‘Mayroon lang kailangan move na gawin,’ Julia says after Cornerstone Entertainment announced last month they will manage her career

MANILA, Philippines – Actress Julia Montes talked about her decision to leave Star Magic and transfer to Cornerstone Entertainment, which is now handling her career.

Star Magic has long been managing Julia’s career, beginning from when she started as a child actress. Many were surprised when she did not attend the Star Magic Ball last October.

In an interview aired on Tonight with Boy Abunda on Friday, November 25, Julia said: “Mayroon lang kailangan move na gawin.” (There was just a necessary move.)

“Kung ano mayroon ako ngayon, lahat iyon ay dahil sa mga taong nakasama ko, nag-guide sa akin, lahat ng tumulong sa akin from the very start. So walang nagbago doon,” she added.

(Whatever I have now, that is all because of the people who I was with, who gudeid me, who helped me from the very start. So nothing has changed.)

Julia was also asked about her “special” relationship with her former leading man Coco Martin. The two have been linked in the past but never admitted anything between them. (READ:Julia Montes on Coco Martin, being ready for love, new leading men)

“Okay naman. Wala pa naman po Valentine’s para… wala lang,” she said.

(We’re okay. It’s not yet Valentine’s so, well.)

Julia started her career  as child actress, appearing in Going Bulilit. She later starred as Clara in Mara Clara with Kathryn Bernardo. She also starred in Walang Hanggan and Ikaw Lamang with Coco.

She is currently starring in Doble Kara with Sam Milby.
