With Sarah Geronimo and John Lloyd Cruz's on screen team-up taking the back-seat after two highly successful films, rumor has it that the Pop Star Princess’s next leading man will be Gerald Anderson. But much like the initial negative reactions that surfaced when the Sarah-Lloydie love-team was announced, there are worries that pairing Gerald with Sarah might not be a good idea because Gerald’s current team-up with Kim Chiu is also a team up to beat. Sarah seemed to agree with this idea in an interview with The Buzz yesterday (March 15). “Mahirap ‘yan kasi alam naman natin na ka love-team ni Gerald si Kim,” she voiced out. “Bahala na kung ano ang will ni Lord at ng management kung ano ‘yung ma-settle nila. Hindi ko naman puwedeng sabihing oo naman na agree na agree (dahil) maraming kailangang intindihin pa muna.”

Gerald on the other hand, said that he has yet to hear about the offer. “Siguro chismis-chismis lang ‘yan kasi wala pa namang offer from Star Cinema mismo directly to me. Wala,” he explained.

The actor revealed that he and Kim are slated to film a movie this July, leading him to believe that a team-up with Sarah is not yet possible. But if ever this were true, this will only be temporary and that he will eventually be reunited with Kim.  “Sa amin naman, hindi mawawala ang Kimerald dahil kahit maghiwalay muna kami o maghiwalay kami, sa future magbabalik pa rin kami sa isa’t-isa,” justified the Fil-Am actor. Kim also said that she is okay with the idea but that they have not yet received any announcement about this.

In the POV (Points, Opinion, Violent Reactions) of The Buzz, Kris Aquino revealed that Deo Endrinal, the production unit head of Tayong Dalawa, which stars Kim and Gerald, had a talk with Vic del Rosario, head of Viva Films which in turn manages Sarah’s career. “Kasi feeling naman daw niya, Sarah should be teamed (up) with somebody close to her age bracket. Si Gerald talaga among those age bracket, siya talaga ang nangingibabaw ngayon. So pinag-iisipan ‘yan,” shared Kris. Boy Abunda on the other hand said that he has a split opinion about the matter as far as the fans are concerned. Kim and Gerald have a very huge following but when Sarah was teamed up with John Lloyd in A Very Special Love he also was highly identified with Bea Alonzo, so one can not really tell. “It’s good to be paired with other partners but you have to be careful because you play with the public eh. Take into consideration how fans will take it. You have to manage kung ano ang pananaw ng tagahanga,” Boy commented.
