Jessy Mendiola Denies Fame Got Into Her Head

Young actress Jessy Mendiola has belied rumors saying her popularity already went into her head after her debut teleserye "Sabel" became a hit.

In an interview with ABS-CBN News, Mendiola laughed off intrigues as she was reminded that other young leading ladies like Erich Gonzales, Empress Schuck and Andi Eigenmann also received the same criticism.

"Napaka-weird. Kasi lumabas na rin 'yang issue na 'yan kay Erich, kay Andi, kay Empress. Bakit lahat na lang tayo naga-ganun? Siguro nanibago lang po sila kasi kami rin po naninibago sa atensyon na nakukuha namin," she said.

"Kasi parang ibang level po pag napapasok mo na 'yung ganito, parang kailangan mong mas maging palaban... Siguro nasasabihan kami na lumalaki 'yung ulo namin kasi nag-iiba the way we carry ourselves, the way we answer. Pero all in all, kami pa rin naman po ito...Kaya para po sa 'kin, same size pa rin ulo ko. 'Di nagbago," she explained.


Mendiola also said she does not mind what other people say as long as her loved ones know the truth.

"As long as kilala ko po 'yung sarili ko, as long as 'yung mga tao sa paligid ko kilala ako, alam nilang 'di ako magbabago, wala na po akong mahihiling doon," she said.

When asked if she will be following the footsteps of the most sought after leading ladies like Bea Alonzo and Kim Chiu, Mendiola replied: "Hindi po ako ang magsasabi niyan eh. Pero sinasabi po nila na pwede daw akong makipagsabayan."

"Napakalaking responsibilidad naman nun. Napakalaking adjustment. I'm very honored lang na nasasama ako sa kanila kasi napakagaling nilang artista. Dati lang pinapanood ko sila. Parang napakasarap kapag sinasabi nila 'yun,"she added.

Meantime, the 17-year-old actress divulged that she will not go bolder and sexier as she wants to maintain her sweet, wholesome image.

"Ayoko po eh [ng full time sexy image].... After po ng 'Sabel' mas gusto kong mag-focus sa acting. Insecure po ako sa katawan ko eh. Hangga't sa pwede kong balutin 'yung sarili ko, babalutin ko talaga ang sarili ko," she said.

"Hindi ko po talaga kayang mag-full force sexy, mag-bikini... Hindi po ako confident magpa-sexy," she emphasized.
