Camille Prats, Kiko Estrada & Martin Del Rosario Sign Exclusive Contracts With GMA Network

CAMILLE PRATS, Kiko Estrada and Martin del Rosario inked exclusive contracts with GMA Network last September 2 at the GMA Network Center. Present in the contract signing were GMA Senior Vice President for Entertainment Lilybeth G. Rasonable, GMA Vice President for Entertainment Marivin T. Arayata, GMA Assistant Vice President for Drama Cheryl C. Sy, GMA Senior Assistant Vice President for Alternative Productions Gigi S. Lara, GMA Artist Center Assistant Vice President and Head for Talent Imaging and Marketing Unit Simoun F. Ferrer and manager Arnold Vegafria.

Kapuso actress Camille Prats, who hosts "Mars" on GMA News Channel, acknowledged the challenging projects that the Network has been giving her and she’s looking forward to work and grow more as an actress in GMA.

“Ever since naman po, I’ve been very happy with GMA as my home network, and happy din ako sa mga shows na they’ve been giving me, most of them are really very challenging, especially itong Second Chances na I had to cut my hair short for this role. I took it as a really good challenge. I’m working with Direk Laurice Guillen and a really, really good ensemble cast, so very very happy, and excited. Tsaka ngayon parang ang sarap din sa feeling na you’re still part of the network where I’ve been staying for the past years. So I’m very happy talaga where I am now, and I’m glad na mayroon ulit akong pagkakataon na magawa ‘yung gusto kong gawin which is acting,” says Camille.

Upon signing the contract, promising young star Kiko Estrada says he’s very pleased to be back in GMA after trying briefly to work with ABS-CBN. “I’m really thankful to GMA because they gave me a new project, Strawberry Lane, right away. I’m back and I’m happy. So I’m going to work harder because I want to be one of the best actors someday.”

Meanwhile, Martin del Rosario, also from ABS and was first seen on GMA in "Rhodora X", assures the Network that he will be committed in giving his best in every project that the management will give him. “Masaya po ako dahil matagal ko nang hinihintay ang araw na ito. Ngayon po, official na Kapuso na ako. I’m very excited sa magagandang proyekto na ipagkakatiwala sa akin ng GMA and I will give my best para maipakita na pinahahalagahan ko ang tiwalang ibingay nila,” says Martin.

Rasonable shared that she is very happy that Camille, Kiko and Martin inked exclusive contracts with GMA and noted that they are good addition to GMA Network’s stable of talents. “Kaya naman natin piniling mapunta sila sa atin or i-renew in the case of Camille, kasi alam natin na makakadagdag sa ating stable of talents na magagaling sa drama.”

She added that the three stars will be given drama projects to showcase their knack for acting. “Si Camille, she’s already doing Second Chances na talagang you’ll see a different Camille this time that will test her acting prowess talaga. And then si Kiko also, is doing primetime soap, Strawberry Lane. Si Martin, he just did a very impressive Magpakailanman, and we’re preparing a soap for him. So lahat ‘yan, drama.”
