PRESS STATEMENT FROM GMA-7:


"The outrageously funny TV moments in GMA's romantic-comedy series, I ♥ You Pare, gets more exciting and addictive as the main stars embrace a string of unexpected romances and challenges on their personal lives and love lives.

"Asia's Songbird Regine Velasquez-Alcasid and primetime leading man Dingdong Dantes first onscreen tandem is a big revelation as both stars underwent queer makeovers not only with their looks but also with their respective characters which exceeded everyone's expectations.

"This week, Tonette (Regine) returns to Club Love after realizing her hasty decision of running away from Kenneth's (Dingdong) ill-treatment towards her. She delivers her comeback performance through a K-Pop inspired production number for the foreign visitors of the club.

"But not everyone is pleased with her comeback. Her well-applauded performance fuels the anger of Vodka (Paolo Ballesteros) and The Veklas. The group once again conspires to make her life a living hell. Will the scheming drag queens succeed in their plans to expel Tonette in Club Love?    

"Meanwhile, Tonette gets the surprise of her life when she receives a breakfast in bed and a congratulatory note from Kenneth. Will this move patch up the differences between the unlikely lovers?

"Completing the cast of I ♥ You Pare are Tirso Cruz III, Ian Veneracion, Mark Abaya, Ehra Madrigal, Celia Rodriguez, Luane Dy, Kevin Santos, Antonio Aquitania, Carlo Gonzales, Peter Serrano, Butz Aquino, Luz Valdez, Via Antonio, Joey Paras, Joel Saracho and Boy Alano together with directors Andoy Ranay and Bb. Joyce Bernal.

"I ♥ You Pare airs weeknights right after Dwarfina on GMA Telebabad."
