SINAMPOLAN agad ng Queen of All Media na si Kris Aquino ang Kapamilya young actor na si Joshua Garcia.
Makakasama ni Kris si Joshua at ang girlfriend nitong si Julia Barretto sa bagong pelikula ng Star Cinema na “I Love You Hater”.
Kuwento ni Kris, napanood daw niya ang emosyonal na interview ni Joshua sa Tonight With Boy Abunda tungkol sa estado ng relasyon nila ni Julia at ang pagkaka-link niya sa isang female netizen. Diretsong sabi ni Tetay kay Joshua, “Can you please behave? Sa ganda ba naman nito (sabay turo at tingin kay Julia)?”
Hirit pa ng nagbabalik-Kapamilyang award-winning TV host, “But sometimes kasi minsan ang boys di naa-appreciate ang ganito kaganda. Minsan mag-try muna ng ano, not so, and doon mo naa-appreciate ngayon yung halos mawala, huwag mo nang hintayin mawala.”
Payo pa ni Kris sa tambalang JoshLia, alagaan ang kanilang partnership, “Congratulations to the both of you kasi the two of you talaga have onsceen magic so please take care of it yung ano talaga and that’s actually I said yes kasi nung nakita ko, sabi ko, ‘Oh my God,’ Sabi ko I get to work with two of the most talented na parang sabi ko perfect for the role.”
Pumirma ng one-picture contract si Kris sa Star Cinema para nga sa “I Love You Hater”, sabi nga niya sa panayam matapos ang contract signing, “I am super excited and I am more excited because hearing the way the story will run, ‘yung parang na-excite ako to work with two of I think, the most exciting ‘yung nakakatuwa sila kasi there’s still super authentic.”
Talagang pinanood daw ni Kris ang mga pelikula nina Joshua at Julia bago sila magsimulang mag-shooting, “I really watched everything that the two of you did and I super duper love, ‘Love You To The Stars And Back,’ and as in ‘yung nag-collapse (yung character ni Joshua) sa banyo, literal naiyak talaga ako.
“And the fact that ‘Unexpectedly Yours’ was really about Robin (Padilla) and Sharon (Cuneta), the fact that the two of (them) were still shining, ito sabihin ko talaga, I texted this to (Roxy Liquigan) sabi ko Julia is really an actress and I said si Joshua has this special charisma that just really comes once in a generation,” chika pa ni Tetay.
Siyempre, super excited din ang JoshLia sa project nila with the Social Media Queen, ani Julia, “Actually very blessed kami ni Josh na we have been given the opportunity to work again with another icon, as we would say it. Actually I got excited especially when I saw the treatment. I can’t see anybody else doing her part, her role.”
Dagdag pa ng dalaga, “Nag-effort talaga ako that when I heard that they wanted Ms. Kris to take it, I texted Erich (Gonzales) right away, please help me, na di ko nga sinabi sa Star eh. Dumiretso na rin ako.
Sana sa akin na lang manggaling na we really want to work with her with this one. It’s something to look forward to. It fits her so perfectly.”
Hirit naman ni Joshua, “Masayang-masaya lang talaga ko ngayon kasi siyempre isa na namang icon ang makakatrabaho namin.”
