SINGER-COMEDIENNE K BROSAS didn't only
win a few thousand pesos when she
recently topped a game portion on
"Eat... Bulaga!" as a celebrity
contestant; she was also able to renew
ties with one of the noontime show's
hosts, Gladys Guevarra.
"It served as an icebreaker because we
hadn't seen each other in a while," K
told Inquirer Entertainment. "People
assume that we're not in good terms just
because they don't see us together.
Whenever there's a bad write-up about
us, she sends me a text message and I
text her back. I admit, though, that
we're not very close."
In 2000, the two comedians started
working together as members of the
comedy-musical group, Gladys and the
Boxers with K, which was renamed K and
the Boxers when Gladys quit in 2003.
Though Gladys cited personal reasons for
her departure, tongues continued to wag
about her supposed rift with K.
After performing together recently in a
production number on "SOP," K said
people seemed to finally believe they're
okay.
"We even get offers to do back-to-back
shows."
K takes the limelight solo in a concert
tonight at the Music Museum but guess
who's giving her a big boost of
confidence? Gladys has bought 10 tickets
and promotes the gig on "Eat... Bulaga!"
according to the star of "K Bro: Alive."
The other members of Boxers--Daniel
Larrazabal, Cris Samonte and Shanna Hife--are
just as supportive, said K. They will
join her in a couple of numbers. Other
guest performers are Rufa Mae Quinto,
Kyla, Erik Santos and Keanna Reeves.
"My goal is to show that I'm first and
foremost a singer who just happens to be
funny, too," K explained. "I'll do a
variety of songs including rock and rap.
I also wrote the script with the help of
director Floy Quintos." |
