I draw inspiration from that,” she said.Geronimo, considered the foremost pop performer in local showbiz, then mentioned the “grace” of having a job that can sustain her, noting that many have lost their livelihood in recent months.“Aminin po natin na sa pandemic na meron tayo, na nai-experience ng buong mundo, marami pong nawawalan ng trabaho. Mas lalo ko pa pong pinapahalagahan ‘yung opportunities na binibigay po sa akin. Kasi hindi po lahat ay nabibigyan niyan,” she said.Geronimo, who turned 32 on July 25, was also asked about her married life, which she described as, “Masarap, masaya.”Admittedly, Geronimo said she has had to make considerable “adjustments,” given that she now shares a home with Guidicelli and lives apart from her own family. Geronimo laughed when asked what her priorities are now, aside from her health.“Siyempre po, may asawa na po tayo. Priority din natin ang asawa natin!” she answered.In a fast talk portion, Geronimo was then quizzed what song of hers she would choose to describe her married life. Her response: “Forever’s Not Enough.”“Siyempre po pag nagmahal tayo, parang hindi sapat ang forever,” she said.
