"I'm having so much fun."
This was the reaction of six-year-old Zia Dantes when asked about her newest TV commercial with her daddy Dingdong Dantes.
The father-and-daughter tandem was introduced earlier, November 26, as the newest celebrity endorser of e-commerce company Shopee for its Christmas campaign.
According to Dingdong, Zia was very happy when she found out about her newest endorsement.
He shared "Si Zia kasi sobrang fan siya ng music ng Shopee. In fact, parati niyang sinasabi 'yon every day, like yung 'Salamat, Shopee,' kasi palagi niyang napapanood 'yung kay Jackie Chan na commercial.
"Then, noong nalaman nga namin that magiging part kami ng Shopee fam, sobrang excited ako for her because alam kong sobrang matutuwa siya ang sobrang magiging excited. That's why we first kept it as a secret and then, slowly ni-reveal namin sa kanya. Noong binulong ko sa kanya 'yung good news, talagang nanlaki yung mata niya.
"Talagang we were absolutely delighted when we heard the news since, of course, we were given the chance to be part of this amazing company that Filipinos love and that has been part of their daily lives."
As the newest endorser, Dingdong had the chance to do a TV commercial with Zia, singing the new jingle of the brand.
He recalled, "Zia and I were really excited about doing the TVC kasi bonding namin 'yung kumanta-kanta, doing role-playing. Kapag ganung klaseng mga laro, ako ang kalaro niya, e. We definitely had a great time during the shoot together.
"We hope that Filipinos can feel the Christmas spirit, even more, when they see it."
Dingdong and Zia are also expected to appear on the 12.12 Christmas TV Special on GMA Network on December 12.
