Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano, the famous Kapamilya loveteam, will go overseas together for the first time.
But did you know that the two were set to produce a beautiful movie in a distant location, but it was canceled because to the COVID-19 pandemic?
The cast of the successful ABS-CBN sitcom “He’s Into Her” expressed their disappointment and sadness that the project was canceled.
The good news is that they will be traveling to America next month with other Star Magic performers for the “Beyond the Stars: Star Magic US Tour.”
“We were supposed to have a project abroad actually during the pandemic. We were so excited for that pero hindi nag-push through so medyo na-sad kami.
“So ngayon, nung sinabi na mag-a-abroad kami for work, not just work kasi marami kaming time to go around as well. Sobrang excited kami.
“First time namin mag-abroad together, to go through many first times there na yung mga sightseeing, eating in different places, seeing a lot of experiences with our co-artists.
“It’s a dream come true and we’re just excited to go through it all together,” Donny said.
Belle said, “Of course I’m really looking forward to this. Honestly, this being my first time to go to the US as well.
“And what more na kasama ko siya (Donny), kasama ko silang lahat. I’m sure it’s something that I’m really looking forward to. It’s something that I’m really excited about.
“Just to experience a whole new different country since feeling ko I’ve been stuck here in the Philippines for almost four years, I haven’t been able to travel talaga since nagkaroon ng pandemic. But now I’m given the opportunity to do that and I’m really excited,” Belle said.
What is Donny’s plan in their free time in the US, “This is our first time traveling together and one thing that I am really looking forward to is eating sa may mga food carts sa gilid in New York.
“Because I’m watching a show na may ganu’n nga. I’m watching Suits now. Sobrang na-excite ako kasi first time kong gagawin yun!” ang tumatawang chika pa ni Belle.”
Aside from their US shows, they have another one coming up next month. Donny stated, “Yung August is very overwhelming but grateful schedule for me and Belle because after this US tour we go straight here for the Araneta Coliseum event of He’s Into Her.
“So it’s a whole month of seeing our supporters and being able to give back all the love that they’ve been giving us these past years.
“Maraming maraming salamat. We can’t wait to see you guys. Lahat ng memories magiging memorable talaga.
“Feeling ko kasi the mere fact na first time namin mag-abroad and the mere fact na ang tagal namin dito sa Pilipinas, we haven’t gotten the chance to go abroad because of the pandemic and everything, I think everything will be memorable.
“Like as simple as walking in the street in a different country, seeing different cultures, being able to eat in different restaurants, being able to perform in a different crowd,”
