Kapuso Stars

HINDI na talaga itinago ng magandang young sexy actress na si Lovi Poe ang labis na paghanga sa isa sa mga iniidolo niyang artista na si Cherie Gil.

Na-starstruck ang byuti ni Lovi nang makasama niya si Cherie sa first day taping niya para sa latest soap ni Lovi sa GMA7 na Legacy.

Sa isang panayam kay Lovi, talaga raw kinabahan siya nang husto nang kunan ang eksena nila ni Cherie. Halos nangatog daw ang kanyang tuhod sa galing ng “pagbato” ng mga linya ni Cherie.

Mother ni Lovi si Cherie sa naturang soap kung kaya mas marami pang eksena na tiyak na magkasama silang dalawa. Hindi kaya maging uncomfortable si Lovi kapag laging kasama ang kanyang idol?

Say ni Lovi, noong una raw na nagsama sila ni Cherie talagang super-kaba siya, pero nang makunan na ang first scene nilang magkasama, naging very accommodating na raw si Cherie na naging daan para mapalagay ang loob niya sa hinahangaang aktres.

The topic usually asked of Geoff Eigenmann for the “Magic Palayok” presscon was: when are you and Carla Abellana planning to wed? Doesn’t he get fed up hearing the particular question over and over again? “Wala, e,” he shrugs. “Before, ang laging tinatanong was kung on na ba kami, so I guess logical lang that the next question after we admitted na officially on na nga kami is: kailan kayo pakakasal? Ganun din naman sa iba pang artista who admitted they’re going steady, di ba? And I guess hangga’t hindi kami kinakasal, itatanong at itatanong pa rin 'yun at paulit-ulit din naming isasagot na we’re not yet ready as we’re still enjoying our careers.”

In GMA 7 new soap “Magic Palayok,” he plays Jude, a rich guy who is going to be long lost dad of Angeli Sanoy, the girl who owns the magic palayok which can cook a variety of delightful dishes. Her mother, Mikee Cojuangco in a special guest role, dies and so Angeli is forced to search for her father. Perhaps the biggest issue is there are three other guys who will be also believed to be her possible dad: Jay-R, Gino de la Pena and Frank Garcia. “Our last show ni Carla was a heavy drama, ‘Basahang Ginto’. This one is much lighter at may fantasy elements for the whole family. I’m glad to be reunited here with Direk Joel Lamangan kasi para kang nagwo-workshop with him. Hangga’t di niya nagugustuhan ang isang eksena mo, pauulit niya sa’yo until you perfect it. Dito, mala-Walt Disney ang treatment niya that even the villains, played by my Tita Cherie Gil and Chynna Ortaleza, very funny ang dating.”

“Magic Palayok” will replace “Bantatay” that ends today with an explosive episode in which a major character will say goodbye. “Bantatay” is truly a constant toprater and even it’s newest competitor, Kris Aquino’s game show, find it hard to beat it. “Kaya nga may pressure sa’min,” says Geoff. “Kailangan ma-maintain ng ‘Magic Palayok’ ang high ratings set by ‘Bantatay’.”
