VP/Spotlight | PrYce: Sparkle Kilig Series Stars
February might have passed and the breeze may be waning, but the kilig will continue to linger in our hearts. This year, Sparkle GMA presents Princess Aliyah and Bryce Eusebio as one of their newest love teams. Alongside AshCo, these fresh love teams will soon enchant viewers with their charms and chemistry. Their addition to Sparkle GMA’s love team lineup heralds a new chapter of love and romance in Philippine television.
Brewing the perfect chemistry
Grateful for the opportunity offered to them, PrYce expressed their enthusiasm for their pair-up, particularly as one of the pioneering actors for Sparkle GMA Artist Center’s “TikTok Kilig Series” project. Despite the added pressure that comes with being part of a love team, PrYce eagerly embraces the challenge—committed to providing Filipinos with what they can offer as actors.
“I can’t deny that it’s not easy growing up in the industry, but for me it’s just a matter of appreciating your blessings and the people who support you. I’ve been paired with different on-screen partners before which made me learn a lot of things especially in the topic of “loveteams.” I always push myself and make sure I learn in every step I take in my career to be at my very best not only as an artist but also as a person.”
Bryce’s perspective on love team dynamics
Prior to their pairing, Princess and Bryce were both part of Sparkle Teens, where they built the foundation of their friendship with one another. Through workshops, they fostered a sense of comfort and bonded as co-workers. Moreover, they ensure professionalism and mutual support for each other, which transcends well to their audience. With their sweet presence and endearing chemistry, audiences can expect to be swept away by their on-screen magic.
“Very exciting, at the same time, pressured kasi I always wondered what it feels like to be in a love team and growing up ang dami ko din nilolook up na mga loveteams—mahilig po kasi ako sa mga romcoms—kaya hindi ako makapaniwala na isa na po ako sa mga magpapakilig ngayon, so it is definitely fun but challenging.”
Princess’s reflections on being in a loveteam
Life out of the limelight
Beyond the glitz and glamour—when acting cuts—PrYce remains dedicated to their education. Since school and showbiz are entirely different worlds, juggling their roles as actors and as students is tough. Given that situation, they strive to maintain balance between their academic pursuits and career commitments.
“I’m currently studying Grade 12. It isn’t easy but yeah, I just try to balance my time like setting priorities and scheduling my time for workloads.”
Bryce on balancing life and work demands
“Aside from acting, I usually focus sa studies ko po, whenever I have free time I always make time to accomplish everything that I need to do for school. And about balancing my time naman po, I manage my time and priorities and separate work from personal stuff.”
Princess on managing her time as a student and an actress
In their leisure time, they seize every moment to take care of themselves, which will also help them flourish in their endeavors. Bryce shared that he keeps himself physically active by spending his time running and lifting weights. On the flip side, Princess uses her free time to catch up with family and friends or do activities that will boost her creativity, such as playing instruments, reading, and painting.
Harnessing values and personality
In an industry where relentless scrutiny breeds, upholding your authenticity amidst public judgment is crucial. Celebrities do their utmost to set a positive example for their audience. At the same time, they should keep in mind of their genuineness—protecting themselves from unwarranted influence of public opinion.
For Princess, one must have kindness, discipline, respect, and honesty in order to succeed in their dreams. Bryce reiterated the value of staying true to yourself and doing everything with love.
While Princess noted that one piece of advice she follows is “Never stop learning and growing.” Byrce, on the other hand, shared a quote from one of his acting mentors that struck him: “The one thing you can do to learn is to ask questions.”
As they embark on this journey as a duo, PrYce holds aspirations for portraying superheroes. Princess particularly expressed her interest to be a part of the Encantandia universe. Furthermore, they also voiced their desire to work with veteran actors such as Christopher de Leon, Vilma Santos, Marian Rivera, and Dingdong Dantes. At the moment, fans can catch PrYce in GMA’s Sparkle TikTok Kilig Series and an upcoming project titled “Forever Young.”
With their innocence and charisma, these new love teams are set to redefine romance and entertainment in the Philippines. Promising to grace our television screens with unforgettable moments and timeless stories that will resonate long after the love month has passed.
