Elisse Joson has been leaning into kontrabida roles lately. So it’s refreshing to see her take a break from all the intense acting and just have fun, like what we witnessed in this &quot;Drink It&quot; Challenge on Kapamilya Chat. Here, she would draw a question, and would have to choose one of the mystery drinks for every time she&#x27;d refuse to answer.When, in the very first round, she was asked about her favorite co-star, she picked Piolo Pascual for actors because, well, he is the country&#x27;s biggest heartthrob and is a true gentleman. As for female co-stars, she chose her &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/paraiso2023/articles-news/lines-from-pira-pirasong-paraiso-that-are-impossible-to-forget-21490" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pira-Pirasong Paraiso</a>&quot; sisters Loisa Andalio, Charlie Dizon, and Alexa Ilacad, saying that they had fun on the set even though their scenes were intense once the cameras started rolling.When asked about her pet peeve at work, Elisse mentioned that she dislikes it when people interfere with how others perform their scenes. She hasn’t personally experienced this yet, and of course, collaboration is sometimes necessary, such as when the director gives specific instructions “pero may certain point na too much siguro &#x27;pag iba ang magsasabi.” However, she welcomes helpful tips and insights from co-actors as long as they come from a good place.Elisse had to take a mystery drink when she got a question asking her to choose between showbiz and entrepreneurship. She loves both, so there was no way she could choose! Luckily, the mystery drink she ended up with wasn’t too bad. She also took another sip when asked if there was one thing she could reveal about her private life.When asked what message she would give to her younger self, she came up with a heartfelt reminder, “It’s okay if you take longer to find out who you are and your purpose in life. You just have to keep going and gaining experience from all around you because you will find it as you go along.&quot;This is probably rooted in her being a Capricorn, someone who loves to explore different paths. So when she picked a question about what career she would have pursued if she weren’t in showbiz, Elisse admitted she probably would have tried a lot of things. She mentioned marketing, becoming a makeup artist or stylist, or running her own business.And finally, when asked about the biggest lesson she’s learned about love, she thought that love comes in different forms, &quot;&#x27;yung walang iisang recipe to have love and give love.&quot; For her, love is difficult to define because it’s so vast and ever-changing.Catch Elisse as Atty. Jessica in &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/savinggrace" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Saving Grace: The Untold Story</a>,&quot; featuring additional scenes not included in the original airing, starting March 3 on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
