Melanie Marquez wants daughter to join Bb. Pilipinas

-


Beauty queen turned actress Melanie Marquez has said that she encourages her daughter Michelle Dee to follow her footsteps and join the Binibining Pilipinas beauty pageant soon.

"She has the looks. She has the x-factor, she has the height (5'11) and she's lady like unlike me who is rebellious," said Marquez, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS-CBN recently.

Michelle, 21, is the daughter of Melanie and businessman Frederick Dee.

Marquez, 52, won the Bb. Pilipinas-International in 1979. Few months later, she competed in Miss International pageant in Tokyo, Japan and won.

She also ventured into modelling here and abroad.

Marquez gave advice to her daughter who is now one of the popular newcomers in the fashion world.

"Kailangan nyang maging original. Wag syang maging copycat. Hindi ka sisikat kapag copycat ka," she said.

"Ang sikreto kasi ng fashion is you have to be comfortable within yourself. Kahit na ano ang suutin mo, basta comfortable ka, go for it," Marquez added.

On her children's love affair, Marquez said that she could only pray for their happiness.

"Sa tutoo lang, it's all up to my children. Hindi ako yung tipong makiki-alam. As long as your kids are happy at minamahal sila, I will always go for that kasi sa akin basta masaya, immaterial na 'yung ibang bagay sa akin. Ang material na bagay hindi talaga importante sa akin," she said.

Marquez also thanked the followers of "A Love to Last" which stars Bea Alonzo, Ian Veneracion and Iza Calzado.

She has also wished that she could play the role of a crazy woman in the future.

"Yung mabigat na role? Luka-luka. Mahihirapan ako kung drama," said Marquez as she laughed when asked about her dream role.

Marquez said that she wants millennials to know her as a true friend who never gets old.

"Isang tapat na kaibigan. Hindi tumatanda sa ugali, sa puso at sa diwa. Laging positive thinker," she said, when asked how she would like the millennials to know her. - Robert R. Requintina

And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh.
