PNS — DINGDONG Dantes and Marian Rivera had a joint celebration of their birthdays in “Party Pilipinas” last Sunday. They have reason to celebrate as the ratings of their soap, “Endless Love,” went even higher when it was shown after “Ilumina.” What can they say about this? “May sariling following ang love team namin, but more than that, ‘yung magandang story ang nagdadala rito,” he says. “Talaga susundan mo what happens sa love story nina Johnny at Jenny, the characters we play.”
“Also, on and off screen, I think may nakikitang chemistry sa’ming dalawa ang mga tao,” adds Marian. “That’s priceless, kasi hindi mo puwedeng puwersahin ‘yun o pilitin. It’s something valuable na nakikita nila sa amin kasi maganda talaga ang rapport namin sa isa’t isa kaya mas masarap talagang magtrabaho. Another factor is mahuhusay ang co-stars namin like Dennis Trillo as Andrew na handa talagang magpakasakit for me even if his mom, Kuh Ledesma, hates me, at si Nadine Samonte as Shirley na gagawin naman ang lahat to make me miserable. Mapipilitan akong sagutin si Andrew pero si Johnny pa rin talaga ang mahal ko kahit malapit na siyang pakasal kay Bella Padilla.”
