Ni Nora V. Calderon

THANKFUL si Direk Perci Intalan na natapos na rin niya ang taping ng TV series na Born Beautiful for Cignal TV.

Paolo at Martin

Post niya sa kanyang Instagram: “After nearly a year of development and production, finally it’s a wrap for Born Beautiful. Thank you to our brilliant and dedicated writers, staff, crew and cast – especially to the wonderful Martin del Rosario who is now up there in my list of actors I truly admire. And of course thank you to Paolo Ballesteros who has generously been there with us from start to finish on this beautiful journey. Parang final walk VO speech na ito, so I will just end it by saying I can’t wait for audiences to see this labor of love onscreen. Stay Beautiful, everyone. And I thank you!”

ALAMIN: Viral OOTD ni Carlos Yulo, magkano nga ba?

Umani ito ng magagandang comments at isa si @martinmigueldelrosario sa nagsabing, “Thanks din direk for the big break. Excited na rin ako to watch it. Congrats sa buong BB production.”

Naroon kami sa unang test shots ni Martin as Barbs at todo suporta si Paolo matapos ang success ng pelikula niyang Die Beautiful, na idinirek ni Jun Robles Lana.

Hindi si Martin ang original choice sa role ni Barbs, pero biglang nag-back out ang first choice nila.

Kaagad na naisip nina Direk Perci at Direk Jun si Martin na nakatrabaho nila sa Ang Manananggal sa Unit 23B. Katambal ni Martin sa pelikula si Ryza Cenon, at produced ito ng The Idea First Company. Happy naman si Martin na siya ang napili to play Barbs kahit alam niyang second choice lamang siya.

Kasama sa TV series si Paolo Ballesteros, in a special role as Trisha dahil ang story nito ay magsisimula kung saan natapos ang Die Beautiful, at si Aki Blanco.

Tamang-tama naman na kailangan din ni Martin na mag-slim down dahil kasabay ng taping ng Born Beautiful ay ginagawa naman niya sa GMA 7 ang afternoon prime drama series na Hindi Ko Kayang Iwan Ka, bilang isang HIV patient. Kasama niya rito sina Yasmien Kurdi, Mike Tan, Jackie Rice at si Ms. Gina Alajar.
