Star Cinema's Bride For Rent made history as the highest-grossing January release in the Philippines. The movie, which stars Kim Chiu and Xian Lim is the film outfit's opening salvo for 2014.

Bride For Rent Makes History as the Highest Grossing January Film in the Philippines

According to Star Cinema's AdProm Director Roxy Liquigan, Bride For Rent has already grossed P325 million at the box office as of February 7, that is 24 days after it first opened in cinemas nationwide.

Bride For Rent is the 6th Pinoy movie to surpass the P300 million  mark following The Unkabogable Praybeyt Benjamin, Sisterakas, It Takes A Man and A Woman, My Little Bossings, and Girl Boy Bakla Tomboy.

Directed by Mae Czarina Cruz and written by Carmi Raymundo, the movie also stars Pilita Corrales, Tirso Cruz III, Dennis Padilla, Matt Evans, Martin del Rosario, and Empoy Marquez.

Meanwhile, with the successes of their first two movies, Star Cinema is trusting another big screen project to Kim and Xian this year. They may be separated on television for now (as Kim is pairing with Coco for the first time in the teleserye Ikaw Lamang) but fans will get to see them in movies.

The still untitled movie will start filming this year (WATCH THE BANDILA REPORT HERE).

Kim Chiu Says Teleserye with Xian Lim Still A Go

Posted on February 9, 2014 | 7:06 PM

Primetime Princess Kim Chiu confirmed that she will reunite with love team Xian Lim in another teleserye. In an interview with entertainment website Pep.ph, Kim revealed the next plans of the network for the KimXi tandem.

Kim Chiu and Xian Lim teleserye still a go

"Hindi naman siya bubuwagin (KimXi)... isang project lang [kami magkahiwalay ni Xian] and then after that, we're gonna have teleserye together at may movie kami sa third quarter ni Xian," Kim said. "Sana suportahan ulit iyon ng mga tao parang Bride For Rent."


Many fans of Kim and Xian reacted negatively on the decision of the management to pair the actress with another actor, this time with Coco Martin, for the upcoming period drama Ikaw Lamang. According to Kim, they can't do anything about it because it's management's decision.

"Yun din ang hindi ko maintindihan pero sumusunod lang kami bilang workers ng ABS-CBN. Sila ang nagdesisyon nun, and nalungkot din naman kami in a way. Pero siyempre ito yung binigay sa amin and hindi naman kami makakapili kung ano talaga," Kim said regarding the decision to put her and Xian in different projects for the meantime.

Kim, however, said that some KimXi fans were still happy for her new project with Coco and have already learned to accept the decision of ABS-CBN. She just advised KimXi fans to wait for their next project together, a movie which will be shown third quarter of 2014.

"Masaya kami na yung ibang KimXi, masaya sila. Parang natanggap na rin nila. Nandiyan lang sila kahit hiwalay yung project namin and masaya kami na naririnig namin yun. Antayin na lang nila yung movie namin ni Xian."

Xian Lim Suffers Depression After 'Banana Nite' Incident; "Hindi kumakain, hindi makausap."

Posted on February 7, 2014 | 10:23 AM

Actor Xian Lim was in a state of depression after he drew flak from netizens over his Banana Nite guesting on Chinese New Year where he poked fun of Kim Chiu kalokalike Charmae Viking (click here for the story and video).

Xian Lim

According to Xian's love team Kim Chiu, the actor has been deeply saddened by the incident last January 31. "Sobra siyang malungkot, hindi mo siya makausap. As in hindi siya kumakain, hindi siya nagpapagupit ng hair, ayaw niya."

"Sobra siyang na-down kasi ang daming bashers sa Instagram," Kim Chiu told ABS-CBN News on Thursday. "Actually hindi ko alam paano siya i-chi-cheer up. [Ang ginagawa ko] pinapatawa ko siya, kumakain kami sa labas. Pero malungkot pa rin talaga siya."

"Sabi ko, 'Baliktarin mo sila. Mag-post ka ng mga masasaya, ganyan.' Pero ayaw niya, sobrang malungkot siya," Kim added.

Kim Chiu came into the defense of Xian, saying that she would have reacted the same way if she's in the same situation.

"Hindi mo alam sa kalagitnaan ng kanta mo may sisingit sa likod. Siyempre kahit ako magugulat ako na parang, 'Anong nangyari?' kasi kinakabahan ako," she said.

According to Banana Nite director Frasco Mortiz, they invited Kim Chiu kalokalike Charmae Viking to surprise Xian. However, the actor was caught off guard and resorted to poking fun on the impersonator, calling her Bea Binene.

Kim Chiu backed Xian Lim, who has already apologized for the incident via a series of posts on Twitter, saying it was not his intention to make fun of the impersonator.

"Of course, hindi ko naman siya kakaibiganin kung bastos siyang tao," Kim said.

Xian Lim Behavior in Banana Nite Earns Flak from Netizens

Posted on January 31, 2014 | 12:24 PM

Actor Xian Lim became a hot topic during the Chinese New Year celebration not because he's part Chinese but because of his alleged rude and ungentlemanly behavior while guesting in the live episode of Banana Nite on January 30.

Xian Lim

According to reports, Xian Lim poked fun at Kim Chiu kalaokalike Charmae Viking after the actor performed a song in the said live show to welcome the Chinese New Year. [WATCH THE VIDEO HERE]

"Maraming, maraming salamat! Sino ‘to?" Xian asked, puzzled with the appearance of the Kim Chiu kalokalike on stage. He then greeted everyone a Happy Chinese New Year. He addressed Viking, "Ang taas ng energy. Kamusta naman?" after the impersonator greeted the crowd.

When the girl responded "Okay naman," Xian asked "Anong ginagawa ni Bea Binene dito?" before turning to the crowd once more and greeting them again a happy new year.

Xian was about to leave when Jayson Gainza went up the stage to have a little chat with him and the Kim Chiu kalokalike.

Xian told Jayson, "Nag-guest siya from GMA," then laugh. 

Jayson then asked Xian to describe his preparations for the Chinese New Year and he responded, "Paano maghahanda nandito pa tayo? Hindi ko pa alam pagkauwi ko mamaya. Malamang may handaan dun."

Jayson also asked Viking the same question but Xian interrupted, "Tanungin natin kung anong teleserye niya sa GMA. Si Bea Binene."

Xian's behavior earned the netizens' ire telling him that they were turned off with how he acted on the show. The actor, however, apologized after the incident in a series of Twitter posts.

"I deeply apologize if I caused negative feelings while singing onstage during the Chinese New Years Eve countdown. It was not my intention, and I take full responsibility for my actions. HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR EVERYONE! :-)"

Xian was also involved in another issue accusing him of rude behavior while being interviewed in the radio show of Jobert Sucaldito last December (read about it here).

Kim Chiu and Coco Martin Tandem in New ABS-CBN Teleserye

Posted on January 19, 2014 | 6:15 PM

Primetime royalties Coco Martin and Kim Chiu are said to be working together in an upcoming ABS-CBN teleserye. Reports said that Kim will be Coco's leading lady in his comeback teleserye, a period drama with a working title Ikaw Lamang.

Kim Chiu and Coco Martin Tandem in New ABS-CBN Teleserye

"Si Kim Chiu pala ang bagong leading lady ni Coco Martin sa bago niyang teleserye sa ABS-CBN at take note, hindi na kasama ang ka-loveteam ng aktres na si Xian Lim sa proyektong ito," entertainment columnist Reggee Bonoan wrote in his article in Bandera.

According to the published article, Coco Martin and Kim Chiu will be joined by Jake Cuenca and Julia Montes in the upcoming project. Childstar Xyriel Manabat is also in the cast.

In one of his interviews, Coco revealed that he will be working on his teleserye soon after he finished shooting for the movie Padre de Familia which also stars Montes and superstar Nora Aunor. The actor also said that this new project will be an action-drama.

"Baka mag-start na ako itong end of January. Magbabalik ako. Napakagandang ano sa akin, kasi after Juan dela Cruz, superhero siya, ngayon gumawa ako ng ganitong klaseng pelikula. Tapos ang gagawin kong next soap ay heavy drama na may action, kumbaga ready ako ngayon humarap sa soap operang gagawin ko," he said.

If indeed this is true, then ABS-CBN might be trying new pairing just like what they did with Kimerald (Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson). However, is ABS-CBN ready to let go of the popularity of the KimXi tandem this early?

"Ay bakit naman may ganoon? Hindi ko naman kaya 'yung consequence," Kim Chiu said in an interview on Kris RealiTV aired Wednesday morning. "Hindi naman bagay sa akin.
