Daniel Padilla on Kathryn Bernardo: "Hindi pwede kumausap ng ibang lalaki kasi magagalit ako."

Is Daniel Padilla being possessive of Kathryn Bernardo?

On the August 9, 2013 episode of Kris TV, Daniel Padilla imposed rules on Kathryn Bernardo now that she has returned to school. Kathryn is taking up Business Administration (major in Marketing) at the Enderun Colleges. 

Daniel said that he does not want Kathryn to talk to other boys.

"Mayroon [akong do's and don'ts para kay Kathryn]. Do's, mag-aral ka lang. Don'ts, kumausap ng lalaki. 'Yun lang," said Daniel to which Kathryn replied, "Kung hindi naman ako kakausapin, hindi ko sila kakausapin."

"Kapag gusto mong makipag-usap, bawal din," Daniel stressed. "Hindi pwede kasi magagalit ako."

When Kris asked the two if they can keep the rules for long, Kathryn replied:

"Basta trust lang talaga. Di naman hindi siya pwedeng makipag-usap sa iba, eh pwede naman. Depende naman sa tao kung paano mo iha-handle ang mga mami-meet mo, depende kung paano ka makipag-usap o ma-attach sa kanya."

Daniel said that he can stick to the rule, unlike Kathryn who sometime became careless.

"Ako kaya ko. Si Kathryn kasi 'pag masyado na siyang masaya, nadadala siya ng emosyon niya minsan na nakakalimutan na niya 'yung mga bawal."

When Kathryn tried to reason out, Daniel emphasized Kath's being careless while guest co-host Melai Cantiveros explained to Kathryn why Daniel's acting like that.

"Miss Kris, malalim talaga ang mga boys kapag sobrang in love sila. Kasi sobrang protective lang siya sa 'yo Kathryn kaya ganyan si Daniel," Melai said.

Kathryn and Daniel have yet to admit that they are officially a couple but in previous interviews, the two said that they are in the "MU" or "mutual understanding" stage. Two years after their first ever team up in  Growing Up, KathNiel will have their television return via primetime series Got to Believe which is set to premiere this August 26.

Judy Ann Santos Not Leaving ABS-CBN, New Teleserye in the Works

Teleserye Queen Judy Ann Santos will remain as a Kapamilya, Dreamscape Entertainment Adprom head Biboy Arboleda confirmed to Journal Online after reports that Juday will be transferring networks surfaced.

According to reports, Judy Ann Santos will sign a new contract with ABS-CBN anytime soon. There are also ongoing talks between ABS-CBN executives and Judy Ann's camp about the said contract renewal and the projects that she will be doing.

Direk Lauren Dyogi, ABS-CBN TV Production Entertainment head, confirmed via Twitter that the network have wonderful offers for Juday. 

"Hopefully Judai accepts the new project we offered her. Bago na naman for her. Judai is well-loved. Thanks for giving her your full support. I think she will stay, [we] will pray for that," Direk Lauren said in a series of tweet replies.

Direk Lauren also clarified the issue about Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala being cut short. He said that the creators don't want to extend the story unnecessarily. As one of the best crafted soaps of ABS-CBN, they wanted the story to be short but powerful, the reason it will only run for 13 weeks.

However, it was Judy Ann who requested to end the soap's run two months short of its planned airing, instead of being moved to a later timeslot (4th in primetime after the evening newscast) to give way for the KathNiel teleserye Got to Believe.

Judy Ann Santos teleserye Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala will air its finale episode on August 23 and Dreamscape Entertainment is trusting Juday a new teleserye after she has renewed her contract with ABS-CBN.

Meanwhile, Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla's Got to Believe is expected to premiere on August 26 right after Juan Dela Cruz. Family drama Muling Buksan Ang Puso will take Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala's timeslot and will be pitted against My Husband's Lover.

Actress Karla Estrada uncovers her son Daniel Padilla’s love life and reveals to Anthony Taberna that her son has never had a girlfriend in “Tapatan ni Tunying” this Thursday (August 1).

According to Karla, despite being continuously linked to Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel has never committed himself to anyone because he is conservative. Karla, however, believes that Daniel is mature enough to handle relationships on his own.

“The Padillas are tagged as womanizers and Daniel wants to change that perspective,” she says in the interview.

Aside from this, Karla also talks about her four failed relationships, including that with Daniel’s father, Rommel Padilla.

Meanwhile, Eva Cariño, matriarch of the Padilla showbiz clan, dishes out her worries about BB Gandanghari’s plan to undergo sex change as she fears complications might arise during the procedure.

She also admits that just like BB’s siblings, she is taking her time to accept the gender preference of her son.

“It was hard to accept the news at first. I sometimes get mad to BB but she’s really beautiful, I have to admit that,” Eva says.

Aside from BB’s coming out, Robin’s imprisonment in 1995 was also one of the hardest chapters of her life. How did Eva remain strong amidst conflicts and controversies involving her children?

Daniel Padilla, Julie Anne San Jose, Yeng Constantino and Abra Named OPM Young Ambassadors

The Organisasyon ng Pilipinong Mang-aawit (OPM) has tapped Daniel Padilla, Julie Anne San Jose, Yeng Constantino and rapper Abra (Raymond Abracosa) as their newest "junior ambassadors" in promoting local music to the youth.

Expected to assist OPM in its promoting activities, these four young artists were chosen not only with their huge fan bases but also because of their accomplishments at this stage in their respective careers.

Yeng Constantino, the oldest of the four at 24 is the very first champion of Pinoy Dream Academy and has released several successful albums and has composed hit OPM songs. Just recently, she was named as music ambassador of Singapore's Academy of Rock.

Daniel Padilla has also released two platinum records and topbilled a sold-out major concert at the Araneta Coliseum last April 30. Another young singer who's very successful in her career is Julie Anne San Jose. The Kapuso artist's debut album recently reached quadruple platinum and her fans' presence in the social media circle is totally undeniable.

Meanwhile, rapper Abra created waves with his music and lyricism. His hit music video Gayuma has already reached more than 22 million views in YouTube and his recent single Ilusyon is also taking off.

OPM President Ogie Alcasid said that the local music scene needs the help of these artist to encourage the youth and make them identify with OPM in this age that foreign music (especially Korean songs) are taking over.

"We’re trying our best to push original Filipino music forward, and we recognize the importance of reaching out to the youth. We want to build a strong connection with them. We appreciate the fact that they [Daniel, Julie Anne, Yeng and Abra] willingly gave us their endorsement. We need their help," Ogie Alcasid told Inquirer in a phone interview on Tuesday.

Daniel Padilla, Abra, Julie Anne San Jose and Yeng Constantino will be formally awarded the OPM junior ambassador title on June 7 at the Pagcor Grand Theater.
