| | Paul Salas admits to having a crush on Julia Barretto Author: Rachelle Siazon Former Kung Fu Kids star Paul Salas happily shares with ABS-CBN.com that his family has just transferred to their new home where he and his 7-year-old brother would have their separate bedrooms for the very first time. "Isa po talaga yun sa mga winiwish ko nung birthday nung April 16. Niregaluhan ako ng parents ko ng bike, bala ng PS2 na pinapabili ko na original, at saka yung paglipat namin ng bahay. Excited na talaga ako'ng pagandahin yung room ko. Bibili kami ng bagong bed, lamp shade, ganun. White ang gusto kong color ng room ko." One look at this good-looking 11-year-old kid will tell you that he already has the makings of a future matinee idol. Add to his growing dramatic prowess, it's not surprising that he gets to play younger versions of Luis Manzano in Dyosa, Ryan Agoncillo in Pieta, and Jason Abalos in Kambal Sa Uma among others. "Sa mga nagawa kong TV projects, pinakana-enjoy ko yung sa Pieta kasi askyon aksyon dun, nagigising ka, nae-excite ka. Pero gusto ko rin pong matuto ng drama para all-around! Ngayon po may naka-line up sa akin, young Sid Lucero po sa [Dahil May Isang Ikaw]. Tapos nandun din ako sa Habang May Buhay," he reveals. Even a grown-up wouldn't feel bored around Paul as he is very talkative to the point that he openly admits how attracted he is towards fellow child star Julia Barretto, who's last seen in Kokey last year and is visible in a popular shampoo commercial these days. "Nakilala ko siya sa Kung Fu Kids at Palos. Gusto ko siya kasi maganda siya at saka simple. Sana nga makatrabaho ko siya ulit it." Admittedly indifferent towards his flock of admirers in Goin' Bulilit, Paul claimed that he would only be interested if it's Julia showing him affection. "Naasar ako, kasi dati nung nagpunta yung Kung Fu Kids sa ABS, biglang may nagsigawan [nung nakita ako]. Akala ko sunog yun pala mga taga-Goin'. Kung si Julia okay lang," he stressed. Definitely not a little boy anymore, Paul hopes to grow taller so that he could also pursue his dream to become a basketball varsity player someday. "Ngayon po, nagaaral po ako sa Starland International School dito sa Quezon City. Pero gusto nga po namin ni Mama pumasok ako sa Ateneo kasi sabi ni Ninong (Dingdong Dantes),'Ako hindi marunong mag-basketaball, eh ikaw marunong.' Mag-train daw po ako. Pero siyempre hindi ko naman pinapabayaan ang studies kasi kung pinabayaan ko yun magagalit sina Mama. Pinakamababa kong grade ngayon 86," he proudly shared. Source: ABS-CBN Interactive |
