After starring on her fist lead role on the kapamilya primetime soap 'Eva Fonda', Cristine became a household name not only in Metro Manila, but in a nationwide scale due to the show's high ratings in the provinces amidts the luster reception it got on the nation's capital.
The Kapamilya network, immediately banked on the actress beauty and newfound popularity, casting Cristine on its attempt to produce again an adult gaga show 'Banana Split'. She also guested on primetime's ratings juggernaut 'May Bukas Pa' and was paired with Jake Cuenca on the pilot of 'Bud Brothers', both of which registered big numbers for ABS-CBN.
But all of a sudden, Cristine got entrangled on an issue of netowrk transfer as her manager on VIVA admitted on PEP that they are negotiating with GMA-7, as the former mother studio of Cristine offered her two coveted roles, both of which are villainess.
First was to be the new Valentina on the second TV remake of the Kapuso network on
'Darna', this time with Marian Rivera. Cristine turned down the offer because she doesn't feel working with Marian. If one could recall, Katrina and Marian had a feud while working together on 'Marimar', and Katrina is a close friend of Cristine.
Another offer was made. This time, the role of 'Fedra' on another remake by GMA-7, 'Rosalinda'. Cristine, who already played lead role on ABS-CBN, was offered a villaon role to a newcomer and fresh face, neophyte Carla Abellana who was chosen to play the title role.
In an interview with PEP, Cristine expressed her interest on the villain role. According to her, it doesn't matter if the role is just a support as contrary to her leading lady status because she likes the material.
It all seems that the sexy actress is already ready to jump ship. But according to new developments, the actress was halted by the Kapamilya network due to her existing contract with "Banana Split'. The network threatens to 'freeze' Cristine if she will not honor her contract with the said gag show.
If the speculation is true, Cristine might still remain a kapamilya?
