Julia, ayaw makumpara kay Claudine

Malapit nang mapanood sa ABS-CBN ang teleseryeng Mira Bella na pinagbibidahan ni Julia Barretto. Marami ang nagsasabing kamukha si Julia ng tiyahin niyang si Claudine Barretto at nagbida rin ang huli sa mga teleserye noon kaya napagkukumpara ang dalawa. “Normal naman siguro siya pero on my side naman, I won’t let it affect me because my tita has been in the industry for so many years. You can’t compare somebody who’s been in the industry for many years to somebody who has just entered. So hindi talaga mako-compare ‘yon,” pahayag ni Julia.

Kinakabahan na raw ngayon pa lang ang dalaga sa pagsisimula ng kanyang sariling soap opera sa susunod na buwan. “Taping so far has been really fun. Madami na pong nakunan. It’s showing next month na, so sana abangan n’yo. I am really excited, I am nervous, I am feeling everything all at once. Si­guro mostly excited ako kasi ang tagal kong hinintay,” dagdag ni Julia.

Marami na raw challenges ang hinarap ng aktres ngayong halos araw-araw siyang nagta-trabaho. “Every taping day is a learning experience so ayaw ko rin ma-pressure. I don’t want to pressure myself na to be as in good na ilang years na ako sa industriya. I am allowing myself to improve, I’m giving myself time it’s my first teleserye. Pinaka-challenging so far siguro just being Mira Bella kasi I’m playing two characters here. Kailangan mabigyan ko sila ng difference, that itself is very challenging,” pagtatapos ni Julia.

Isabel hubby na ang tawag kay John

Kahapon ay nagdiwang ng kanyang 30th birthday si John Prats. Ipinahayag ng kasintahan ng aktor na si Isabel Oli ang kanyang mensahe sa Instagram. “Blessed Birthday to the most handsome, down to earth, super talented (Dancefloor Dynamite/Host/Actor), sweetest person I know, my Hubb @iamjohnprats (love). I’m really blessed to have you in my life, no­thing could be more special than the day when you came into this world,” post ni Isabel. “Thank you for loving me, for making me laugh, for being silly, for taking care of me, for being so patient with me, for being the best boyfriend and bestfriend to me. I will always be here for you no matter what. May God’s awesome blessings be upon you this day and for the future years ahead. Stay awesome Hubbytaotao! I love you Hubbaaah Happy Birthday and Happy Va­lentines Mars Love, Your #1 Fan… Wifeytotit (love).”

May mga bulung-bulungan na malapit na rin daw magpakasal sina John at Isabel. Ayon sa aktor ay si Isabel na raw ang nakikita niyang makakasama habangbuhay. “Ako finally masasabi ko na siya, nahanap ko na ‘yung taong alam kong susuportahan ako, na nandiyan sa likod, na kaya niyang isakripis­yo ang career niya at personal niyang interest para alagaan ako at suportahan,” makahulugang paha­yag ni John. -Reports from JAMES C.
