Kaye Abad: From sweet to daring
Kaye Abad has shed sweet, wholesome image for a more mature, daring one.
She had intimate scenes with JM de Guzman in the first installment of ABS-CBN’s afternoon drama “Angelito: Ang Bagong Yugto” and graced the cover of the men’s magazine FHM.
“Sa pagiging more daring, hindi naman (sa) desisyon, parang kusa na lang siyang dumating. Siguro nakita nila na medyo may edad na rin ako. Hindi na bagay sa akin yung mga roles dati. Kailangan ko na ng mga mas mature (roles),” she told Yahoo! OMG Philippines at the press conference in the ABS-CBN compound on Wednesday, July 18.
The 30-year-old actress is also paired with another younger man, John Prats, in “Angelito.”

“Nagugulat ako kasi yung mga pinapartner sa akin mga bagets. Yung mga decision making lang siguro na nagagawa ko, yung hanggang saan lang ang limitation sa pagpapasexy,” she added.
Kaye feels different playing opposite John because they’ve known each other since they were younger. She admits feeling pressured about making their tandem work again since her first team-up with John in the original version of “Angelito” clicked.
“Ito kasi kay John nahirapan ako dahil parang kapatid ko si John, at the same time nakita ko siyang tumanda, kumbaga naging kapatid ko talaga siya. Habang na-witness ko lahat ng naging girlfriends niya, pero mukha namang nag-wo-work. Nakapag-taping na kami at naging okay naman. Minsan lang kapag may sinasabi siya na girlfriend niya ako, kinikilabutan ako,” Kaye joked.
Kaye has limitations in going sexy, though.
“Sa pagpapasexy, kung kailangan talaga sa storya at kung depende sa direction, kung paano yung treatment ng director. At wala yung ‘only wearing this.’ Kahit papano naman, may suot na damit.”
Aside from Kaye and John, “Angelito: Ang Bagong Yugto” stars JM (again in the title role), Charee Pineda, Snooky Serna, Sam Concepcion and others.
