Alessandra, now a Kapuso

Alessandra de Rossi is now officially a Kapuso after she recently signed a two-year contract with GMA 7. Her first project with her former home network: the afternoon soap opera "Sinner or Saint" with Bianca King.

Alessandra revealed in her Twitter account that this is the first time in her 13-year career in showbiz that she has a contract.

"I'm sorry. Maski aso may papeles. Meron ako nun ngayon, for the first time in my career, I HAVE A CONTRACT. At least sure ako may work lagi," she tweeted. "Naranasan ko na mawalan. mangapa. At wala akong pwedeng sisihin kasi wala akong contract kahit saan. 13 years tsong. Ngayon meron. Be happy."

In an interview with Yahoo! OMG! Philippines and other members of the press during the launch of "Sinner or Saint," Alessandra said she didn't encounter any problems with her transfer.

"Hindi sya naging problema kasi naiintindihan naman nila (ABS-CBN)," she explained.

Alessandra added that the reason for her transfer to GMA this year is also the reason why she switched networks three years ago.

"Yun din naman ang dahilan kung bakit ako lumipat sa kanila e. Kailangan ko ng work, kailangan ko ulit ng work," Alessandra said.

"Syempre dito ngayon, guaranteed na may show ka," she said.

She also revealed there was no increase in her talent fee. "Kung ano yung iniwan ko dito, yun pa rin," Alessandra said, adding that what she's after is guaranteed work within the next two years.

Alessandra joked that her role in "Sinner or Saint" is the same as the roles in her previous GMA projects. "Kung ano yung role na meron ako na third party na ayaw sa akin nung lalaki na lahat gagawin ko para magustuhan ako na nagawa ko na six years ago, ito pa rin yun," she quipped.

Not the right time

In "Sinner or Saint," Alessandra will work again with Dennis Trillo. The two were together in "Darna" in 2005 and "Super Twins" in 2007, among others.

Would she consider dating Dennis?

"Actually, pinagtitripan ko lang din sya sa taping. 'Dennis, apat na taon kong hinintay ang pagkakataong ito!' Pero syempre joke joke lang namin yun dahil friends friends din naman kami bago ako umalis nung nasa Siyete ako. Marami na ring pinagdaanan ang career naming dalawa," she said.

On a serious note, Alessandra said she is currently single. "Zero pa rin. There's something wrong with me. Sabi nga nila, pag special, matagal ang lutuan," she quipped.

But the award-winning actress said she knows this may not be the right time for love, adding that family is her number one priority.

"Alam na natin at alam naman ng Diyos, sa pag-ibig lang naman ako nababaliw, no. Sabi nga ni God, 'wag kang magbaliw-baliwan, may binabayaran kang bahay, may six years ka pa, no! Saka ka na magboyfriend pag pwede ka na mag baliw-baliwan, saka mo ipatalon yung boyfriend sa bangin'," Alessandra quipped.

She added, "Sabi nga nila, ang isang bagay darating lang sayo pag pinagdarasal mo. E naman, health lang ng pamilya ko at ang pinagdarasal ko sa safety nila. Yung sarili ko di ko pinagdarasal, yung sarili kong health di ko pinagdarasal. So yun lang talaga binibigay sa akin ni God, at happy naman ako," she said.
