Jinggoy considering Shalani as leading lady in next film


She is reportedly the new co-host of a television game show and now Valenzuela City Councilor Shalani Soledad may also end up on the silver screen. On Monday, Senate Pro Tempore Jose "Jinggoy" Estrada disclosed that he is considering getting Soledad as his leading lady in his next fim. Soledad is considered as the "First Girlfriend," being the girlfriend of bachelor President Benigno Simeon Aquino III. Although there has been no confirmation, it is widely rumored that Soledad's relationship with Aquino has ended after two years. “Kung sa susunod na pelikula ko, magandang kunin si Shalani (In my next film, I think it would be good to cast Shalani as my leading lady)," Estrada told reporters in an interview. According to Estrada, who still makes movies from time to time, Soledad has the right to enter show business. "Meron siyang K, may karapatan na mag-artista (She has what it takes to become an actress)," he said. He added that even if Soledad did not enter politics, movie producers would still have seen her potential as a possible leading lady for famous movie actors. "Si Shalani kahit di siya pumasok sa pulitika, pwede naman siyang kunin sa showbiz at may potential na maging leading lady tapos marunong magsalita at marunong makihalubilo," he said. (Even if she didn't enter politics, she still would have been discovered because she knows how to talk and mingle with people.) As of posting time, GMANews.TV was still trying to reach Soledad for her comment on Estrada's remarks. Over the weekend, it was reported that Soledad would be the co-host of Willie Revillame's new game show, Willing Wille. (See: PNoy’s ex Shalani Soledad will be Willie Revillame's co-host?) Earlier in the day, no less than Aquino himself wished Soledad luck on her TV hosting job. (See: PNoy wishes Shalani luck on TV hosting job) — Kimberly Jane Tan/RSJ/VVP, GMANews.TV
