‘Parang ang feeling ko, they expect too much. — Xian Lim’
New Kapuso actor Xian Lim admits to feeling nervous, especially as he is being considered as the leading man to watch on GMA.
“Parang ang feeling ko, they expect too much. Na sana we are on the same page. Gusto ko rin ma-impress sila sa akin,” he said.
So far, Xian has finished his first Kapuso series, “False Positive,” with Glaiza de Castro. He is currently in the Middle East to perform at the Dubai Expo with Jessica Villarubin and Julie Ann San Jose.
“Obviously nagustuhan mostly of the Filipino audience in Dubai,” said a kibitzer. “Matagal tagal na raw nang huli silang makapanood ng Pilipinong Pilipinong na palabas.”
No wonder the audience stayed to the very end, the kibitzer added.

Bayani Agbayani, given the chance, would want to become a director and writer na rin.
The comedian wants to do a sitcom featuring two of his closest friends, Aga Muhlach and Randy Santiago.
The two, he knows, will not say no to him. However, Aga and Randy are both busy. Aga is in a reality singing competition, and may soon start a series. Randy also has a show on TV5 and he still gets assignments as a singer and host.
Bayani was first a writer before he appeared in shows as an extra. He is a graduate of Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication in Broadcasting. He first volunteered to write a dialog for a sitcom when the writer assigned to do it had to do an errand for his wife. He also helped direct the show.
