KD Estrada and Alexa Ilacad

KD Estrada is excited about his first US tour together with fellow Kapamilya artists and screen tandem Alexa Ilacad. The young actor said he can't wait to meet their fans in the US and enjoy the sightseeing tours in between performances.


“Well siyempre first time namin ni Alexa mag-abroad together and first time namin mag-show together abroad. We’re there for work of course. But during our rest days, I think we would want to walk around and just try the food there and take pictures, ganyan. I don’t really have a specific thing in mind. I just want to go with the flow. Whatever we see, i-ta-try na lang namin because that’s how usually we make memories together,” KD said.

 
Four years after signing with Star Magic, KD is nothing but happy with the way his career is building up.
“Honestly, it still feels like a dream. I remember I joined Star Magic at 16 years old, and I never thought that I would make it this far. Right now, I’m 20 years old. I still have a lot going on. And parang I’m just super thankful to all the fans here in the Philippines and dun sa abroad, and they really want to see us live, and finally we get to see them live. To our fans abroad, we’ll give you a good show!” he said.

 
Apart from KD and Alexa, Kapamilya artists that will be joining the concert tour abroad include Belle Mariano, Donny Pangilinan, Andrea Brillantes, Gigi De Lana, Carlo Aquino, Maris Racal, BGYO, Edward Barber, Maymay Entrata, Janine Berdin, Kyle Echarri, Kim Chiu, Eric Nicolas, Charlie Dizon, Zanjoe Marudo, AC Bonifacio, Liam Kaila, Sab, and Angela Ken.



TV host-turned-movie actress Lovely Abella shared her biggest acting career blessing at the special advance screening of the film “The Expat”.

Lovely revealed that she worked on the film four years ago and in God's perfect time, it's finally going to be shown in cinemas.

"This is my first international movie. Four years ago pa namin ginawa ang 'The Expat.' Last Sunday, napanood ko siya at grabe ang kaba ko. Kasi hindi ako magaling sa English at 'yun ang totoo nahirapan ako basahin ang script. Umiiyak ako kay Benj Manalo na di ko na tatanggapin kahit lead role ako pero sabi niya Babe kaya mo yan, maniwala ka sa sarili mo at dumating pa sa punto na kinausap ko si Jerald Napoles at ang sabi niya sakin Ga, tanggapin mo kasi kaya ka nakuha diyan dahil nakita nilang kaya mo. May mga tao talagang mas mag pupush sayo na gawin ang mga bagay na akala mo hindi mo kaya. Heto na pinanood ko na. Nung pinapanood ko, alam kong hirap ako sa lines. Pero after ng movie, may mga nagsasabi na ang galing mo. Sa isip ko, totoo ba? Pero sumakto sa character ko yung totoong ako. Alam ko si Lord ang kasama ko ng mga oras na 'to, kaya naging magaling ako sa ibang mata ng mga nanood. Lord maraming salamat po dito. Napakagandang blessing na may international movie ako at napapanood sa USA. Thank you sa aking mga co-actor and kay direk na di ako pinabayaan,” she said.


"The Expat" is now showing in the US, and Canada and streaming on iTunes.
