Kung naging close na sa isa’t isa sina Erich Gonzales at Jason Abalos bago pa man sila nagkatambal sa kasalukuyang ginagawa nilang first project together, the series, Two Wives dala nga na pareho silang sumali sa Star-Circle Quest (SCQ), a search for new talents organized by ABS-CBN, ganundin sina Kaye Abad at Patrick Garcia.
Well in the SCQ, Erich emerged the top winner; Jason a runner-up.
In the case of Kaye and Patrick, both Star Magic (the discovery and talent arm ng ABS-CBN) talents, they were cast along with several other teenagers in the teleserye, Tabing Ilog.
‘‘We were not magka-love team sa series,’’ Kaye recalled. ‘‘But I cannot forget na siya (Patrick) ang naging escort ko, nang magdiwang ako ng aking 18th birthday at nagkaroon ng isang bonggang party, courtesy ng Star Magic,’’ kuwento ni Kaye.
But while Kaye remained a Kapamilya, to date, Patrick, for a time, when his contract with the Network expired, tried his luck sa GMA-7, where in fairness, nabigyan naman siya ng ilang assignments.
Sa kanyang pagiging Kapuso rin naging dyowa niya si Jennylyn Mercado, contract talent ng network, na nagbunga ng isang Alex Jazz.
Patrick nagpa-sexy na sa TV!
Unang naging project ni Patrick, when he returned as a Kapamilya ang pre-evening series, Annaliza, top billed by child actress Andrea Brillantes.
In the cast as well were Zanjoe Marudo and Kaye Abad.
In Two Wives, bagama’t supposedly kasal si Kaye kay Jason, magkakarelasyon sila ni Patrick.
How this happened, kiming isinaad ni Patrick ay dapat abangan sa Two Wives.
And higit sa lahat, ang mga intimate scenes together nila ni Kaye, ay first attempt niya, ayon kay Patrick, to really go sexy on TV.
Nagpipigil lang manligaw, baguhang young actor bumigay na sa young actress
Guess Salve A., kung sino itong young new actor na umaming sobrang nahuhulog ang loob sa kanyang co-star, who is playing his sister, in an ongoing top series, top billed by two actors na unprecedented ang popularity sa kasalukuyan?
Wala raw ideya ang bagets of his fellow bagets co-star how he feels about her. For one, aminado siyang napakabata pa nito. And not only does she look it, kung hindi her every move, kumbaga, shows it.
Someone behind his career advises him not to take any move na kanyang pagsisihan, considering na napaka-promising din niya, tulad ng bagets na babae, as an actor.
Tutal naman daw, paliwanag pa sa kanya ng kanyang adviser, eventually may ‘‘makakapansin’’ among the ‘‘powers’’ behind their series sa kanilang kakaibang chemistry, which could be the key sa pagiging successful nila as a love team.
Pero, tanong nga ng isang malapit din sa binatilyo: paano napipigilan ang pag-ibig?
Angelica cool na cool lang sa pandadawit sa kanya ng ex-wife ni Derek
