If you&#x27;re feeling the sepanx—especially for Iris Buenavidez, the character we all loved to hate during the show’s successful run—don’t worry, Janine Gutierrez, who played Iris, has the perfect antidote. She’s dropped exclusive behind-the-scenes moments from their final promo activities for the series. Trust us, you don’t want to miss this—unless you’re okay with depriving yourself of some sweet EchoNine moments. And honestly, why would you?</p><p>In her latest vlog, Janine gives fans a peek behind the scenes of the “<a href="http://abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/lavenderfields" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u>Lavender Fields</u></strong></a>” stars&#x27; final walk and performances on “<a href="http://abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/asap"><strong><u>ASAP</u></strong></a>.” She was joined by <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/2025/1/12/powerhouse-cast-of-lavender-fields-invade-the-asap-stage-1408" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u>Jodi Sta. Maria, Jericho Rosales, and Jolina Magdangal</u></strong></a> for that episode. Backstage, you can see them sharing warm camaraderie, heartfelt hugs, and playful moments with the production staff, which only proves the closeness they’ve built on set.</p><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1263" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2eIjHKQLY18" title="Lavender Fields Farewell + Q&amp;A | Janine Gutierrez" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><p>Fans who flocked to the studio showed their unwavering support for the series. Everyone was hyped, especially when Janine and Jericho shared a feel-good duet that sent all EchoNine shippers into full kilig mode. After their production number, EchoNine snapped some selfies with fans and soaked up the love before heading to the “iWant ASAP” studio.</p><p>After wrapping up at “iWant ASAP,” the cast moved to another studio inside ABS-CBN for the media junket. But of course, Jericho and Janine couldn’t resist some backstage kulitan before the event started. He kept cracking jokes and making her laugh while she was getting her hair and makeup touched up. He even teased her about a small rip in her pants, which Janine explained was from one of Iris’ fight scenes. What we noticed, though, was how comfortable these two are with each other now!</p><p>The kilig even soared higher when Janine dared &#x27;Echo&#x27; to a Q&amp;A. When asked about their favorite scene together, Jericho shared that he liked the romantic ones, like when Tyrone (his character) carried Iris up the stairs. &quot;Kinilig ako do’n, eh,&quot; he admitted. He also talked about that intense scene in Antipolo where Iris was supposed to shoot Tyrone after all his betrayal, but they ended up reconciling—proof of Iris’ marupok side. And, of course, he mentioned the scene where Iris wanted to strangle her younger sister Heather (Analain Salvador), calling it Janine&#x27;s &quot;peak teleserye moment.</p><div><br/></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABOFKrYeIPe00-RK&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABO4mXMLyqmR4lTv&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABPfUwcXj-3U4xzk&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><p>When asked if he had any bloopers while filming, Jericho jokingly said, &quot;Wala kasi perfect ako.&quot; Haha! Watch how Janine reacted, and you&#x27;ll see she&#x27;s clearly learned how to vibe with Jericho&#x27;s humor. At one point, she joked about giving Jericho a rating of 5 out of 10 as a co-star, to which Jericho fired back, saying it felt like Iris was ‘possessing’ her again. Their banter was basically a mini rom-com right there in the studio!</p><p>Janine also brought out her hilarious side when answering some questions from her followers. One fan asked where Iris got her bodyguards, considering they’re always so ‘palpak,’ to which Janine responded in jest, “Dapat talaga ma-fire na lahat ng bodyguards na ’yun kasi wala silang kwenta para kay Iris!” LOL!</p><p>Another follower asked why Iris kept running after Tyrone, even when he kept pushing her away. While she laughed at the question, Janine got a bit serious and gave a reality check, “Sana take this as a lesson from Iris na kung ayaw sa inyo ng taong minamahal n’yo, baka dapat huwag n’yo nang ipilit kasi magkakasakitan lang talaga kayo.”</p><p>Here’s another fun tidbit—remember all those scenes of Iris sipping wine? Janine revealed it was actually fake wine! She admitted she wasn’t a fan of those scenes because they used cranberry juice as a stand-in, and it was so sweet that her throat would hurt after filming.</p><div><br/></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABR2Xei_rMKmHUlW&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABSLJDuJ1F4IjpNx&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><p>And when asked who gave stronger slaps between Jodi and Jolina during their confrontation scenes, Janine said neither. Turns out, both were so nice to her and made sure she wasn’t hurt.  </p><p>Janine couldn’t stop gushing about how genuinely nice Jolina and Jodi were. In fact, she shared that Jolina would always bring food for everyone on set, which Jolina said was a must because Janine was a big eater who loves having rice as her midnight snack! Their friendship has grown so real that <a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/lavenderfields/articles-news/jolinas-heart-is-full-watching-daughter-vika-bond-with-janine-on-the-lavender-fields-set-23481" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u>Janine even got close to Jolina’s daughter, Vika, who frequently visited the set</u></strong></a>. According to Jolina, Vika once drew a picture of her “closest friends” and included Janine in the sketch. The little girl would even ask for her whenever she wasn’t around. Aww.</p><p>Speaking of adorable little girls, they worked with Janell Gonzaga, who played Camilla, the child everyone was fighting over in the teleserye. Netizens would often joke, “How to be Camilla na pinag-aagawan?” Rolling with the humor, Jolina chimed in, saying she wouldn’t know what it feels like to be fought over since her dad was pretty strict. “Ano kaya feeling ng pinag-aagawan? Siguro nakakalito. Ayoko ng ganu’n, baka ma-highblood ako, eh,” she joked.</p><p>The “<a href="http://abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/lavenderfields" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u>Lavender Fields</u></strong></a>” cast is such a vibe. Admit it—you’re already missing them!</p>
