Let The Love Begin Cast Says Thank You!

It was so nice to see the cast of Let the Love Begin all smiles during the "Last Hurrah" party that GMA Social Media put up a few days ago. Present during that afternoon were Ms. Rita Avila, Ms. Donita Rose, Sancho Delas Alas, Phytos Ramires, Abel Estanislao, including sweethearts Gabbi Garcia and Ruru Madrid. It was a time to say Thank You to all the countless people who have made their show successful these past few months. Now that the show is ending, they don't want to forget all the support that you've given them so they called in media and online friends to a party in Alab Restaurant in Scout Rallos in Quezon City.

During this time, they let loose, they reminisced about the days they worked so hard during the making of this program. Gabbi and Ruru started by singing for us in front and says making their first debut in Prime Time was a thing they would never forget. Even off cam, I adore Gabbie for her very pleasing personality. She makes you feel welcome, talk to you and happen to do it like you've never lost touch. Ruru on the other hand may have quirks, but that's exactly what makes him cute if you ask the fans who have fallen in love with his character Erick in the show. Gabbi who plays Pia, Erick's childhood sweetheart was trying to take photos of the layout they had in the venue but Ruru went in and covered the view which made her a little irritated during this bit above. In just a few minutes, they were all so sweet and cuddly, that's how close they have become and what I've heard from them is that, they'll truly miss this show.

  

Abel Estanislao grabbed the microphone and began serenading everyone while they were preparing some games for the bloggers. Abel, Phytos and Sancho were super involved when they started some acting contests using the scenes from their show. Let's just say they enjoyed it so much that I couldn't even show some of the photos during that part of the show because it's not for general viewing. I laud these guys for letting the press and other bloggers have fun with them even just for a while.

Ms. Donita Rose couldn't stop laughing when the scenes included her and had the bloggers portray it. Remember the part where she got pregnant? Oh it just became hilarious when the bloggers had a hand in it. She also said a few words towards the end of the program and said "I hope people would stop bashing me because I really didn't know that in the beginning when you portray the role of a contra bida they would really tell you some nasty things! It's just a role po so please don't be mad at me!" and then she laughed. She also thanked everyone in the production and her co actors Ms. Rita Avila by the way was also proud about her book The Invisible Wings because it just got nominated in the Jaime Cardinal Sin Catholic Book Awards, we hope she wins! 

Gabbi Garcia and Ruru Madrid then sang the theme song of the show. As you can see, they didn't stop teasing each other, especially when people were egging them to kiss after the song haha! They were so cute, I could have mistaken them to be officially real boyfriend and girlfriend. They're still concentrating on work though, which would be good for them in the long run. Still, you can't help buy gush on these two!

Oh and at the end of the program, they awarded the cast with some titles they earned during the making of LTLB!

They also thanked their fans, supporters who never missed a day of their show and for sternly supporting them during the show's existence. Today is their last day so if you're at home or have TV, please do watch their last episode and see if Erick and Pia end up together, like happily ever after!

Congratulations Gab and Ruru! Also to everyone who made the series what it is today. You have taught valuable lessons to Pinoys, congratulations on your show as you air your last hurrah!

Jeric Gonzales, Abel Estanislao and Jak Roberto Now Sings as 3logy

There's this boy group, not necessarily a boy band, which I find so unfair because just look at them! It's Jeric Gonzales, Abel Estanislao and Jak Roberto, three guys who have really good individual careers, are joining together to form a group called 3logy. I did say unfair right?

Jeric's been doing a lot of Magpakailanman and Karelasyon episodes. Aside from that, he's in the Dingdong Dantes starrer called Pari 'Koy where he plays Eli Marasigan's character. Aside from a very successful acting career, he's a very spirited singer and they've managed to work out this group when people from GMA Artist Center noticed that they actually look good together when they had workshops a couple of months ago. Abel Estanislao on the other hand has two shows on his helm. He's in the Kristoffer Martin -  Joyce Ching show Healing Hearts and plays Earl while he also is in the Ruru Madrid - Gabbi Garcia prime time show Let the Love Begin (of which I happily saw him again yesterday!). Jak Roberto on the other hand is still in Half Sisters and and the same show as Abel in Pari 'Koy. Evidently, they're all successful in their own right, but why form 3logy?

 

Jak Roberto says "GMA Artist Center saw us first and decided that we sing most of the theme songs of the recent Koreanovelas shown on our station. The first one we ever did was the revived version of "Maybe It's You" that was used for Kim Sam Soon. We all enjoy singing, Jeric can play instruments, so does Abel, and I on the other hand already had a group before so it wasn't really hard to do this. We know our voices. Their initial plan was more of be like the APO Hiking Society where we'd do mostly revival songs, and do it in a more acoustic way. We all played the guitar initially, but we transitioned doing the Koreanovela's theme later on. It's a bit hard to convince people because there are a lot of other artists who probably are better than us but we prepare very hard before a performance just so people would like our music. We're not here to impress, our intention is so that people would enjoy, get entertained when we sing.We have small problems in scheduling because we work in different times. It's a challenge because it's difficult to form a song when one of the members isn't there, including syncing, rehearsals too. We also had to beg off with some of our mall shows because of that, but it's all good. Zeb Zuniga helps us in vocals and Mikoy too, even in blending. I get inspired with singers like Duncan Ramos, I do falsetto's and it's difficult. Maybe we can do a few originals and a few Koreanovela songs as well."

Abel adds "It's in the workshop, that's where they started it all. Mikoy Morales made us our very first original song and that's what we've been singing lately which is called "Pwede Ba!". We sang this first single in Sunday All Stars. Hopefully there will be plans to have an album too, but we prioritized to release something digital first and that's what we have now in OPM2GO.com. Mikoy is currently making more music for us as he says. We're really excited for that. We're also trying to compose, but it hasn't materialized yet. Mikoy is a genius, he mastered that part. He makes good songs, I like it as our voices are not into those dance tracks. I think we'll fit love songs better. That's where you'll hear more blending, as what we're gunning for. As for relationships, mine's a bit complicated. We're not a boyband, I started as a musician before I did showbiz. I was doing jazz and playing in Stonehouse, I did sessions there, music is in my heart, it's my passion. Right now, we're doing this together with our individual shows. We don't have a lead singer, it just depends on the song so we usually alternate. In Pwede Ba, I suggested a few things so when we recorded it he liked it and that landed in the song, we do have small creative inputs. We have covers, we have originals, (then they sang Gusto Kita by Gino Padilla during this bit). I like Rannie Raymundo's music, he sings differently when live. We do work hard in Artist Center, in the next few months I hope the group gets more well known and perhaps get more following too."

Jeric also says "There was one workshop where we were spotted and they knew right then and there that we looked very good together, we have chemistry, so they thought of bringing us together. Then we said "why not?!, why don't we try that!". We're all single, so the song "Pwede Ba" was really perfect for us. We like love songs because we're sweet guys really! LOL. We've been working hard as a group, we bond, we rehearse a lot. We practice our song over and over again so we'd sound good when we perform, and also improve even more. We have challenges because my schedule is different working in Pari 'Koy but we're doing good. We've rehearsed a few songs now so we can do something more if needed be, but we're also concentrating on the Koreanovela songs we can do in our repertoire. I personally like artists that are more in the RnB side, so I get inspired with JayR and Gary V. I do high notes but it depends on the song. Hopefully, we can get an album, that's our goal."

These good looking guys, their songs, all but have nowhere to go but up. Aside from their very promising songs, you can look forward to see them promote not just their shows... but their group as well. You should definitely watch out for 3logy as they come out with more songs, be in more shows in malls, and TV very soon. I can't wait to see their first album, hopefully they could release one before the year ends. They hold a lot of promise, it's just a matter of time when you'll love them all over again when they sing their way into your hearts very soon. Congratulations Jeric, Abel and Jak! This is just the beginning!

Here's a preview of their latest single Pwede Ba
