Andrea Brillantes Expresses Appreciation to Kean Cipriano
ANDREA BRILLANTES – The Kapamilya star expressed her appreciation for singer-actor, Senior High co-star Kean Cipriano.
In an exclusive interview with ABS-CBN showbiz reporter MJ Felipe last Saturday, January 20, Andrea shared the connection she built with some of her co-stars in the recently concluded “Senior High,” a youth-oriented series. She was also asked about the roles of Angel Aquino and Kean Cipriano in guiding and supporting her.
“Actually, lalo na si Kuya Kean, lagi niyang sinasabi ‘O, kumusta ka? Galingan mo lang palagi, ha’. Lagi po lang niyang ipinapaalala sa akin na galingan ko lang; lagi niyang pinapa-brighten up lagi ‘yong mood ko. Si Miss Angel as well lagi lang niya akong kinukumusta,” Andrea recounted.
She added that when it comes to work, they respect each other’s boundaries. They always stay focused, especially during emotional scenes, even though they occasionally joke around. “Kahit si Kuya Kean na laging nagjo-joke nararamdaman ko talaga nale-lessen niya talaga…Minsan sa mga emotional scene, laging pinapagaan ni Kuya Kean lahat ng bagay. Super ko talaga siyang na-appreciate,” she said.
In the earlier part of the interview, MJ asked Andrea who among her co-stars in the said series she is closest to. According to Andrea: “My mommy. Miss Angel Aquino po. Miss Angel Aquino and Kuya Kean Cipriano, my step dad doon sa show. ‘Yong family ko talaga.”
Andrea also revealed in the same interview how she managed to handle the criticisms she received in the last months of 2023. To recall, the actress was heavily criticized after being tagged as the third party in the controversial breakup of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, popularly known as KathNiel. Besides her, several women were also linked to the actor-heartthrob, including Kaye Abad, Gillian Vicencio, Alexa Ilacad, and a Vietnamese woman.
