- Ni JOJO PANALIGAN

ALAM ng actress- turned- politician na si

Cristina Gonzales-Romualdez ang pressure na kinakahara­p ng mga celebrity sa pagpapanat­ili ng kanilang magandang pangangata­wan.

“Whenever people bump into a celebrity and he or she happens to have gained weight, some will say ‘Is that (insert celebritie­s name)? Wasn’t she sexy before? Look how fat she is now,’” lahad ng Tacloban City mayor. Aniya pa, sobrang mapanlait ng ilang netizen. “So, celebritie­s are more conscious now because your photos stay forever on the web. Then people will bash you, ‘Oh she’s so fat! She’s too old!’”

Hindi hinahayaan ni Cristina na ma-stress sa mga ganitong g bagay. Binigyang-diin niya: “We’ll all age. Just do what you can because use it’s also our duty to be healthy and age gracefully, especially for us women.” BEAUTY TIPS Kahit maedad na ay nananatili­ng maganda pa rin si Cristina, kaya aya nakagugula­t malaman na ang ng kanyang beauty regimen ay simple mple lang.

“You know w me, I’m really just simple,” imple,” natatawang g sabi niya. “I’m not ‘high maintenanc­e’ I just usually blow dry my hair and that’s hat’s it.”

Dahil sa kanyang heavy y work schedule, e, 20 hanggang g 30 minuto lang g siya nakakapag- gehersisyo araw- awaraw.

“I try to o be relaxed even when I’m under pressure as we need to do that especially at my age. I do treadmill at home, I sometimes walk, and I play badminton when I have time,” dagdag pa niya.

Tinanong din namin siya kung tinangka niya bang sumailalim sa beauty enhancemen­t treatments.

“I believe in that naman. Why not, right? There’s a lot high-tech procedures right now to help maintain your beauty. I don’t wanna be pretentiou­s, denying I don’t believe in those stuffs,” sabi ni Cristina.

BASHERS: BOO!

Sabi nga ni Cristina, bashers are unstoppabl­e. Bakit? Kasi mismong siya ay nakatatang­gap pa rin ng mga pambabatik­os kahit na iniwan n na niya ang showbiz, ilang taon na ang nakalipas. “People tend to have an initial im impression of ‘She’s not even a graduate of a polit political-related course! She’s just an actress, what wha does she know?’” sabi niya. “Maybe that’s why when you’re from showbiz and you enter ent politics, you tend to double, triple and quad quadruple your efforts in serving the people.” Ayon pa kay Cristina, mahalaga ma na magtiwala sa Diyos dahil kung minsan, m kahit na nagawa mo na ang best mo, h hindi pa rin maiiwasan na maganap ang mga m bagay nang hindi naaayon sa kagustuhan kagus mo. Dagdag pa niya, na kahit anong mangyari, laging alalahanin na kontrolado kontro Niya ang mga nagaganap. Naisip bang bumalik ni Cristina sa entertainm­ent industry? “If it is a challengin­g role, r maybe? But I don’t have time ri right now. In the past, especially when w I got into politics, it’s ha hard to fly in and out of Manila t to shoot and of course you have ha to shoot for 24 hours (sometimes) (s and go out of town,” sabi ni Cristina.
