Here’s the truth behind the viral photo of Barbie Imperial and Xian Lim at a hotel

BARBIE IMPERIAL and XIAN LIM – Some netizens revealed the truth behind the viral photo of the two stars which was taken at a hotel.

Barbie whose real name is Barbara Concina Imperial started in showbiz when she joined the reality show, Pinoy Big Brother: 737.

At the time, she was dubbed “The Doll along the Riles of Albay” probably due to her dollface.

She grew up in a broken family, not seeing her father. She, her mother and older brother used to stay in a house along the railway tracks of the Philippine National Railway in Daraga, Albay.

After her PBB stint, she made a breakthrough in showbiz when she starred in the series Araw Gabi along with JM de Guzman.

On the other hand, Xian whose real name is Alexander Xian Cruz Lim started his showbiz career after landing a supporting role in Katorse in 2009.

He’s also known for his roles in My Binondo Girl, The Reunion, Ina, Kapatid, Anak, Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo?, Bride for Rent, The Story of Us and Everything About Her.

Xian Lim was a contract artist of Star Magic from 2008 to 2017, until signing a contract with Viva Artists Agency in January 2018.

Since 2012, he has notably hosted many major televised events, particularly Binibining Pilipinas as well as Miss Grand International in Vietnam in 2017.

Currently, the two are making rounds online following their photo together at a hotel in Davao Oriental.

Apparently, the photo was swirled with malicious comments.

This prompted some netizens to defend the two at the same time revealing the truth behind it.

According to a netizen, the photo was taken last May 7. The netizen claimed that they were invited for a miting de avance of a political party in Mati City. They stayed at the said hotel for free and obviously in separate rooms since they were considered special guests.
