FOREVER is not enough....

If ABS can't give us forever, then please give us 10 more years of Kimerald, with no pause in between. That's how much I love them.

It's forever for me. That's how I am with my other favorites & that's the effect Kimerald have for me too. But they have to be together.

Contrary to what others say, fans of the loveteam like me don't meddle with their personal lives. As long as they are together, it's mighty find with me. Some tend to forget that what Kim & Gerald do together is work...not just the separate projects. In this alone, who meddled with the personal life everytime they give the reason 'it's work & they need to save up for their future'?

Im all for Kim & Gerald earning big...that's one of the effect they will get as Kimerald. Working as Kimerald is very lucrative. Why would I want them to settle for something that would give them MODERATE or below par success like what they will have with those solo/separate projects when as Kimerald they always & have never failed to be a huge success?

Why would I exchange something that gives me so much pleasure (them being Kimerald) with something that only gives me distaste like those solo/separate projects?

Im amazed that some fans still don't see the improvement, the growth of the Kimerald. Even the people around them who supposedly knows them personally seems to find Kim & Gerald's acting lacking. But the funny thing is how come they are made to work with newbies & co actors that are below par? The question then would become 'who's growth & who's benefit'? Certainly not Kim & Gerald's, nah ah. Are those workshops useless? How about the innate talent of Kim & Gerald? I would be more proud of their success if they can do it on their own than if people gives the credit to other actors when they will say that Kim & Gerald learned from them. The TD cast (except for one) was more than enough for Kim & Gerald picking up acting skills...more than enough for anybody.

Bottom line is I want only Kimerald. As simple as that. Don't give me the BS that as long as they are okay in their personal life then it's fine. No, that is not my argument although the effect is the same with what Im asking. Kim & Gerald doing projects together means more time together both professionally & personally. Why not Kill two birds with one stone? Preserving the loveteam is protecting the personal relationship.

Since some are so concerned with 'work', then let me illustrate the effect of these solo projects. Example, let's say in the Tacloban show, Kim is really supposedly in it but will be pulled out because she will be taping the separate project Your Song. Let's just say she will be earning P500k for this Your Song & her talent fee for the mallshow is P100k. One might say she earned big in YS but wait. The difference may be P400k but these will be the effect.

1. Fans will be dismayed & will cease to be Kim's fan (or Kimerald's) because of the separate project.

2. The fans that expect Kim to be in Tacloban will also be dismayed...Kim's reputation will be affected & we can expect loss of some fans.

3. With the fan loss, advertisers will question Kim & Kimerald's selling power. Fewer fans will mean fewer patronage of the products the stars endorses.

4. Kim & Gerald will be given separate projects, yes but for how long? Remember, they don't have a 'BACKER'. And these solo projects will be flops...maybe not at first but with less & less supporters...well, since showbiz is business...one flop after another will mean fewer & fewer projects until none at all.

The reverse will happen if Kim & Gerald remains the Kimerald plus their longevity in the business will be assured. Being the Kimerald loveteam, Kim will recover the P400k difference & earn so much more. So what's 1 'work' when it will mean so much loss?

Local showbiz is essentially Loveteam oriented. Look how many stars who were huge successes while being in a loveteam but are now gone when they thought they can do it alone? And look at the stars who don't have permanent ka-loveteam? They are still down there...pledging & trying to stay afloat. Even present big stars experiences flops in recent years coz fans prefer them in a loveteam than solo or to having different partners. Do you want that to happen to Kim & Gerald? What will happen then to the 'it's work & for their future' argument?

so, what will it be, solo projects/work or them staying as Kimerald?

For Kim & Gerald's success, keeping their personal relationship intact, garnering more Kimerald followers, longevity in showbiz, more & huge earning potentials for their future, growth & more projects, I say...

KIMERALD TOGETHER FOR 10 MORE YEARS....if you cant give me forever!

I want 10 more years of Kimerald

Take a good, hard look at the picture above---that may be the last we would see of Kimerald together in a project UNLESS we say

NO to solo/separate Kimerald projects.

I have never and will never watch the separate projects. There is no pleasure for me to be derived from them. Besides, those separate projects are NOT & can never be called Kimerald projects. I only support Kimerald projects. PERIOD.

Sure, both promoted Kim's MMK. How can't they, their hands are tied. Kim naturally would coz she's in it and Gerald have to to avoid being criticized by the hardcore Kim fans but anti-Gerald (Yes, they do exist...it's not a perfect world after all).

But Kim & Gerald are silently crying for help from us, the solid supporters of the loveteam. They look upon us to help them.

I hope the network really values us fans & I pray they dont forget that the fans are also the consumers of the products the advertisers sells.

I WANT KIMERALD ONLY...

ADVERTISERS, take notice: My patronage is for Kimerald ONLY.

Kimerald only...now & forever

Its only work...yeah, I know but this excuse gets to be irritating each time this is offered. Well, DUH, aren't Kim & Gerald in the business to work? Is what they are doing right now doesn't pay them?

Just because it's "work" doesn't mean Kim or Gerald have to grab it blindly. They have to examine each project & weight it whether it can help their career or damage it. Let me ask, does Kim & Gerald are in such dire straights that they need to get as much work as they can no matter if its detrimental to their careers or not?

Im not an expert but I can do estimation just like the next person. But first, let's get this fact across clearly...it's being in the Kimerald loveteam that makes Kim & Gerald earn MORE than the average artists. The loveteam brings them more money than their solo efforts. They get a soap each year, plentiful projects & numerous endorsements BECAUSE management & advertisers KNOW that whatever projects & endorsements the Kimerald do will garner audiences & customers. That is the Kimerald's edge. And what is the selling factor? It's the Kimerald LOVETEAM.

Now, let's do some comparisons & analysis...if example a solo project pays them, say, 200 thousand grand. This is for just 1 show that is shown in 1 day. Or a 2 month period show but still pays the same amount.

Compare it to a Kimerald project like a teleserye which pays Kim & Gerald 50 thousand grand per shooting day. Multiply that by 3 shooting days per week and by 4 a months duration, that's more than 2 million. It doesn't stop there. What if the show gets extended for say even for another 2 months? That's a LOT of money.

We go to the juicy part...that 1 solo project MAY pay them big but the damage that it will cause to their loveteam is irreparable & fatal. And it will cause losses to Kim & Gerald big time. How? The solid Kimeralds which comprises the majority of their fan base will loose heart & abandon the loveteam...as soon as the Kimerald is no more. This spells disaster cause the audience who watches their projects & the consumers who buys the products they endorses will be considerably lessened. Imagine the losses those solo projects brings to the Kimerald, both monetary & fan support.

That one solo project of Kim or Gerald will only get the support of a few because it's the loveteam that the Solid Kimeralds love & they will never support whoever is their partner in the project because they are rivals of Kim or Gerald & the Kimerald loveteam. LOSS OF FAN SUPPORT...the most dreaded by all stars to happen. So, those solo projects not only helps damage their careers but also their income. Also, masochists we are not. It hurts the loveteam fans too much to watch them with other partners.

If a solo project with other pair rates or is successful in the box office, management will conclude that the public likes this new partnership even though in reality, the fans supported the solo projects NOT because they support the new pairing but because they pity Kim or Gerald and its only work that brings the income we supposed they needed badly. You cannot stress the point otherwise each time this argument is offered especially if this gets deliberately ignored. By then it will be too late coz the hardcore fans of the loveteam is gone.

I know rivals will help make a solo project of Kim or Gerald rate high because it would prompt the management to separate the Kimerald & pair them with others. It's not a teleserye so what's one show anyway when it will result to the separation of the Kimerald? They will think that it generated support when in reality they were fooled into thinking it so that the Kimerald will be out of the way to others stars road to fame. But when management call out to the "supporters" who made their solo projects rate high to support again the projects of the new pairing, they will be answered by SILENCE. NO ONE is there because the ratings were a trick by the enemy camp.

With the sheer number of loveteam fans gone, the few who are left will not be able to fill the void. The result would be fewer demand for Kimerald that could spell less & less projects & less & less advertisers getting them to endorse products. Fewer people would want to see them NOT together so fewer producers will get them for shows. The more fans you have, the more WORK you will get because fans are the primary consumers. So in this case, its Kim & Gerald who are the biggest losers & the management the bigger fools for falling into the illusion the ratings reflected. NAISAHAN.

The fans as consumers is the bread & butter of ANY business, especially the entertainment industry. Stars come & go, yes but so does networks if they dont have stars that brings in the fans. For who does SUSTAIN the networks but their audiences.

So, go ahead, support the SOLO projects of Kim & Gerald...watch it & make the ratings go high. For instead of helping Kim & Gerald, you are actually contributing to the damage it will cause to their careers.

I know I have not & will never support/watch any of the solo projects Kim & Gerald have done or, God forbid, do in the future because I love them too much to be a hand to the destruction of their careers.

It's being the Kimerald which made me love Kim & Gerald, its being Kimerald that made them the HUGE success they are now & its being the Kimerald that made them big earners in the local showbiz industry.

And I wont dirty my hands by being a factor in the destruction of it all. I could never do that to Kim & Gerald. I'd rather sacrifice all those solo projects coz its the Kimerald that matters more.
