Geneva Cruz on her 'Little Princess' co-star Marx Topacio: "Hindi po porke't salbahe sa palabas eh salbahe po sa totoong buhay."

Geneva Cruz took to her Instagram account to honor her Little Princess co-star Marx Topacio. The latter plays Aaron, her character's other man in the afternoon drama.

For the singer-actress, Marx is more than just a co-actor as he is part of her many "firsts" in acting, one of which is her very first bed scene in her three decades in showbiz.

According to Geneva, who plays the condescending Odessa in Little Princess, "one of the most admirable, remarkable men I've ever had the pleasure of working with was @marx_topacio.

"I did my first kissing scene, first bed scene (artistic lang po don't worry), and first criminal scenes with him sa Little Princess..."

Geneva is grateful to Marx for being a true gentleman.

In fact, she reminded the viewers that his role in Little Princess does not reflect his true personality. In the series, Aaron kidnapped the protagonist Princess (Jo Berry), and asked for ransom money of PhP 10 million for the release of the hostage. He set up a scheme to help Odessa get rid of Princess who is the newly appointed CEO and president of MVM owned by Odessa's husband, Marcus (Jestoni Alarcon). Marcus is the biological dad of Princess.

Geneva went on, "napaka gentleman nya at ginabayan nya ako sa lahat.

"Hindi po porke't salbahe sa palabas eh salbahe po sa totoong buhay. Paalala lang po since his character had already kidnapped Princess and medyo kinaiinisan na po si Aaron at Odessa.

"Thanks for being a gentleman and an overall fantastic co-actor and human, Marx! More power to you, braaah!"

In the same post, Geneva and Marx gave their followers a musical treat as they sang Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's "Shallow," a song from the 2018 American musical romantic drama film A Star Is Born.
