Kim Chiu is sad she and Gerald Anderson are doing separate projects
While the Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson tandem has been one of the most successful love teams to date, the two stars are now doing separate projects. Kim is currently shooting a movie while Gerald is busy training for his new soap, Agimat, Ang Mga Alamat ni Ramon Revilla. Kim revealed that she feels sad about not being with perennial partner Gerald. “Nakakapanibago ng feeling, ‘pag pumupunta ako sa shoot, wala akong sobrang ka-close. Siyempre nakakalungkot kasi sa lahat ng mga projects namin kami yung magkasama, kami yung magka-love team, kami yung sinusuportahan ng mga tao. Nalulungkot ako pero ganun naman talaga, suportahan natin si Gerald. Masaya naman ako para sa kanya kasi ito talaga yung gusto niya na maging action star. Ako pa rin yung number one fan niya,” Kim said.
In another interview, Gerald said that if he could have it his way, he would still choose Kim to be his leading lady for Agimat. When Kim was told about this, she said, “Wow, thank you. Haba ng hair ko, wala ko masabi. Pero sana nga magkasama pa rin kami, kung hindi man sa Agimat sana sa ibang proyekto.”
About the rumors that Gerald will be paired with Sarah Geronimo in an upcoming project, Kim said that she is not yet aware about it, but if it is true, she will be happy for them. “Wala pa naman, eh. Kung meron man, susuportahan ko sila.”
While all of these changes are going on, the actress remains grateful for her and Gerald’s fans’ unending support. “Siyempre nagpapasalamat kami kasi pinagtatanggol nila yung love team namin. Sobra nilang inaaway lahat kung sino yung humaharang sa Kimerald, sobrang pinaglalaban nila kami at bihira lang yung may ganyang fans na pinaglalaban nila yung idolo nila and kung may project man sila Sarah at Gerald supportahan na lang natin sila.”
Meanwhile, Kim still maintains that she and Gerald are just enjoying each other’s friendship and that there is no romantic commitment. “Masaya kami kung ano man kami ngayon. Masaya kami sa isa’t-isa. Hindi natin alam, huwag natin minamadali ang mga bagay-bagay. Basta masaya kami. ‘Pag siya na talaga, siya na talaga for life. Tsaka hindi rin naman ako minamadali ni Gerald, kilig-kiligan lang.”

John Lloyd Cruz advises Angel Locsin not to expect too much from him
Ibinahagi ni John Lloyd Cruz kamakailan na malapit na nilang matapos ang shooting ng pelikulang A Mother’s Story: In My Life kung saan niya kasama sina Governor Vilma Santos at Luis Manzano. Sa telebisyon naman, umaasa siya na sisimulan na nila ni Angel Locsin ang kanilang gagawing teleserye bago matapos ang 2009. Halatang excited siya sa project nila ni Angel na magiging comeback soap opera niya after I Love Betty La Fea.
“I’m just waiting for Angel. I’m hoping na after nitong soap niya (Only You) at pagka puwede na kong magsimula for the soap opera at maging maayos naman ang pag-uusap, sana wala nang problema,” pananabik ng aktor. “Sana matuloy na because medyo matagal na rin (pinag-uusapan ang proyekto) at ako naghihintay lang.” Kuwento pa ng binata, noong bagong lipat pa lang si Angel sa ABS-CBN ay napag-uusapan na ang tambalan nila. “I’m really hoping na mangyari na siya this year,” aniya.
Samantala, natawa naman si Lloydy nang hingan siya ng reaksyon sa komento ni Angel na masyado siyang nagagalingan kay Lloydy. Nasambit pa nga ni Angel na kailangan muna niyang mag-workshop bago sila magsimula ni Lloydy na gumawa ng eksena para makasabay ito. “Wag ka masyadong mag-expect,” natatawang mensahe ni John Lloyd para kay Angel.
Gayunpaman, excited na ang aktor na maging leading lady si Angel. “I’ve been blessed [dahil] ang mga nakakatrabaho ko, especially ‘yung mga leading ladies, kumbaga they only have nice words for people. Si Angel isa siya roon, honestly. Angel, please huwag kang masyadong mag-expect baka hindi ko ma-meet ang mga expectations mo.”
Bukod sa pagkakaroon ng magandang working relationship kay Angel, mas hinahangad ng aktor na mabuo ang magandang pagkakaibigan nilang dalawa. Aniya, nais niyang maging makabuluhan ang kanilang pagtatrabaho at hindi malilimutan. “’Pag nagkatrabaho tayo, I’ll be looking forward to sharing of knowledge [and] sharing ng kung ano ang maibabato mo sa akin at ‘yung maitutulong ko lang sa ‘yo,” mensahe ni Lloydy kay Angel. “I just want to share experiences with you in the most memorable way possible. Mag-enjoy lang tayo. More than the work that we have to do, mas importante ‘yung mga moments natin off-cam. ‘Yun ang mga moments na hindi natin makakalimutan, ‘yung mga moment na ise-share natin sa mga anak natin.”
Kinumpirma rin niya na magkakaroon sila ng movie reunion ni Bea Alonzo tentatively early next year. Puring-puri naman niya si Bea sa pagbabago ng aktress sa pisikal at personalidad na aspeto. “Now, mas willing siya to take on more new roles, more mature, more sensitive, and more daring hindi lang in terms of sensuality. Mas malawak talaga. I’m very happy na ganun ang nakikita ko sa kanya. Kasi ang nakikita mo papunta siya sa maturity. Papunta siya sa growth na gusto niyang maabot growth na gusto niyang puntahan.

Does KC Concepcion feel pressured about making ‘Lovers in Paris’ a big hit?
After joining her mother Sharon Cuneta in the latter’s Mega Concert tour in the US, KC Concepcion is back to work on Lovers in Paris, her first teleserye which is scheduled to air in August on ABS-CBN. KC told ABS-CBN.com that taping for Lovers in Paris has been a great learning experience for her. “Parang against all odds ang situation naming lahat. This is my first teleserye pero lahat ng mga kasama ko, both actors and the production team, ang dami na nilang experiences sa paggawa teleserye. Sobrang ko silang tinitingala. I believe I’m learning from the best. Lahat ng Kapamilya stars na gumagawa ng teleserye e magagaling. They really show it. Humahanga ako sa kanila.”
Lovers in Paris is an adaptation of the popular Koreanovela of the same name. ABS-CBN has produced several top-rating teleserye adaptations like Kim Chiu’s My Girl, Bea Alonzo’s I Love Betty La Fea, and Angel Locsin’s Only You. For her part, KC admitted that she feels pressured to continue that winning streak. “We’re hoping for the best. Syempre ‘yung Only You ang lakas sa ratings. ‘Yung Betty La Fea successful din. Napag-uusapan na rin ‘yung bagong shows na makakatapat namin sa kabilang network. We’re all doing the best we can.”
However, KC clarified with ABS-CBN.com that she is not competing to surpass the success that Kim, Bea, and Angel have achieved with their respective teleseryes. “Kaming mga artista, we’re not here to compete naman with each other. Ang networks lang talaga ang nagko-compete. As artists we only do our best. We love the character na ginagampanan namin.”
The daughter of the Megastar promised the legions of ABS-CBN Primetime Bida followers that they will see a very different KC when Lovers in Paris debuts on TV. “Mahirap din ‘yung character ko kasi sobrang iba siya sa kung ano ‘yung nakikita sa akin ng mga tao. Madalas akong makita na nakabihis nang maganda, sa mga events at pictorials. Pero through my character in Lovers in Paris makikita niyo how I will try to reach out to a much broader audience. Iba ‘yung histura ko, galaw, mga pagdadaanan, lahat.”
The 24-year-old beauty added that she chose to make her own version of the character Vivian compared to that of the original Koreanovela. “Nung una pinapanood ko ‘yung Lovers in Paris pero naisip ko what if hindi ko na lang panoorin and gumawa ako ng sarili kong Vivian. Makikita niyo talaga na ibang-iba ako. Maingay, loka loka, makulit. Character talaga siya. Mestiza siyang Pilipina pero naging simple lang ang buhay. Hindi naging artista o beauty queen kaya maraming makaka-relate.”

Concepcion said this is the first time that she met newbie actress Cortez so they still need to spend some "bonding" time together.
