Tween Queen Barbie Forteza has come a long way since starring in a milk brand commercial as the girl who got soaked and made friends under the rain. Her short but memorable stint in the TVC caught the attention of film producers, who eventually, chose her to play the lead in the indie film Puntod. Her portrayal as a deaf-mute earned Barbie her first acting award from the PMPC as Best New Female Star of the Year. Among her notable projects in GMA-7 are Stairway to Heaven, First Time, and Pilyang Kerubin, Barbie's biggest break to date. Barbie will soon star in another episode for Dear Friend together with Joshua Dionisio and Jhake Vargas.
Tween King Joshua Dionisio:))
Award-winning young actor Joshua Dionisio first captured the hearts of Kapuso viewers with his portrayal as the young Cholo in the Pinoy adaptation of the Koreanovela Stairway to Heaven opposite Barbie Forteza. He went on to star in an episode for Dear Friend, My Christmas List with Barbie and Jhake Vargas before finally landing a role as Lukas Ynfante in First Time. His love team with Barbie became such a huge hit that GMA-7 decided to cast them again in another primetime soap, the recently-concluded Pilyang Kerubin. Joshua is currently busy with acting workshops in preparation for his upcoming projects in the Kapuso Network.
Tween Prince Jhake Vargas
Jhake Vargas first gained popularity when he played the role of the young Tristan in Stairway to Heaven. Before that, the 18-year-old singer-actor had already appeared in the Kapuso shows Walang Tulugan with The Master Showman, Joaquin Bordado, Gagambino, and Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin? He was later cast as Baste Luna in First Time, a role that eventually earned Jhake his heartthrob stature. He was also featured in Patient X and Litsonero last 2009, and is now part of Party Pilipinas and Ilumina.
Tween Princess Bea Binene
Bea Binene first tested showbiz waters when she joined StarStruck Kids in 2004 where she ended up as a finalist. She joined Bahay Mo Ba 'To, which ran from 2004 to 2007, and Sinenovela Presents Kaputol ng Isang Awit in 2008. A certified homegrown Kapuso, Bea also dabbled in hosting via Lovely Day before starring in an episode for Dear Friend with Barbie, Joshua and Jhake. She later assumed the role of the mean "Queen Bee" Natalie Dimaculangan in First Time and is currently seen in Ilumina and Party Pilipinas. A junior ambassador of the Haribon Foundation, Bea recently added another feather to her cap after winning a bronze medal in the 2010 National Wushu Competition.
Olongapo boy Kristoffer Martin has appeared as the young Johnny in the GMA adaptation of the Koreanovela hit drama Endless Love, where he was paired with Kathryn Bernardo. He enjoys singing, dancing, and acting.
