KYLINE Alcantara is elated that after getting to work with Nora Aunor in her last teleserye, “Bilangin ang Bituin sa Langit”, she now gets to work with Heart Evangelista, Paolo Contis and Richard Yap in her new show, “I Left My Heart in Sorsogon”.

“I look up to all of them,” she says. “Our show is a congregation of beautiful and talented artists. Ate Heart is one fashion icon I really admire ever since. Si Kuya Paolo naman, nakatrabaho ko noon pa sa ‘Studio 7’ then in ‘All Out Sundays’ and he’s always been so warm and maloko, kaya enjoy ako working with him. Si Kuya Richard Yap, mysterious ang dating sa akin and I dunno how to approach him, but siya pa ang naunang bumati sa akin.”

So how is it doing lock in taping in Sorsogon? “Si Ate Heart, sobra akong nagulat as she acted like a glue sa set who connected us all together. She was like a tourist guide and made sure everyone is okay during the whole shoot. She’s like a ray of sunshine, acts like a real Ate to me and even gives tips about life, love and career and I really appreciate that. In short, we had so much fun during our lock in taping in Sorsogon. I’m from Bicol myself and I love the people, sobrang mababait, masayahin at matulungin. Mga uragon talaga.”

She is paired with Mavy Legaspi and the show officially introduces their love team. How would she describe her relationship with him as of the moment?

“I know this will sound like a showbiz answer, but I really enjoy his company, from the bottom of my heart,” she says. “As of now, we’re good friends, but we don’t know about the future. We’ll see.

No need naman to rush as we’re both still so young.”

What does she like in him? “He’s brought up well by his parents so he’s really a gentleman. Sa lahat ng lalaking nakilala ko, siya talaga ang pinaka-gentleman. Nagagalit siya kapag ako ang nagbubukas ng pinto at nagtitimpla ng kape. He’d tell me, dapat siya raw ang gumagawa noon. Nakakakilig siempre, nakakadalagang Pilipina.”

How do her fans called the Sunflowers accept Mavy as her suitor? “Okay naman sa kanila si Mavy kasi wala siyang history na sinaktan niya ako or anything. And he’s really been a friend ever since I moved here to GMA. They promised to support our tandem in ‘I Left My Heart in Sorsogon’ and we’re glad na maganda naman ang acceptance ng viewers sa aming show which is now being aired on GMA Telebabad.”
