Bea Alonzo Reveals Reason for Break Up with Gerald Anderson on YES! Magazine July 2013

Actress Bea Alonzo admitted that she and Gerald Anderson had a short-lived romance which was met with criticisms from fans and disapproval from Gerald's mother.

According to Bea, Gerald had just broken up with Kim Chiu when the actor expressed his intentions to court her way back in 2010. That time the Kimerald love team still has Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo. 

"'Yong nanligaw siya, sabi ko, 'Let's not talk for three months. Make sure, okay?' Kasi kaka-break niya lang talaga literally, kaka-break niya lang with Kim. Tapos sabi ko, 'After three months, titingnan ko, ha, kung gusto mo pa rin ako. Kasi ayokong maging rebound,'" Bea related on the July 2013 issue of YES! Magazine.

Bea Alonzo recalled that after three months, Gerald texted her and that started the courtship stage which was full of sweet gestures from Gerald to the point of setting up a catering service on her house just to appease her.

Bea said that their whirlwind romance has been a roller-coaster ride. She's happy at one point and depressed in another. Among the reasons for her "depression" then were the criticisms from 'Kimerald' fans wherein she recalled receiving death threats and the apparent disapproval of Gerald's mom of their relationship.

Asked what she recalls to be the reason of Gerald's mom for being against their relationship, Bea told YES!, "Sabi niya, parang ginagamit ko daw. Sabi ko, 'Teka lang, ha. Narating ko naman 'yong narating ko, dati na.' Actually nasisira nga dahil jinowa ko siya."

"So, I mean, nanay siya. Tapos ang feeling ko it wasn't fair, kasi never ko pa siyang nakilala. 'Di ba, parang ang sakit no'n? Kahit na nasisira 'yung pangalan ko, okay lang, basta 'yung pangalan niya, hindi masira, 'yong gano'n. Sobrang unfair. Kaya sabi ko, hindi ko na kaya," she said.

It was in November 2010, before they both went to London for an ABS-CBN concert tour, when Bea and Gerald decided to part ways as a couple. "Kasi hindi pa pwede talaga. You and me against the world ang drama. Hindi ko kaya. Hindi ko kaya talaga," Bea said admitting that she became angry to Gerald that time when he could not even defend their relationship to his family. 

Currently, both Bea and Gerald are happy with their relationships to Zanjoe Marudo and Maja Salvador, respectively. Bea said that her summer romance with Gerald might have taught the actor some lesson.

"Baka noong time na 'yon hindi niya pa yata kayang panindigan. At least ngayon, napapanindigan niya na. Baka transition ako. Baka ako 'yong kinailangan niyang maranasan bago siya manindigan," she said.

'Bromance' Gross Now P50-M; Highest-Grossing Movie of Skylight Films

Bromance: My Brother's Romance starring Zanjoe Marudo has grossed P50 million pesos entering into its second weekend according to Star Cinema. The movie, which also stars Cristine Reyes opened in theaters on May 15.

Directed by Wenn V. Deramas and produced by Skylight Films, the movie zoomed to the top of the box office in its first week and continues to make millions with each passing day. This marks the movie by far as the highest grossing film of Skylight Films, beating Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang.

Bromance's box office success was another proof of Direk Wenn Deramas' magic touch. However, Zanjoe Marudo's portrayal as the completely opposite twins Brando and Brandy also earned the praise.

“The casting is excellent. Zanjoe Marudo is a revelation, as he essayed both his roles with great versatility. Bromance: My Brother’s Romance is a good vehicle for him to display his range. This is his best movie—his performance is commendable and effortless—and it’s the perfect launching movie for him,” said a review by the Cinema Evaluation Board.

Bromance: My Brother’s Romance also boasts of a hilarious yet no less stellar supporting cast composed of Cristine Reyes (who plays Zanjoe’s love interest Erika) Arlene Muhlach, Joy Viado, Manuel Chua, Boom Labrusca, Joey Paras, Lassy, Nikki Valdez, Maricar De Mesa, Abbie Bautista, Carlo Romero and Jeff Luna.

ABS-CBN Annaliza Remake Premieres May 27 on Primetime Bida

ABS-CBN premieres its newest and heartwarming primetime family drama Annaliza, topbilled by rising teleserye princess Andrea Brillantes with an ensemble of today’s most respected young actors, beginning on May 27 (Monday) before TV Patrol.

The classic 80s soap opera returns to television and is set to launch the career of child actress Andrea, who has proven her acting prowess by playing remarkable roles as Princess in E-Boy, young Jessy Mendiola in Sabel and Paraiso, young Kim Chiu in Ina Kapatid Anak, and young Andi Eigenmann in Kahit Puso’y Masugatan.

Annaliza also marks blockbuster actor Zanjoe Marudo’s first ever portrayal as a father in the small screen and serves as the comeback soap for 90s teen superstars Patrick Garcia and Carlo Aquino, whose acting skills were again noticed by the public after their respective cameo appearances in Apoy sa Dagat and Dugong Buhay.

Follow the story of Annaliza, a young girl with a very kind heart who will be raised by a foster father Guido (Zanjoe).

When she is still a baby, Annaliza will be stolen from her biological and wealthy parents—the restopreneurs Lazaro (Patrick) and Isabel (Denise Laurel). It is Stella (Kaye Abad), Lazaro’s avenging ex-lover, who has the baby stolen with the help of her suitor Makoy (Carlo).

Afraid of being caught red-handed, Makoy leaves the child to his best friend Guido, a fishport worker. Despite his average and simple life, Guido wholeheartedly accepts Annaliza and raises her as his own daughter.

Annaliza begins to endure challenges and hardships in her young life when Guido eventually marries Stella and leaves for Saudi in hopes of giving them a better life. But fate rewards Annaliza’s innate goodness by bringing her closer to Isabel and Lazaro, not knowing they are her true parents.

How will Annaliza discover her true identity? How will she suffer in the hands of Stella? In the end, who will she choose? Her true parents who want to make up for the lost time or the man who raised her and treated her as his own?

Also included in the cast are Khalil Ramos, Sue Ramirez, Kiko Estrada, Shy Carlos, Kyline Alcantara, Jillian Aguila, and Reign Tolentino. Annaliza is under the direction of Theodore Boborol and Cathy Camarillo and under the supervision of award-winning director and new ABS-CBN business unit head Ruel S. Bayani.
