There seems to be a “manhunt” on social media as fans combed every nook and cranny of social media to find Kathryn Bernardo’s first-ever crush.
In a happy banter, Pilipinas Got Talent judges and hosts —Bernardo, Freddie M. Garcia, Eugene Domingo, Donny Pangilinan, Robi Domingo and Melai Cantiveros -— talked about their first-ever crushes. Cantiveros, FMG and Domingo revealed their first crushes were their neighbors. Pangilinan admitted he had a crush on Hollywood actress Natalie Portman while host Domingo said he had a crush on Shaina Magdayao when he was younger.
Many were piqued when it was Bernardo’s turn to reveal who her first-ever crush was.
“Kapag crush ko, mas lalo ko ‘yun hindi kakausapin. Mas lalong hindi mo talaga mararamdaman, kahit isabit mo ako, hindi ko aaminin na crush kita, ‘yung ganun,” Bernardo said in the show’s 6 April episode. (If he’s your crush, the more I will not talk to him. The more you will not feel it, even if you hang me, I will not admit you’re my crush, that kind.)
“Ang first-ever crush ko, siguro Grade 2 ako nun sa probinsiya namin. ‘Yung first ever, mestizo siya,” she added. (My first-ever crush, maybe I was in grade two in our province. The first ever, he’s a mestizo.)
Later she named her crush.
“Okay. Ang name niya ay Kenneth,” she said. (His name is Kenneth.)
With this, fans turned social media upside down, trying to locate the first guy who made Bernardo’s heart throbbed.
“So, umpisahan ko na bang isa-isahin yung Kenneth dito sa Cabanatuan, Kathryn? Hahahaha! Na-curious tuloy ako bigla! How lucky you are, Kenneth hahaha naging crush ka lang naman ng isang Kathryn Bernardo,” one fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter). (So, will I start looking for Kenneth in Cabanatuan, Kathryn? I became curious instantly. How lucky you are, Kenneth, to be the crush of one Kathryn Bernardo.)
Richard Gutierrez admits that taping for Incognito was a big challenge for the whole cast composed of Ian Veneracion, Kaila Estrada, Baron Geisler, Maris Racal, Anthony Jennings and Daniel Padilla.
“Everyday was very challenging. We have to adapt. We have to survive and do our job the best way we can,” Gutierrez said during the mid-season mediacon titled “Nihon Saga” for the show Monday, 7 April.
Taping for two locations, one in Japan and the other in Itogon, Benguet l, make the cast’s work a tad more challenging. More so as they were made to endure in extreme weather conditions.
The cast brave the ultra cold weather in Japan which director Lester Pimentel Ong revealed in his Instagram post made the taping “Ten times more difficult.”
“Mahirap talaga ang weather conditions. When your hands get wet, that’s it. We have to use waterproof gloves, waterproof shoes and everything. It was hard. There’s a lot of challenging conditions but we were able to manage,” Gutierrez, who plays Jose Bonifacio, son of a military general who was discharged from service because of his involvement in mutiny.
“We experienced legit snow fall. Maybe he chose the place which had the most snow because we really wanted to capture a different terrain. Hats off to our group because they went through a lot, managing all the equipments, the camera and the lenses. With that kind of weather conditions, it’s really challenging for everyone,” he added.
For Gutierrez, no task is mission impossible.
“I think a mission is impossible if you do it alone. But if you’re with a team, with a unit, anything is possible,” he said.
