“Proposal” of David Licauco and Barbie Forteza
DAVID LICAUCO and BARBIE FORTEZA- The love team partner delighted their fans when they acted out a marriage proposal scene during a thanksgiving dinner for their supporters.
The proposal was meant to create a new ending for the music video “The Way You Look at Me,” and David got down on one knee to pop the question. Barbie, in character as Klay from “Maria Clara at Ibarra,” asked David what her name was, to which David replied, “Binibining Klay, maaari mo ba kong pakasalan?”
However, before David could put the ring on her finger, Barbie joked that she had not said “yes” yet. After a whispered exchange, David put the ring on her finger, and they hugged each other.
David shared the proposal scene was his idea: “Parang inisip ko lang maganda sigurong gawin actually papakasalan… parang gusto na kitang pakasalan, ganon.” The intimate thanksgiving dinner was held to thank their fans for their support of “The Way You Look at Me” music video, which has more than 1.3 million views. Barbie and David also reenacted some of the most kilig scenes from the music video, including David catching Barbie as she falls.
Barbie expressed her gratitude to their fans and shared that they were honored to do the music video, which had a heartfelt story. She also mentioned that their series “Maria Clara at Ibarra” reached number one on Netflix Philippines and won a bronze medal at the 2023 New York Festivals for Entertainment Program: Drama.
David LIcauco added, “Lahat ng ‘to ay dahil sa fans na sumusuporta sa aming dalawa ni Barbie so super thank you.” Furthermore, their fans have more to look forward to as they are currently shooting a new project together.
