Kim Chiu returns to MEG

After posing as cover girl with Enchong Dee on MEG last February 2009, Kim Chiu comes back on MEG's cover for its August 2009 issue.

In the latest issue, Kim dishes out about her dream roles, her unexpected success in showbiz, her showbiz idol and more.

Kim reveals she'd like to do roles ala Angelina Jolie, or portray as a heroine.

It's interesting to note that Kim looks up to Miss Judy Ann Santos whom she has yet to work with. This is already the second time she mentioned Judy Ann as her idol in showbiz.

I wonder why she never considered Claudine Barretto whom she worked with in "Maligno" as her showbiz idol.

Here's a portion of Kim's interview with MEG Magazine as published on its August 2009 issue:

Did you expect to get this big when you won PBB?
Hindi, pero pinangarap ko naman talaga makuha tong malalaking projects kasi lahat naman siguro ng mga artista pangarap maging successful sa industry na to. Kasama naman yun sa mga prayers ko, tapos ayun nagkatotoo naman siya.

So what do you think your edge is?
Ako siguro gusto ko lang talaga, pangarap ko lang talaga makita sa TV [at] yun pa rin nakatatak sa isip ko kaya kailangan ko talagang galingan. Kailangan ko talagang gandahan yung mga performances ko para next time nasa TV ako ulit, parang ganun. Yun talaga iniisip ko. Ganun lang kasimple kaya mahal na mahal ko yung trabaho ko, kaya masayang masaya ako kapag umaarte ako, kapag sumasayaw ako. Masaya talaga ako kapag napapasaya ko yung ibang tao.

You’ve done several roles over the years, from being a comedic actress to your mature role in Tayong Dalawa, are there any other roles you want to do?
Marami. Gusto ko may mga kambal ako pero ako pa rin gagawa, pero iba-iba ugali. Gusto ko may powers-powers tsaka yung may action. Yung may hawak kang baril. Gusto ko yung mga ganun! Something na hindi ini-expect ng mga tao. Gusto ko parang si Angelina Jolie.

But is there anybody in the local industry you look up to?
Si Judy Ann [Santos], si Judy Ann talaga. Kasi parang ang successful niya kasi kahit ang tagal niya ng artista mahal pa rin siya ng mga tao.
