Young star Jackie Rice is ecstatic over her upcoming film "Sa Ngalan ng Busabos" with boxing star Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao.
In an interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Rice said that when she was cast to do a movie with the world's number one pound-for-pound boxer, her first reaction was: "You've got to be joking."
The actress admitted that she, like millions of Filipinos, is an avid fan of the "Pambansang Kamao."
"Masaya po. Akala ko [talaga] nagbibiro lang ang handler ko na kasama ko siya. Pero siyempre ayaw kong ipakita na fan ako. Noong huli, hindi ko na maitago na fan ako kasi sobrang bait [niya], " she said.
Rice, who has already shot some of the film's crucial scenes, described her high-profile co-star as "nice, generous, and sweet."
"Hindi ko ini-expect na ganoon siya kabait. Sobrang open sa lahat. Nagbibiro [siya] sa mga mahihirap [kasi] may mga fans din doon," Rice said.
"Nagpapakain siya sa lahat. Gusto niya kapag kakain siya, kakain ang lahat," she added.
Asked if she is ready to face possible intrigues as Pacman's sexy co-star, Rice said she has nothing to worry about.
"Hindi po, wala pong dapat ikatakot kasi isa po akong fan at malinis ang hangarin ko. Nirerespeto ko po ang anak niya at asawa niya, at hindi kailangan (ma-link ako sa kanya) kasi sobrang bata ko po."
Rice also revealed that she has decided to take on more mature roles after she posed for sexy men's magazine "Maxim." She is the magazine's cover girl for July this year.
"Gusto ko mas mature, pero ayaw ko pa ding iwan ang pagka-wholesome," the young actress said.
Rice admitted that she had to work out and monitor her food intake to prepare for the skin-baring photo shoot. "Hindi ako kumain. Nag-diet taga ako to the highest level na parang 'kailangan ko pa bang gawin yan?' At nakuha ko naman. Ang ganda naman ng result," Rice said.
Jackie Rice, an Olongapo-born model and actress, was hailed the "Ultimate Female Survivor" on the third season of reality show "StarStruck."
