Angel, Phil exclusively dating only

by Nickie Wang - Manila Standard Today

!n this day and age when young people can easy get a boyfriend or a girlfriend even just after a few encounters on social networking sites, it’s quite hard to believe that young star Angel Locsin and Philippine Azkals most identified member Phil Younghusband are just simply dating.

In an exclusive interview with ManilaStandardToday, Angel and Phil said that they are content with what they have at the moment, and taking “that relationship” to a different level is something they both believe will have to take the back seat.

“We are exclusively dating…we don’t want to rush things,” said Phil and Angel quickly added, “We are just enjoying our every moment together.”

The Azkals striker explained that Angel and he have agreed that they will only date each other and that they will not see any other while in keeping the agreement. But what does “exclusively dating” really means?

Asking most people who have been in and out of different relationships, the phrase denotes both parties decide and make a conscious effort to only be in a romantic relationship with each other. But still every couple has a different definition of what exclusivity is so let just respect Angel and Phil if they can’t elaborate what kind of relationship they have.

Meanwhile, during the official launch of Century Tuna television commercial on Thursday, Angel and Phil were introduced as a couple. But during the entire launch, a sound byte was played on loop quoting Angel saying she’s single, which Phil replies “I like that.”

On a different note, this Century Tuna TVC has been tagged as the culmination of the grand publicity stunt that started in February when Phil asked Angel out on a date publicly on Twitter. But the actress was quick to defend the striker’s virtual proposal.

“We can’t control what people may think about us because they now see us together. Phil is not going to enter showbiz, at hindi naman kami gagawa ng teleserye or movie so what’s the point of making a gimmick?” Angel replied.

This is the very same reason why Angel finds it hard to share her emotion with other people. She is wary that they might misinterpret what she shares with them.

According to the Kapamilya star, the new TVC is not the only endorsement offered to her and Phil. But because they “trust the product” they only said ”yes” to Century Tuna.

To Phil, who keeps on reiterating that Angel is his “lucky charm,” everything is purely business or in other words endorsement will always be an endorsement and if the offer is good, why turn it down?

“It’s my personal choice to endorse the product. When they approached me I instantly said ‘yes.’ I really don’t mind if I would be paired with a different partner. I would still accept the offer,” the 23-year-old athlete affirmed.

Lloydie-Sarah part 3

Any positive report about Sarah Geronimo is a beautiful music to the ears of Popsters, the official name of her fans club. And if the news that Sarah and John Lloyd Cruz movie were a song, it would have been a fast track ditty that calls for a celebration.

The most profitable big screen tandem in local cinema is back. Remember A Very Special Love and You Changed My Life raked almost 500 million pesos in the tills making both John Lloyd and Sarah be honored as the Box Office King and Queen for two consecutive years. For sure fans of Sarah and John Lloyd are extremely thrilled that their clamor to see their idols back together in the big screen has already been given another thought.

In July last year, both camps had confirmed that a third installment to their rom-com movie would no longer push through. Perhaps, the news that John Lloyd denied courting Sarah affected that decision, thus putting Gerald Anderson in the picture. But things have all been patched up and the stars are willing to work together again.

The third installment of the A Very Special Love is going to be directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina, no less. Tentatively titled When a Man Loves a Woman, inspired by the song made famous by American soul and RnB artist Percy Sledge in 1966 and covered by Michael Bolton in the early ‘90s, is set to hit multiplexes early next year. Also in this romantic comedy film, John Lloyd and Sarah will reprise their roles as Miggy Montenegro and Laida Magtalas, respectively. And here’s a twist, Gerald Anderson, who was paired with Sarah in another co-production between Star Cinema and Viva Films released in March this year, is going to play the third wheel.

The official announcement for the third Lloydie and Sarah team-up was made during the Star Cinema Trade Launch when the lineup for 2012 was bared.
