Is Barbie Forteza Envious Of Bea Binene'S Having A Title Role Show On Primetime?

BARBIE FORTEZA’s “Ikaw Lang ang Mamahalin” will end next week and will be replaced by Kylie Padilla’s “The Good Daughter”. Is it true she’s envious of Bea who not only plays the title role but whose show is also on evening primetime whereas her show is in the afternoon? “Hindi po ako inggitera,” she says. “We Tween Stars support each other at masaya kaming lahat kami, nabibigyan ng projects. Galing na rin po ako sa primetime in ‘Pilyang Kerubin’ and ‘First Time’. Although they say na we’re rivals, hindi po namin yun iniisip and we just do our work. Happy nga po ako for Bea kasi bagay sa kanya ang ‘Alice Bungisngis’ dahil bungisngis talaga siya.”

The scene they’re taping when we visited them is the climax of the show. Just as they thought that Sheryl Cruz as the evil Amara Luna is dead, it turns out she’s still alive and while Barbie’s birthday is being celebrated, she abducts Barbie and puts a bomb on her, making things very tense for everyone concerned. Both Barbie and partner Joshua Dionisio were in formal wear in that party scene and they do look good together. What’s their next show after “Ikaw Lang ang Mamahalin”?

“We don’t know yet,” says Barbie. “What I heard is that yung movie namin nina Derrick and Lexi, ‘The Road’, will be shown in the U.S. Sana, mapili akong mapadala roon para makarating naman ako sa America, kaya lang, wala pa kong visa.”

Joshua was not with her in that movie. What if GMA would pair her with another actor for her next show? “If I’d be made to choose, si Joshua pa rin ang gusto kasi we’re already so comfortable with each other sa kahit anong eksena ipagawa sa amin. But then, siempre, ang GMA ang masusunod diyan. Basta as of now, Joshua and I are still together in ‘Tween Hearts’ every Sunday that got another extension until April.”
