“Very happy ako kasi anak namin ‘yan ni [I’m very happy because he’s my child with] Daboy [Rudy Fernandez],” said the 51-year-old multiawarded actress. 

“Hindi ko inaasahan na [I didn’t expect that] he will be good in acting. Iba kasi ang hilig niyan noon. [He was into other things before.] Yun pala sa showbiz din ang bagsak niya [In the end, he’d go into showbiz].

“Hindi ko naman siya pinilit sa showbiz [I didn’t persuade him to go there]. Once they were finished with school, sila na ang mag-decide sa gusto nilang gawin [my children were left to decide for themselves].

“Nagulat na lang ako [I was surprised] when Renz said he wants to try acting. Kaya heto, aktor na aktor na siya tulad ng daddy niya [So there you go, he’s very much an actor like his dad].”

Does she share some acting tips with her son?

“Yung mga simpleng tips lang. Just understand your character. Alamin niya ‘yung mga specific details ng role [He should know the specific details about the role] and start creating it in your mind.

“And, of course, act from the heart. Diyan manggagaling lahat ng mga emotions na kailangan mo [That’s where you’ll draw the emotions you’ll need] for your role.”

Lorna herself has a new project coming – GMA’s “Genesis,” a “sci-fi” teleserye with political overtones.

She reunites with Dingdong Dantes, with whom Lorna T last appeared in “Pahiram ng Sandali” where their characters became caught in an illicit May-December romance, a highlight of that hit serye last year. – Rappler.com
