Girl and boy, both 'Marangal'

Published Oct 31, 2018 04:05 pm
Several months ago, I featured vlogger Michelle Fox a.k.a. Vavaeng Marangal (na mukhang mas marangal pa sa’kin!). This time let’s give the spotlight to the man behind her success – her boyfriend, the lalaking marangal Kramer Ford. (kaano-ano kaya sya ni Xander Ford?!!) Kramer Ford and Michelle Fox (mb.com.ph) Kramer Ford and Michelle Fox “Kababata ko talaga sya. Bago pa sya mag-start mag-vlog, naging kami na. Three years na kami ngayon,” Kramer said. (Road to forever na ba ito?!) He was with Michelle from the start when the latter decided to do make-up vlogs. (Nag make up din si Kramer?!) “Madalas ako ’yung photographer and videographer nya, pag may fini-film syang makeup drama kung tawagin nya, or makeup tutorial. Pero pag may mga daily vlogs naman kami, palaging ako ang kasama nya. Lalo na ngayong may bago kaming series na ‘Catching Up With Vavaeng Marangal,’” Kramer said. (May pagcatching up?!) His name and monicker is a product of their vlogs. “Kramer is my first name ‘Remark’ na binaliktad lang ni Michelle. Kaya naging Kramer. Ford naman it’s my favorite brand na Tom Ford. “Lalakeng Marangal naman dahil din ito kay Michelle. Sabi nya para bagay sa bansag sa kanyang Vavaeng Marangal ay dapat ako daw ang Lalakeng Marangal.” (Eh ako kaya, anong title ko?!) Kramer considers vlogging a worthwhile activity. (Baka naman tayo may pwedeng gawing activity, bro!) “Happy ako kasi parang diary na din namin together at the same time. Kahit papano natututunan na namin pareho about camera and compositions kahit na di naman namin napag-aralan ito before.” (Lakas maka Mara Clara ng diary!) Lalaking Marangal promises to support his girlfriend all the way while exploring more opportunities on his own. (Tara, mag-explore tayo, bro!) “Dati pangarap kong maging model at pumasok sa PBB, hanggat napunta kami sa vlogging. So ngayon para na din kaming nasa loob ng PBB kasi anytime we want to film, eh press ko lang record button ng camera namin and then start vlogging na. Pero open naman po ako sa mga nag babalak na kumuha sa’kin for a project,” Kramer said, laughing. (Tara bro may balak ako. Push!)
