in local television series
By Ricky T. Gallardo Entertainment Editor
POPULAR Malaysian actress-model Carmen Soo is in town to finalize preparations for an upcoming television project that will also feature local actor Jericho Rosales. The project, a joint venture between Star Cinema and the Malaysian production group Double Vision, will be shot on location for two months in Malaysia and the Philippines starting next month.
Soo doesn抰 look a bit like 29, and she didn抰 have to think twice before divulging her real age to a select group of entertainment editors during a special luncheon tendered for her by ABS-CBN.
It抯 her second visit to Manila. 揑t was all work the first time I came over. For a few days, I was shooting for a fashion spread. I would love to visit your country抯 beautiful attractions and I think that I might be able to do that when work starts for this exciting TV project, |
