In an interview with Coleen at the press conference of
Ikaw Lang Ang Iibigin's final weekon Thursday, January 18, she shared that she has always been “very meticulous.”
“When I got engaged, I thought I’d be very meticulous, very picky. I want everything to go my way
kasi (because) it’s my personality, eh. I’m such a perfectionist and I thought I was gonna bring that to my wedding planning,” she shared. (READ: Coleen Garcia and Billy Crawford are engaged)
But Coleen realized that it’s all about finding the right people. According to her, she eventually let go and decided that she wanted to be surprised on the day of the wedding.
“I realized
na
ang dami nilang (they have so many)
ideas.
Siyempre mas magaling sila dito kesa sakin (Of course, they are better than me when it comes to this). I thought that when I walked down the aisle I’d see everything I want but now, I just want to be surprised,” she said.
“I want to see something I’m not expecting. Something
na mapapa-wow
ako, mapapaiyak ako (Something that will make me wow make me cry). Kasi (Because)
if it’s something
na
I want, I feel like if may
konting off, wala na (something is off, that's it)… I want it to be something beautiful that my team, who I really trust, who I chose myself, will produce themselves. Kasi siyempre (Because of course), we don’t want to clip their wings also.”
Coleen shared that after she got engaged, she received several offers from designers, each eager to dress her on her special day. She shared that she also did a lot of research on her own, searching for top wedding designers online. But ultimately, she chose her wedding gown not based on the label but because it matched her personality perfectly.
“I searched for different portfolios. I searched for different photos then
pinili ko ‘yung pinaka ako, ‘yung pinaka kami (I chose the one that's most me, that's most us). So even for the dress, so many names popped up, but no, I’m gonna choose the style that suits me.”
On the Ikaw Lang Ang Iibigin finale
After 8 months on air,
Ikaw Lang Ang Iibiigin
will air its final episode on Friday, January 26. As much as she will be missing her co-stars Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, and Jake Cuenca, Coleen shared that it was also difficult to say goodbye to her character, Isabel.
“I feel like
lahat ng
angst ko, lahat ng negative emotions na ‘di ko malabas dun ko [kay Isabel] nilalabas, so it became an outlet for me. It became kind of a venue where I could just really try to express myself, without holding back without feeling na, ‘Ay, it’s too much.’”
(I feel like all the angst inside of me, the negative emotions that I could not express, I express by being [Isabel], so it became an outlet for me. It became kind of a venue where i could just really try to express myself, without holding back, without feeling, 'Ay, it's too much.'"

If she's given the chance, Coleen also wants to take on more villain roles, whether it be in a movie or in another series. Even though kontrabidas get a lot of heat online, Coleen still wants to take on the challenge.
“I’ve gone through so much hate already, so might as well,” she said, laughing.
Sin Island
Earlier this month, Coleen wrapped up filming for her new movie
Sin Island
with Xian Lim and Nathalie Hart. While the release date has yet to be announced, the actress revealed that it’s going to be “much sooner than you think.”
“I haven’t been this proud about a film in the longest time. I’m actually very very excited for this,
kaya lang
‘di pa kami puwede
mag
-reveal ng details.” (But I can't reveal details yet.)
Looking at the movie title alone, one can assume that Coleen will be playing yet another daring character on
Sin Island
. Without revealing anything more, she teased that viewers will get to see a “different” side of her, Xian, and Nathalie.
“All of us gave something new, something different in the film. [With] regard to showing skin, regard to being daring, regard to emotion, we all gave something different to this film.” – Rappler.com
