sa isa’t isa, dahil gusto talaga naming malaman kung ano ang ginawa mo, kumusta ka na, okay ka lang ba?
“Kapag pagod kami, tulog muna kami, kain kami. So, natural lang, natural lang.”
“Elise” opens in cinemas on February 6. Produced by Regal Entertainment, under the direction of Joel Ferrer.

CLINT BONDAD divulges reason why he left ASAP Coverboys, a boy group that used to appear in ABSCBN’s Sunday noontime variety show.
The other Coverboys are Luis Hontiveros, Tommy Esguerra, Tanner Mata, and Albie Casino.
Clint used to be a part of the show’s boy group, ASAP Coverboys, which was launched in 2017.
Other members of the group were: Albie Casiño, Luis Hontiveros, Tommy Esguerra, and Tanner Mata.
In an Instagram post on Monday, January 21, Clint shared a then-and-now topless photo, which came with his explanation on why he left the ASAP boy group.
Clint wrote in the caption, “Just to put this topic finally to rest! WHY did I leave ASAP Coverboys?
“The left picture is from when I was part of the group a year ago and the picture on the right is only 3 weeks later AFTER leaving them! I looked like a shipwreck survivor.”
Back then, he had two business startups, which demanded much of his time and focus.
Aside from that, Clint was juggling his modelling and acting career, along with his ASAP stint.
joining ASAP, Clint was also a part of Erich Gonzales and Daniel Matsunaga’s now defunct daytime series, Be My Lady.
Clint continued, “BUT on TOP of that of course I was managing a modelling and great acting career that required me to give 3-4 days a week to ASAP Coverboys and working out daily since you are also expected to be fit on TV even if you feel close to dying haha.
“However I loved it! We grow from struggle and we can get more AGGRESSIVE when faced by it! Gets me excited! You can only truly know from experience!
“But drive can be unchecked sometimes and my body was falling apart eventually even though my mind was just getting warm! Still human.
“So I simply chose my business over ASAP. That’s the whole story! ABS-CBN was phenomenal to me!”
Clint, who is also known as the boyfriend of Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray, now appears in GMA-7’s Unang Hirit.
