Kim Chiu gives advice on dating playboys

With the first made-for-mobile series Must Date the Playboy on it’s fourth successful episode, Kim Chiu said she has lots of blessings in her life with her Star Cinema movie Etiquette for Mistresses also set to premiere end of this month. “Malapit na siya. I'm very excited and sobra akong kinakabahan sana suportahan nila ako. It's hard pero nandun yung realization kaya tinanggap ko siya, ako yung young and first time na mistress. Kami yung different kinds of mistresses. Etiquette for Mistresses is comedy na drama. It's all about mistresses and heto yung life nila. Kung gusto mo ng ganitong buhay or ayaw mo ng ganitong life, nandun yung movie,” she shared.

Working with her perennial love team partner Xian Lim and former Pinoy Big Brother co-housemate Matt Evans was also an added bonus for the Kapamilya actress. What was new for Kim was working with Jessy Mendiola. “Sila kasi kakilala ko na talaga. Siguro kay Jessy lang first time ko siya maka-work and makasama kasi usually sa ASAP lang kami. And then eto yung full length talaga na magkasama kami ni Jessy. Medyo nahiya ako ng konti pero andiyan naman si kuya Matt so barkada kaming tatlo. So at least tatlo kaming nagtatawanan. And then si Xian madami na rin kaming projects na pinagdaanan and si direk Mae Alviar din,” she said.

In the Star Flix mobile series, Kim plays a girl who wants to teach a playboy a lesson by making him fall for her as revenge for her best friend. In real life, Kim said she tries to stay away from guys who are serial daters. But if there is any advice she can give towards dating playboys, the 25-year-old actress offered this for women as organized as her character Tori. “Siguro para sa isang taong mahilig mag to-do list, una hindi niya siguro idi-date ang isang playboy. Wala yun sa list niya na parang organized kasi siya. Ang isang playboy alam naman natin parang jock, parang guwapo lang sila pero pagdating sa kuwarto nila ang dumi dumi ng bedroom nila. I don't know, ganun siguro. As Tori hindi ko i-di-date ang isang playboy. Si Tori kasi na-date ang niya ang isang playboy kasi may utang na loob siya kay Chloe na gumanti dun sa boyfriend niya na playboy para turuan ng leksiyon. Parang ipapa-fall in love niya kay Tori tapos after that sasaktan niya, yung ganun.” 

When asked if she personally would date a playboy, Kim surprised the media by candidly admitting, “Parang (laughs). Hindi naman na bago yun. As Kim siyempre marupok ka lang, babae ka, wala kang to-do list (laughs). Siguro may mga times in life na mag-date ka rin ng playboy para matuto ka, para hindi mo na gawin ulit sa susunod mong jowa,” she admitted.

After these projects, Kim admitted she is excited to go to New York City to start work on KimXi’s teleserye comeback. “Yes one month so parang exciting din to do a different role na close to the heart sa mga overseas Filipino workers. The working title is The Story of Us,” she admitted.
