Kathryn Bernardo shares why Daniel Padilla is the ‘best guy ever’

Although fans of Kathniel were wondering why she was a no-show at the Hoops for Hope charity basketball game held last November 14, Kathryn Bernardo said she was definitely there in spirit cheering for Daniel Padilla. “Sorry kasi parang may conflict with my other endorsement ata tapos may pictorial din ako nun so hindi ko sure kung makakaabot. Gusto ko talaga manuod pero nag-u-update na lang ako sa Twitter nun. Pero magkausap naman kami. Tumawag siya after tapos mukhang nag-enjoy i event,” she shared during her Blogger's Day with Juicy Cologne event held last November 18 at Stacy's.

During the blogcon, Kathryn showed off her new hairstyle, presumably for her upcoming role in the Kapamilya remake of the hit teleserye Pangako Sa 'Yo. But the Kath refused to confirm any details about the soap just yet. “Actually kaya ako na-late kasi ngayon lang yung schedule ko para ma-darken na yung hair. Basta may i-shu-shoot na kami at saka kailangan na daw ipabalik kaya ganun,” she said.

Apart from acting, Kath is also getting busy with her singing career, having revived Sharon Cuneta's original ‘80s hit “Mr. DJ.” Kath said it is no coincidence she chose a song with her love team partner's name in it. “Isa na siguro yun atsaka madami rin akong rinevive na songs. Alam naman natin na super hit yung ‘Mr. DJ’ dati so sana magustuhan nila yun,” she added.

The 18-year-old actress-singer said she is now busy finishing her album and shooting music videos. “Nag-shoot na ako ng dalawang music video, yung isa yung ‘Mr. DJ’ at ‘You Don't Know Me’ tapos this week mag-shu-shoot na rin kami for the cover. Choice ng management yung songs pero tinatanong din naman nila ako and for this album kasi ipinagtiwala ko muna sa kanila yung lahat. Napakasaya ko at maraming salamat sa mga taong binigyan nila ng oras panuorin yung ilang minutes na yun and sana after nila manuod natuwa sana sila. Masaya ako na nag-e-explore ako ng ibang craft ko naman siguro. Gusto ko rin naman maging open sa iba para hindi lang arte, tapos nag-aaral din ako mag-dance, ganyan, para mas flexible,” she said.

As a singer, Kath said she is still building up her confidence and preparing as much as she can for upcoming performances. “Of course voice lessons and nag-pa-practice ako kung saan saan (laughs) tapos kailangan maging confident ka sa sarili mo para mas magawa mo yung pagkanta. Basta excited ako na mapanuod nila yung totoong music video and na-excite ako na mapakinggan nila kasi super saya ako nung ginawa ko yun tapos yung album super hands-on ako dun. Talagang yung mga ideas ko sinasabi ko sa kanila, very personalized so sana ma-enjoy nila kasi it's something new pag makita nila. Sa concert naman if ever magkaroon hindi ko alam. Tingnan natin kung gusto nila (laughs),” she said.

Unlike DJ who has already done two successful concerts, the Juicy Cologne endorser said she is not thinking too far ahead. The “Mr. DJ” singer says she is happy that her love team partner is always beside her. “Eh chill lang naman siya na tao, parang basta natutuwa naman siya sa akin ngayon. Very supportive naman siya sa akin now. Proud naman siya sa akin,” she admitted. After an alleged audio scandal hit DJ two months ago, Kath said their partnership is stronger than ever. “Kasi siguro kaya siya best guy ever kasi natutunan niyang tanggapin yung mali niya and natuto siya sa nangyari and nag-grow siya dun and in-accept niya na mali siya. Yun naman eh, na-humble niya yung pagkalalake niya. Yun naman yung important,” she explained.

After reuniting with Khalil Ramos in Wansapanataym, Kath said DJ had no reason to be jealous. “Hindi, kaibigan namin si Khalil eh, parang tropa tropa kami. Okay naman kasi si Khalil naman naging ka-love team ko rin siya sa She's Dating The Gangster tapos sa Princess and I andun rin siya. So parang barkada na talaga na kapatid kapag sa set and super dali naman niyang katrabaho. Yung mga fans din naman na-miss din yung kami ni Khalil, yung parang best friends, ganyan,” she admitted.

At this point in her career, Kath said she understands her fans’ sentiments whenever she is paired with other guys. “Siyempre hindi mo rin sila masisisi ‘pag nasasanay sila dun kung sino yung napapnuod mo parati. Kami pa rin naman ni DJ sa ibang projects for Wansapanataym muna hindi. Mapapanuod din naman nila kami so huwag silang mag-alala. But the good thing sa mga Kathniels sinusuportahan kami as a love team, sinusuportahan din kami as individuals,” she said.
