'PBB' ex-housemate Kira Balinger open to doing kontrabida roles
MANILA, Philippines — Former "Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition" housemate Kira Balinger is among the housemates who are given the second chance to enter the famous TV house by the end of this week's online poll, but for now, the young actress said she is ready to veer away from her protagonist roles.
Kira, along with her fellow ex-housemate Emilio Daez, talked to the press in the recent press conference hosted by their talent agency, Star Magic. Unlike her though, Emilio will not be going back inside the house due to "prior commitments."
Kira revealed that she was an introvert before going inside the house.
“Everything played out exactly how it was supposed to. It may have taken me longer than the others to open up, but I'm super proud of my experience. I'm happy with my journey inside the house, and I don't think there's anything I would like to redo," Kira said.
"Before going into PBB, sobrang introverted ko po. I had a very hard time socializing with people my age. Pero ngayon po na nag-'PBB' ako, na-survive ko 'yon, and I know that I have good people as my friends...In other words, sobrang nag-improve po 'yong social skills ko,” the actress added.
Previously seen in shows and films like “Darna,” “Chances Are, You and I,” and “Maple Leaf Dreams,” Kira talked about her future plans in acting.
“For the longest time po, I've always been doing the bida roles — the good girl roles, the rich girl — so I really want to try, kontrabida naman... 'Yon, at saka ano... nahihiya ako sabihin — pero, Dyesebel. Dyesebel talaga. 'Yon yung isa sa mga dream roles ko. "
On the other hand, when Kira was asked if she'd be open to working with Emilio on something like a potential second season of “Bagani,” stepping into the roles originally played by Enrique Gil and Liza Soberano.
“Absolutely. 'Bagani,' that was super iconic. To follow in their footsteps, that would be a huge honor," Kira said.
