Karla Estrada on Jolina Magdangal not sending her a message

Published Apr 22, 2023 08:44 am
Is Karla Estrada bothered that Jolina Magdangal didn't send her a congratulatory message after she was tapped as new host of TV5's "Face 2 Face?" Melai Cantiveros, their co-host on "Magandang Buhay" did. "Congrats sa new show mo. I-enjoy mo yung show. I'm sure marami kang ma-inspire na tao," Melai told Karla in a video greeting played during the press conference. Asked if she's bothered about Jolina's seeming silence, Karla said, "Hindi ko yan naisip." "Kasi kilala ko si Momshie Jols, may mga reasons tayo na dapat irespeto bilang kaibigan. Ako lang 'to, kung paano ako magkaibigan, hindi ako judgemental sa mga kaibigan ko. Ang importante alam kong magkaibigan kami. So ayokong bigyan ng rason si Momshie Jols dahil siya yun. But I don't think na merong problema. I don't think may problemang personal."
She stressed: "Si Momshie Mels, ganyan naman ang pagkatao niya bilang kaibigan. So i-celebrate natin yung kanilang mga type gawin bilang mga kaibigan ko." Note that "Face 2 Face" marks Karla's return to television after she ended her five-year journey on “Magandang Buhay” late last year. She left the show some months prior after she decided to run for public office. Meanwhile, in a separate interview, Karla reiterated that all is well between her and her former network. "Definitely walang nasunog na tulay. In fact, sobrang happy sila. Even Tita Cory (Vidanes) sobrang happy kaya," she shared. "Hindi na rin kasi uso ang pagsunugan ng tulay ngayon. Ang uso ngayon ay talagang parang pwede ka na; na para lahat nakakapag trabaho ka, nagiging partners na ang lahat," she added.
Karla believes it is a win-win situation for both parties. "Mas maganda yun sa aming mga artista, sa mga boss na nagtatrabaho sa industriya dahil mas marami kaming oportunidad na pagtatrabahuhan," was how she put it. "Wag na tayong mag-sunog ng tulay kasi ang dami pang tulay na pwedeng gawin sa mga probinsya," she quipped. On the other hand, aside from Melai, Karla's other colleagues in showbiz like KaladKaren and Vina Morales sent her their well-wishes, same with House Speaker and Leyte 1st district Rep. Martin Romualdez and Tingog Party-list Rep. Yedda Marie Romualdez. Former hosts of "Face 2 Face" Amy Perez and Gelli de Belen also did the same. "Congratulations! Sigurado ako na marami kang matutulungan sa show na ito at marami ka ring matututunan," said Gelli to Karla. "I only did 'Face 2 Face' few months pero it was such a learning experience for me. It was also humbling. Marami akong realizations as I was doing 'Face 2 Face.' It's so interesting and it's so grounding. So cheers to you. I know you are going to do a good job. Enjoy!" As for Amy, Karla revealed she actually visited the latter at home and received generous advice. "Si Tyang Amy, inumpisahan niya ito. So sabi niya: 'Umpisahan mo yung bago. Umpisahan mong ikaw. Wag mong umpisahang ako... Pero ito ang maganda diyan, ito ang relax ka lang. Kumalma ka.' So marami kaming pinag-usapan. But at the end of the day, tinapos naming masaya at tinapos naming maganda ang aming usapan bilang magka-mag-anak." "Nakaka-happy na merong mga support mula sa dating hosts." It's her first time working in TV5. "I'm very excited. Merong isang pintong nagbukas para sa akin. Pintong paparamihin para marami pang makapasok na matutulungan." "Face 2 Face" will showcase the “barangay hall on air” starting May 1 on TV5 and on One PH, available on Cignal Ch. 1, SatLite Ch. 1, and Cignal Play. The 2023 reboot will present Mama Karla as host with comedian Alex Calleja as a mediator.
"Face 2 Face" gives a fresh take on the popular talk show’s format with its new mantra, “Isyu ay harapin, huwag palakihin” as it features real people with real problems and finds the best possible resolution to their conflicts. Ready to help resolve these issues are the show’s resident Trio Tagapayo – “Dr. Love” Bro. Jun Banaag representing the clergy, Atty. Lorna Kapunan giving legal advice, and Dr. Camille Garcia sharing her perspectives as a psychologist.
