In the episode of “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda” last Friday, the King of Talk asked the Kapuso Teen Queen, Jillian Ward, about her showbiz crush.
“Ah, Coco Martin,” Jillian happily answered Tito Boy’s question in the “Fast Talk” segment.
When asked about her dream concert, Jillian mentioned that her idol Beyonce is the special guest she would love to have.
But as an added bonus, the teen actress said, “At si Tito Boy!”
According to Jillian, eating, doing Tiktok, and bonding are her favorite things to do on the set of their hit Kapuso afternoon series, “Abot Kamay na Pangarap.”
When asked who she’d like to play as a kontrabida (antagonist), Jillian enthusiastically pointed out the mother-and-daughter characters, Moira and Zoey Tanyag, portrayed by Pinky Amador and Kazel Kinouchi, who antagonize her in “Abot Kamay na Pangarap.”
In the interview, Jillian also mentioned being “super close” with her co-star in the series, Jeff Moses. Jillian described the young actor as “super dedicated, very respectful, and highly motivated in life.” Jillian admitted that when she feels burnt out and unmotivated due to her long tenure in the industry since she was young, she finds inspiration in Jeff.
“May time ako na na-bu-burn out, pero mga kaibigan ko tulad ni Jeff, tinitingnan ko ang work ethic niya at na-i-inspire ako kasi sobrang sipag niya,” said the teen star.
When Tito Boy asked Jillian if Jeff is making a move on her, the young lady replied, “I mean sobrang close niya sa ‘kin. Sobrang bait niya. Parang wala naman.” Jillian added with a laugh.
