WASHINGTON, United States — Boeing and its striking Seattle-area workers have reached a tentative deal to end a more than month-long stoppage, the union said Saturday.
Regine Velasquez is open to returning to acting as long as the material is “right” for her, with preference to comedy and light drama genres.
Velasquez said she’s more open to an acting comeback during a press conference for her upcoming “Reset” concert in Makati when asked if there’s a chance she will act again.

Kasi parang ang tagal na rin. Parang five or six years na rin akong hindi umaarte. Although maarte lang talaga ako,” she said in jest.

(I’m more open now. For me, if there is an offer, if the role is right, if the role is good, I will surely think about it. Because it’s been so long. I haven’t been acting for five or six years. Although I’m dramatic. But as far as acting is concerned, again, if there is a right role, yes, I will consider it.)
