GMA 7, Launches Bakekang with a Bang

Naka-prosthetics si Sunshine Dizon nang humarap sa cast presentation-press launch ng Bakekang nu'ng Monday ng gabi.

Pinalapad ang ilong at may dentures na nakalagay sa totoong ngipin para magmukha itong malaki at umalsa.

Sa press interview, kinailangang alisin muna ni Sunshine ang dentures para makapagsalita nang mabuti.

Hindi naman daw siya nahihirapan at medyo hirap lang 'pag mini-make-up-an na, dahil inaabot ito ng isang oras.

Pero ang naging pinaka-sentro ng aming usapan ay ang tungkol sa pinagpipistahang issue na diumano'y unprofessional siya at sakit ng ulo sa taping, to the point na nag-walkout pa sa set.

Mahaba ang paliwanag ni Sunshine. "To start it off, I was hospitalized last August. At that time, I was still taping for Captain Barbell. Naospital po ako because of my lower back problems, because of my spine.

"I was going through my second steroid para sa disc bulge ko but unfortunately, hindi naging ganu'n ka-successful 'yung second shot. So, I was in the hospital for almost a week.

"Tapos, two days lang po akong nagpahinga sa bahay. Actually, hindi pa nga po pahinga because I had to do voice over na po for Barbell.

"Then, on the third day out from the hospital, I taped agad po for Barbell. Everyday na po 'yun diri-diretso, until they had to rush everything na because I had to start taping for Bakekang.

"So, as it is, my body never healed properly. Kasi my doctor was asking for a two-week rest, but hindi ko ma-afford because kailangan kong tapusin ang Barbell at umpisahan ang Bakekang, naghahabol kami ng airing date, eh.

"Knowing that, mayroon po kaming tahimik na usapan ng management as per the advise of my doctor, na if it's possible for me to work for not more than 12 hours.

"So, most probably, may mga ibang tao siguro na hindi naman naiintindihan kung ano talaga ang nangyayari sa akin, most likely, na-misinterpret nila 'yung mga pag-uwi-uwi ko, kasi hindi naman nila alam na may cut-off time ako."

Pero ngayon, binago na ang cut-off time at more than 12 hours na, although depende pa rin sa sitwasyon.

"As long as alam ko namang kaya ko, pinipilit namin. 'Pag hindi ko na kaya, the production is very considerate naman na pauuwin na lang ako."

Hindi raw ganu'n kasimple ang kanyang sakit sa likod dahil knock on wood, puwede raw siyang ma-paralyze kung hindi mag-iingat.

Sumama raw ang loob niya sa mga negative write-ups at alam naman daw niya na may mga taong hindi masaya na nakuha niya ang role.

"Hindi pa man nagsisimula, ang dami na agad nasulat. Na hindi raw ako deserving sa character, I'm very hard to work with, ecetera, etcetera, and hindi naman nila alam talaga 'yung situation.

"Ako po, hindi ko po hiningi ang "Bakekang". Sa totoo lang po, wala po talaga akong idea na sa akin ibibigay. Ang alam ko lang, marami nang pangalang lumabas. Pero wala sa hinagap ko na ako si Bakekang.

"Actually, nang ipinatawag nga po ako ni Tita Wilma (Galvante), ang wini-wish ko pa, sana makasama ako sa "Atlantika", eh. Ako naman po kasi, hindi po mahilig humingi ng mga bagay, kung ano lang po ang ibigay sa akin.

"And you have to understand that at that time, I was doing Captain Barbell at napakaganda ng character ko du'n na naputol na nga coz I had to do this.

"You know, alam ko naman that some people are not happy that I got the part," pahayag pa ni Sunshine.

Ngayong naklaro na ni Sunshine ang kanyang panig, siguro ay medyo nabawasan na ang sama ng loob niya at makakapag-concentrate na sa kanyang teleserye na magsisimula na ang airing sa September 11.

For her last words, Sunshine has this to say: "I know that some people do not agree with my opinion because I'm very opinionated. Oftentimes, nami-misinterpret ako ng ibang tao. Some people may hate me but you know, nandito ako dahil gusto kong mag-artista. Gusto kong maging pinakamahusay na artista na kakayanin ko. Hindi ko pinangarap na maging Superstar, I just want people to remember me as me - a good actress. 'Yun lang ang pangarap ko at gagawin ko ang lahat ng makakaya ko to make "Bakekang" work.
