Hit Teen-Oriented Show 'LUV U' Turns One Year!

 Teen comedy series “LUV U” celebrates its first anniversary this February and according to one of its lead stars Miles Ocampo, she didn’t expect such warm acceptance from the viewers.

 “I had my doubts at first because everything was new; from the concept to our love teams,” she said.

Majority of the main cast came from the kiddie gag show “Goin’ Bulilit” but according to them, the transition wasn’t that hard. “After I graduated from Goin Bulilit, LUV U was my next major show,” said Miles. “I adjusted well because in Goin Bulilit, we were kids portraying as adults but in LUV U, we act as ourselves,” she said.

Marco Gumabao, Miles’ partner in LUV U, is the only newcomer in show business.

“It’s really fun to think that a year has already passed and my bond with Miles is still going strong. We even landed roles as a couple in the teleserye Kailangan Ko’y Ikaw. I’m really thankful to this show because it hones our acting skills,” he said.

According to the cast, they have a lot of ‘kilig moments’ in store for their viewers as another year unwraps. During their romantic anniversary celebration, they will have American composer and singer David Pomeranz as guest. “He’ll sing during our JS Prom in LUV U, so don’t miss it,” said Kiray Celis.

This Sunday (February 3), Principal Spencer (Smokey Manaloto) will announce the JS Prom which will make everyone excited. Will Camille (Miles), April (Angeli), Whitney (Kiray), JB (Marco), Boom (CJ) and Rocky (Igi Boy) be paired with the love of their lives on this special occasion ?

Kiray Prefers to Play 'Kontrabida' Roles!

She lands roles in heavy drama, romance and comedy but according to teen actress Kiray Celis, her most unforgettable experiences are as a ‘kontrabida’.

“My first kontrabida role was in Mara Clara. I found it really challenging to be a ‘maldita’ and I wasn’t sure at first if I was doing or saying the right things. But when I found out that a lot of viewers were starting to hate the character I was portraying, I felt comfortable with my acting,” she said.

If given a chance, she said she wants to get other villain roles. “It’s thrilling to be the one causing trouble,” she added. However, she clarified that comedy will always be a part of her because she loves making people happy just like what her character does in “LUV U”.

This Sunday (January 13) on “LUV U”, Whitney’s (Kiray) classmates will pull a prank on her by uploading a funny video of her on YouTube. Things will have a turnaround when a talent agency sees it and takes interest on signing her up for modeling.

Will this finally jump start Whitney's career? Find out on “LUV U” this Sunday (January 13) after “ASAP 18” on ABS-CBN.(www.tvseriescraze.blogspot.com

A Second Chance for the Miles Ocampo-Marco Gumibao Relationship in 'LUV U!'

“Not because you made a mistake means you’re not anymore worthy of trust. Everyone deserves a second chance,” she said. Apart from this, she also included prioritizing her studies more in her resolutions. “There are times I would come to class late and miss quizzes and assignments so this year, I will try my best to change that.”

It’s the same for actor Marco Gumabao, Miles’ onscreen partner in “LUV U”, who is currently an AB Psychology student at De La Salle University. “This is my first year in college so I found it really difficult to manage both career and studies at first but I learned that it’s all about time management and setting priorities,” he said.
