Isa na namang historic event ang naganap kamakailan sa iGMA.tv and in no small part sa inyo—our online community. As promised, the Live Chat last February 19 was a complete success, and it was made more so by a number of pleasant surprises. Text by Erick Mataverde. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio.
Nang aming i-schedule ang Live Chat ni Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, iGMA.tv knew that this would be an event that most of the fans and supporters have been waiting for. Pero, kami pa rin ay natuwa nang makita namin ang reception ng mga online fans and supporters ng dalawang hottest na Kapuso artists na ito ay stronger than ever pa rin.
Foremost, this Live Chat broke all records set by previous chats for the most number of page views and questions posted by the chatters, even surpassing this very same pair's last live chat last August 2007. And this was one thing that both Marian and Dingdong were so glad to learn. "Happy at nakakataba ng puso 'yung mga sinasabi nila," ang reaction ni Marian ng balitaan sila about their record-breaking chat in an interview afterwards. Si Dingdong naman ay mas lalong natuwa this time around: "Well, masaya 'yung game, masaya 'yung game! At least alam ko na hindi pa pala niya alam ang lahat. Masaya dahil at least na nakikita at live eh, 'yun talaga ang gusto ng [fans] at 'yun ang hindi dapat baguhin [sa chat]." Dingdong was referring to the game mid-chat dubbed "Steal or Reveal," where they had to confirm some trivia tungkol sa kanilang ka-love team and if they were true or not; if mistaken, they face the consequence of "stealing" a kiss on a randomly determined part of their partner's body. And what transpired was one kilig moment after another, eventually leading to Marian kissing Dingdong on the lips and Dingdong kissing Marian on the neck, which made their fans so happy as they witnessed everything in real time. Siyempre, what made this all the more significant was this couple's appreciation of the questions asked during the chat.
Kay Dingdong, tuwang-tuwa siya at nalaman din niya ang feedback ng online community sa Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang: "Actually, iba't-ibang tao ang nagtatanong, 'yung mostly nagko-comment sila na nae-enjoy daw nila 'yung bagong show, 'yung iba mas gusto nila 'yung dati, karamihan mas gusto 'yung ngayon. So kanya-kanyang views talaga [na] nakikita naming lahat ngayon dito. Nagko-congratulate sila at nagpapasalamat kami sa kanila through the chat. "Siyempre masaya, dahil kapag nakakatanggap kami ng message na alam namin na gusto kami ng certain na tao 'yun 'di ba? So siyempre ako, I also show appreciation. Kung gusto niya kami, eh nagpapasalamat [din] ako sa kanila [at] hindi namin sila bibiguin." Banggit naman ni Marian, "'Yung sa akin more on sa Babae, eh. Na natutuwa daw sila sa istorya na nakakakilig daw tapos unti-unti nilang nagugustuhan 'yung story, 'yung mga twists. Tsaka tungkol kay Dingdong, kamusta na si Dingdong, ganyan si Dingdong, Dingdong, Dingdong 'tsaka Tadyang, o 'di ba? Silang dalawa lang! (laughs)
"Sa lahat sa nag-chat, halos lahat sila gusto nila si Proserfina. May mga iba lang siguro na hindi lang maintindihan si Proserfina. Kaya ngayon nitong mga ipapa-labas namin ngayon eh mga flashback tungkol kay Porserfina na mas maiintidihan nila kung bakit nagka-ganun siya, kung bakit ganito 'yung attitude niya so mas maiintidihan nila 'yung character ni Prosefina at mamahalin nila si Proserfina." Sa pagtatapos, binati ni Dingdong ang lahat ng chatters at pinaalam niya na sana nasagot niya lahat ng questions ng mga sumali online: "Kulang ang isang araw at dalawang oras na ma-accommodate namin kayong lahat. Sana nga puede. Pero thank you, thank you, at magkita-kita tayo ulit." Maging updated sa mga episode ng Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang straight from Dingdong and Marian themselves!
