On September 6, celebrities Marco Gumabao, Jerald Napoles, Kim Molina, and Pepe Herrera attended the premiere night for ‘Kidnap for Romance’ to show support for Cristine Reyes and Empoy Marquez.
During the premiere night of ‘Kidnap for Romance’ at SM Megamall, which LionhearTV covered, Gumabao went out to support Reyes’ comedy movie.
“Ako sobrang excited na ko, I’m sure, magse-selos ako dito kay Empoy.
“Okay naman, siyempre may pangalan naman na si Empoy eh so okay lang naman ako. Hindi of course, sobrang excited ako na na makita ‘yung tandem nila of course.”
Napoles and Molina jokingly discussed their closeness with the stars Marquez and Reyes.
“Itong dalawang bida natin, eh sobrang close namin, na naawa naman ako kay Empoy, na nakiusap sa akin. Magfrie-friendship over daw kami kapag hindi daw ako pumunta dito. Sabi ko sige, best-friend pupuntahan ko ‘yan, pero hindi ikaw ang panoorin ko, si Aha,” said Napoles.
“Si Christine kasi ano eh, sabi niya, ‘hindi ka talaga manonood niyan, sasabihin ko sa lahat na twin-sisters tayo eh.’ So shet, baka malaman ng tao na magkamukha tayo, ayaw ko, o edi pupunta na lang ako baka kasi lumabas ‘yung katotohanan eh.
“Pero, really very, very proud kami with our friends. Nandito kami, all-out support,” Molina added.
Herrera highlighted the comedic chemistry between Marquez and Reyes.
“‘Yung kalokohan ni Empoy, hindi, ang ganda kasi ng chemistry nila napansin ko sa trailer pa lang kaya excited din ako.”
