Growing Up (U.B.E) Kapamilya Mall Show at SM Bacoor

I was at SM Bacoor in Cavite last Sunday and happen to see the schedule of their October events. One of the posters says that the Growing Up barkada will have a mall show on October 8, 2011 there at around 4pm.

So if you are a fan of this ABS-CBN youth-oriented show, you might want to take this opportunity the see the whole cast in person. Share this to your friends.

Again, the meet and greet event of Growing Up casts (Kathryn Bernardo, Julia Montest, Kiray Celis, Diego Loyzaga, Daniel Padilla, etc.) will happen this October 8 at SM Bacoor.

Kathryn Bernardo: The Next Young Superstar?

The title of Young Superstar belongs to the award winning actress, Judy Ann Santos because of her immense popularity that is comparable to that of the original superstar, Ms. Nora Aunor.

As Judy Ann’s showbiz career takes a backseat for now because she chose to make

her marriage and children a priority, the country may already be looking for the next star to be given that title.

And of all the young stars today, Kathryn Bernardo is currently being eyed as the one to be the next young superstar. Can she be the next young superstar? As of the moment, she seems to be the most likely candidate because she got the role of Mara in the remake of the teleserye that has launched the career of Judy Ann Santos, Mara Clara. Kathryn Bernardo is also said to be the top choice in the remake of another Judy Ann teleserye, Esperanza. 

With her sweet smile, pleasant looks, superb acting ability and growing number of fans, would you agree with me when I say that Kathryn Bernardo leads the young stars of her generation?

Her full name is Kathryn Chandria M. Bernardo. She was born on March 26, 1996 in Cabanatuan City. She is srudying at OB Montessori and is currently a contract artist of Star Magic. Together with Julia Montes, she is the star of the Star Cinema movie, Way Back Home. Her current show in ABS-CBN is Growing Up.

Daniel Padilla Newest Heartthrob in Town

One man’s loss is another man’s gain- these are the words that can summed up Daniel Padilla’s fate today. This is because he replaces the role of Albie Casino in the new youth-oriented show of ABS-CBN, “Growing Up.” As Albie’s career seems to be stagnant for now, this also means that Daniel will be the new loveteam of Kathryn Bernardo.

His real name is Daniel John Ford Padilla and he was born on April 26,1995. He comes from a family of actors as he is the son of Karla Estrada and Rommel Padilla. He is also a part of the ABS-CBN show, Gimik 2010 but his biggest break so far is the role in “Growing Up.” 

Daniel Padilla is a new young actor which has a very big potential to be a popular matinee idol/heartthrob. Who knows, he might be the country’s next Robin Padilla.
