An appeal...to save the Kimerald loveteam


Alam ko lahat ng Kimeralds mahal na mahal sina Kim at Gerald. Walang mas nakakahigit ang pagmamahal na nadarama kundi pantay-pantay lahat. Sa pananaw lang tayo nagkakalayo, either may nakikita ang iba o di kaya mas intuitive lang ang iba. Yung magbo boycott na tulad ko at yung susuporta pa rin sa individual projects, pareho tayong lahat na kapakanan ng Kimerald ang iniisip.






Sa hindi magbo boycott...alam ko gusto lang ninyong suportahan sina Kim at Gerald, klaro yun.But dahil mas alam ko bakit ako magbo boycott, please allow me to elaborate why. I hope sa mga undecided makatulong & sa mga susuporta pa rin, huwag sana kayo magagalit sa akin. Unawa lang.



Ito kasi ang pananaw ko why magbo boycott ako sa individual projects. They are not all selfish reasons.I dont ask you to agree nor claim that Im right but I humbly ask you to listen.




1. I see these solo projects as a way to condition us in not seeing Kimerald together. That objective is clear as daylight. Prime example...different schedules in ASAP & prods that they are not together.Let me make this clear lang muna, I have nothing against sa mga co stars nila sa projects na ito pwera if may epal.


2. After masanay na tayo, madali na lang ipareha sila sa iba so wala nang hahadlang doon sa pagtatambal kay Gerald kay ____ . Gayon din kay Kim. Alam naman natin na marami talagang gustong makapareha nila si Kim. I still maintain na ang ugat sa lahat nang ito ay si ____.


3. Wala nang hadlang para sumikat ang iba. Gagamitin pa sina Kim at Gerald para sumikat sila.Sa observation ko, walang paki ang management kung uusad ang careers ng Kimerald. Hindi sila favorites so for favors to come their way, the fans have to demand for it for Kimerald. Kailangan pang pilitin ang ABS para i acknowledge ang worth ng Kimerald sa network. Look what happens now, if the network REALLY values the contribution of the Kimerald loveteam, they would preserve the loveteam & milk it until the last drop. Instead, they are frantically downplaying the Kimerald's achievements.If that's their way of treating their fellow Kapamilyas, I dread to think how they treat those who isn't.


4. Those solo projects dont have a big impact on Kim & Gerald's careers. Kim isn't the lead & Gerald have to share the billing with 3 others. Besides, these projects are not 'heavy' enough to merit such importance. Whether the movie will be a box office, the credit will not go to Kim same as if Gerald's episode will rate, I assure you they will not give all the credit to him. Rather they will use it against the Kimerald loveteam. In what way? a.) they will use the success of these solo projects as argument bakit hindi pa itatambal muli ang Kimerald at bakit ipapareha sila sa iba (daming nag uunahan na sa linya as we speak) & b.) ABS will not listen to us anymore. Bakit pa e susunod naman pala tayo sa anong gusto nilang mangyari. Sabi pa naman natin na iba tayo kesa ibang fan clubs.


5. Im afraid for their real life relationship as it is although since the beginning this aspect is the least of my concern kasi I LEARNED to trust their feelings for each other. Sure, I believe they love each other.Very vocal naman sila but you know what, those promotional gimmicks are like ACID. They can corrode even the sturdiest of faith. Time & distance away from each other will be a cause for concern too. Even na magka loveteam nga sila meron pang GAGs na ini impose sa kanila, how much more pag iba na ang kapareha nila? A very good example ay yung article na lumabas. Very early at puspusan na ang ginagawang gimmicks. Tayong mga alam kung anong totoo, walang problema. Paano yung nagbabasa lang ng dyaryo at walang access sa internet? Everybody counts pa naman. Remember too that there are good 'liars' who lords it over in the industry. They can make a lie the utter truth & the truth vitual lies.God save Kim & Gerald from them.


6. Ito ang kinakatakot ko...their earning aspect. Competition in showbiz is very, very stiff.The sad part is the fact that Kim & Gerald are very much on their own. Wala silang malalakas o influential na backer/manager/padrino/padrina. Virtual lambs in a lions' den. But they have their huge & strong following that's why they have gone this far in showbiz despite the above stated fact. Their followers are who the advertisers are courting dahil tayong mga fans ay consumers. That's the MAIN fact bakit inuulan ng endorsements sina Kim at Gerald. That's the reason too bakit maraming advertisers ang naglalagay ng mga ads nila sa Kimerald shows dahil alam nila na malaking market ang makukuha nila sa Kimerald...that's the viewers. Now, ang magiging result ng pagbuwag KAHIT panandalian lang sa Kimerald ay ang pagkawatak-watak ng fans nila o di kaya mababawasan ang mga fans nila. Sa tingin ninyo kukunin pa ng mga advertisers sina Kim at Gerald pag hindi na sila malakas sa tao? Business is business, where the crowd is, you go to sell your products.


So, pag ibo boycott natin ang mga solo projects & DEMAND na huwag ibuwag ang Kimerald at bigyan sila ng projects na sila ang magkapareha, mawawala ang lahat ng threat na ito & balik ang ligaya natin.Sa pag boycott, it will show management na we mean it na Kimerald Lang ang gusto natin. Hopefully they will realize their errors & will leave Kimerald alone & iba na lang ang guluhin.


Sometimes we have to make sacrifices for a good cause. Sacrifice Gerald's _____ & Kim's ______ to convince ABS/SC that we mean it when we say Kimerald Lang. The good cause is the continued success they will achieve with being Kimerald. If the boat is steady, there will be smooth sailing. Babayaran pa din naman sila ng network dahil trabaho yan. Ang dapat nating isipin ay if magiging katulad ba sa dami ang projects nila while being the Kimerald loveteam kesa if solo na sila. Im sure hindi kasi wala nang demands for Kimerald shows.Visibility in showbiz is key to success. People have such short memories kaya nga I prefer tv shows over movies for Kimerald.


For myself I am very vocal in saying boycott to their solo projects but my voice is much louder in emails in asking for 'Kimerald everything'. Boycott BUT couple it in with asking for Kimerald projects.


Please think about it. For the love.
