TOUCHED na touched si Charlene Gonzales sa gesture ni Coco Martin for husband Aga Muhlach when Coco joined Aga in two of his campaign sorties in Camarines Sur last Friday.
As everyone in showbiz know by now, Aga is running for CamSur congressman in the province’s fourth district.
Isa sa mga tumulong sa kanyang pangangampanya ay si Angel Locsin when she also went to CamSur to join Aga in his campaign sorties.
But as Charlene said: “At least, si Angel ay masasabing malapit na kaibigan ni Aga since they worked together in the movie, In the Name of Love.
“They both won for themselves pa nga the best actor and best actress trophies, respectively, for their performances.
“But in the case of Coco, ang alam ko, puwedeng nagkakilala na sila. Pero, ako, I have yet to meet Coco.
“Although,” patuloy pa ni Charlene, “pareho kaming hangang-hanga ni Aga sa kanya sa nangyayari ngayon sa kanyang showbiz career. I think he deserves it.”
It’s Aga’s Ate Arlene (Muhlach), who actually knows Coco since they are together sa katatapos na high-rating series na Walang Hanggan. Instrumental si Arlene kung paano nabanggit ni Coco kay Aga ang hangaring tulungan ito sa kanyang pangangampanya, kahit isang araw lang.
“Narinig daw ni Coco na kausap ni Ate Arlene si Aga. Hiningi raw ni Coco ang pahintulot ni Ate Arlene na makausap si Aga,” kuwento ni Charlene.
“At doon daw binanggit ni Coco, sa kanilang pag-uusap ni Aga, ang intensiyon niyang maikampanya kahit man lang isang araw sa mismong CamSur’s 4th district si Aga.”
In his speech, ayon pa rin kay Charlene, sinabi raw ni Coco na idolo niya si Aga as an actor, as a husband and lalo na bilang tao.
Kaya raw gusto niyang hingin sa mga taga-CamSur na iboto nila si Aga, dahil alam daw niyang sincere itong matulungan ang mga taga-4th district ng probinsiya na iangat ang buhay ng mga kababayan.
From CamSur daw, Coco told Aga, he was going back to Manila dahil the following day (Saturday), may commitment siya sa Palawan.
Coco will next be seen in the series, Juan de la Cruz, where he plays the title role.
Erich Gonzales will play his leading lady.
