Amaya's successful road show and mall tour

MARIAN RIVERA was overwhelmed by the warm reception given to her by people who watched her very successful motorcade and mall show to promote “Amaya” in Pangasinan, Pampanga and Nueva Ecija. It’s estimated that about 100,000 people saw the motorcade as it passed through the main streets of Dagupan City and 6,000 saw the mall show at the venue in Stadia Dagupan on Saturday. On Sunday, about 10,000 watched the mall show at SM San Fernando. From there, they had a motorcade to Cabanatuan and it’s said 500,000 onlookers watched them along the way.

“Sobrang init ng araw at nakakapagod kaya pawis na pawis pero tuwang-tuwa kaming lahat ng co-stars ko dahil napakainit ng pagtanggap sa’min ng mga tao sa lahat ng lugar na pinuntahan namin,” says Marian. “Thank you sa kanilang lahat at sana’y tuloy-tuloy lang ang suporta nila sa ‘Amaya’ every night.”

The feedback from TV viewers when she finally appeared in the show last Monday night is also encouraging. Amaya and her sisters Rochelle Pangilinan as Marikit and Glaiza de Castro as Binayaan are now all grownups. “Yes, mga dalaga na kami. At mga binata na rin sina Sid Lucero as Bagani and Mikael Daez as Lumad. At yung ahas na kakambal ko, lumaki na rin siya at hindi siya ordinaryong ahas dahil talking snake siya.”
