Is Motorola Case falling for Matteo Guidicelli?

Matteo Guidicelli rendered two songs at the Belo Medical Group press conference for Kris Aquino held at the Red Restaurant in Makati Shangri-la last September 29. After his performance, Kris complimented the young actor and then revealed that Matteo is courting an ABS-CBN talent. "Si Matteo, ang galing na kumanta ang galing pang manligaw." The story behind this was that Kris noticed the girl's Facebook status in her BlackBerry Messaging referring to a box of Nagaraya crackers she received from Matteo. "Sorry, Matteo it was just an interesting na story because I just had to ask her," Kris commented. When Kris asked the girl about it, she answered, 'Kasi, di ba, tita, nakaka-in love?' Kris chose not to divulge who the girl is and only left a clue that the girl is a Star Magic talent.

ABS-CBN.com quickly approached Matteo to ask him if it was Motorola Case whom he gave one box (as big as a balikbayan box) of Nagaraya. We noticed how he blushed and tried to avoid the question. After much prodding, Matteo then admitted that he did give Motorola a present. "Opo, si Motorola po yung binigyan ko. Kasi paborito niya po yun Nagaraya. Sa isang taping namin ng Wansapanatym Inday sa Balitaw nakita ko siya kumakain nun and sabi niya paborito niya. Bilang thank you po yun sa lahat sa taping namin and mabait siya and supportive siya sa akin." Matteo shared that he personally bought the crackers from the grocery and had it delivered to Motorola's house.

Because of this, we asked him what the real score is between them. He said that he got to know Motorola better when they taped for Inday sa Balitaw and he appreciates her sweet personality, but he neither admitted nor denied that he is courting her. "Magkaibigan lang po kami. We go out pero hindi lang kami dalawa, marami kaming kasama. Before pa, I always thought Motorola was beautiful, pretty and everything and when I worked with her sa Inday sa Balitaw, grabe ibang klaseng babae siya. She is so talented, she is so sweet, sobrang sweet. Motorola is very beautiful."

While he kept from giving details regarding him and Motorola, he just shared the qualities he is looking for a girl. "Sana I can find the girl na supportive, somebody that will help me and somebody who will always be there for me. Sana it will happen. Basta as long as the person likes what I like and is always there for me and will tell me, 'Matteo, pangit yan, maganda yan,’ ganun."

Motorola Case hopes 'Thelma' would win awards

Actress Motorola Case hopes that her latest movie, "Thelma," would win awards this year.

In an interview on "E-Live" on Saturday, Case said they worked very hard on this project.

"Siguro lahat naman di ba, kapag mayroon tayong isang bagay na pinaghihirapan, 'yung gusto mo meron ka namang award na matanggap. 'Yon ata 'yung hinihintay nating lahat di ba, kapag may pinaghirapan ka?" she said.

"So 'yon. Pinagdadasal ko kahit na hindi best actress para sa akin, siguro ma-recognize lang 'yung pelikula na 'Thelma' sa ibang bansa eh sobrang masayang masaya na ako," she added.

"Thelma," a film based on the lives of Filipino runners, was shown in theaters nationwide last September.

'My Binondo Girl'

Meanwhile, Case said she is thrilled to be working with her friend Kim Chiu in the latter's television series, "My Binondo Girl."

"Mas naging strong 'yung friendship namin kasi ako masaya ako na nag-guest ako sa 'Binondo Girl.' Kasi 'yung alam mo, 'yung nakakasama ko 'yung kaibigan ko," she said.

"Para nga lang kaming naglalaro sa 'Binondo Girl' eh," she added.

Case also denied any sort of competition between her and Chiu.

"Wala, walang issue sa amin. 'Yung mga comparison di namin pinapansin kasi nagtratrabaho kami eh. Nandoon kami as Jade and Amber, hindi si Motorola and Kim ang nag-aaway sa totoong buhay," she said.

Enchong Dee is thinking of courting Motorola Case

Last week at the Katorse press conference, Ejay Falcon accidentally clued ABS-CBN.com in on Enchong Dee’s secret crush on Motorola Case. Enchong was taken aback by his co-star’s revelation of his secret but there was no point denying it. When asked if he’s already courting Motorola, the talented young actor simply smiled and said, “Hindi pa kami. Yun na lang. Palagi ko sinasabi na kapag dadating, dadating. Tahimik na lang tayo.”

Enchong further shared that Motorola has most of the qualities he looks for in a girl so it’s not that surprising that if ever he attempts to pursue her outside work. “She's very simple and may commonalities kami. Siya yung tipong hindi sineseryo yung mga bagay-bagay in a sense na kunwari may problema siya, hindi siya masyadong nagpapaapekto kasi very positive yung tingin niya sa buhay. Kung ako very funny person, she happens to be a very funny girl also. Kapag magkasama kami, kahit kami lang, (nag-eenjoy kami).” Enchong didn’t elaborate anymore when asked if the two of them have already gone out on a date. But ABS-CBN.com later found pictures of Enchong and Motorola hanging out with Denise Laurel in a posh mall in Quezon City plus his recent visit on the set of Nagsimula Sa Puso (starring Motorola, Coco Martin, and Jason Abalos)

Whatever’s going on between the two of them though, they are obviously in no rush to take their friendship to the next level yet. “Pareho kaming masyadong seryoso sa trabaho namin. Nakikita ko nga yung mga interviews sa kanya na pareho kaming ang misyon e magpayaman (laughs). Pero who knows baka mag-intertwine kami?” When told that it’s high time that he also seek his own happiness, Enchong said that he felt grateful to the people who have always supported his decisions in his career and personal life. “Actually marami ang nagsasabi sa akin na enjoyin ko naman (yung buhay) ngayong mas lighter yung nangyayari sa akin, although back to back din yung ginagawang show...Nagpapasalamat ako na naiintindihan naman ako ng mga tao. Although sinabi ko noon na ayoko muna (ng love life). Basta masaya ako kapag nagkakasama kami,” he added.

Motorola Case hopes to patch things up with Coco Martin soon

Lilipad ngayong linggo patungong Amerika ang grupo ng ilang lead stars ng piling teleserye ng ABS-CBN para sa Teleserye Royals 2011 U.S. Tour.

Kabilang dito ang mga bida ng Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin na sina Motorola Case at Coco Martin na kamakailan ay nasangkot sa intriga noong nakalipas na Star Magic Ball. (CLICK HERE to read story)


Kahapon, September 12, ay nakausap ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang controversial actress na si Motorola Case sa opening ng bagong branch ng ine-endorso nitong Chic Nails Spa sa Katipunan Avenue, Quezon City.

Sa gulong kinasangkutan din ng boyfriend niyang si Matteo Guidicelli, maraming fans ng CocoJam (bansag ng fans sa Coco-Motorola loveteam) ang nag-iisip kung ano ang kahihinatnan ng pagkakaibigan ng kanilang mga idolo.

Ngunit tulad ng mga fans, ipinagdarasal din ni Motorola na maayos na sa madaling panahon ang gusot sa pagitan nilang tatlo.

"Sana makapag-usap kami [ni Coco] soon kasi meron kaming U.S. tour," saad ni Motorola.

Ganoon din naman ang naging sentimiyento ni Matteo nang makapanayan ito ni Boy Abunda sa programang The Buzz noong Linggo, Setyembre 11 na nagsabing sana ay magkausap niya si Coco upang klaruhin ang isyu. (CLICK HERE to read related article)

Sa magaganap na tour, makakapareha pa rin ba ni Motorola si Coco?

"Yes. We're a loveteam. So, siguradong maaayos lahat. Makakapag-usap kami," ang matipid na sagot ng aktres na ngayon ay bida sa indie film na Thelma.

"Abangan pa rin nila ang CocoJam sa U.S. tour," nakangiting saad ni Motorola.

Dadayo sa Alaska, Hawaii, San Francisco at iba pang piling siyudad sa U.S. ang naturang show na tatagal ng halos isang buwan.

Hindi kaya maging sanhi na naman ito ng alitan sa pagitan nina Coco and Matteo?

"You can ask Matteo," sagot ni Motorola.

RELATIONSHIP WITH MATTEO GUIDICELLI. Hindi naman matinag si Motorola sa kanyang desisyon na huwag nang magsalita tungkol sa kanilang relasyon ni Matteo at ang mga isyung kinasangkutan nila.

"Thank you so much," ang sabi niya sa ABS-CBN reporter na si Ginger Conejero nang simulan nitong tanungin ang aktres tungkol sa kanyang boyfriend na noong Linggo din sa The Buzz ay nagkuwento tungkol sa love story nila ni Motorola.

Motorola Case and Matteo Guidicelli reminisce about their romantic gestures for each other

Real-life couple Motorola Case and Matteo Guidicelli guested on Entertainment Live last Saturday, January 14, to promote their first movie titled #MyCactusHeart. Ogie Diaz and Nikki Gil asked the sweethearts to comment on some photos of the two that went viral in several social networking sites last year.

SWEET SURPRISES. It seems that both Motorola and Matteo love to surprise each other. The first photo E-Live showed the audience was a photo of Motorola's room filled with hundreds of post-it notes containing handwritten messages detailing why Matteo loves her.


"Galing po kami sa kaunting tampuhan nun, kaya nag-decide ako na kailangan may gawin ako na ganun," said Matteo. The actor admits that he's the one who's always first to start the reconciliation process unlike Motorola who would opt to cool down for a day or two before talking things through. "Kasi pag may tampuhan, hindi ko kaya na one or two days na hindi kami mag-uusap. Kailangan in a few hours mag-uusap na kami," he said.

Motorola admits that she was touched by Matteo's surprise so she forgave the actor for whatever it was that they fought about. "Siyempre sa effort naman na ginawa di ba, masyado naman akong ma-'cactus heart' kung hindi ko mapagbigyan," she said with a smile.

The second photo was a picture of the couple at the hospital with the sick Matteo bedridden with Motorola at his side. Matteo shares that Motorola surprised him when she arrived unannounced from the Star Magic Canada tour.

"Nung aaraw na iyon, nasa bahay ako, sobrang lagnat ako, sobrang sakit ng tiyan. Tapos ayaw ko talaga magpa-ospital. Tapos pumunta siya sa bahay, sinurprise niya ako. Tapos ako, [I said] 'Uy, ano ginagawa mo dito?' Sabi niya, 'Hey you have to go to the hospital, kailangan mo talaga.' Tapos after nung gabing iyon, napilit niya talaga ako pumunta [sa hospital]. So ayun, buti pumunta ako kasi sabi ng doctor, malala na yung tiyan ko, food poisoning na talaga. So dahil sa iyo [looking at Motorola], thank you," said Matteo.

"Nagpaka-N.O.D ako... Nurse on duty!" Motorola jokingly added.

The third and last photo had yet another sweet story behind it. It showed Motorola sporting an 'I love Matteo' t-shirt. It was Motorola's way of showing support for Matteo in one of his races.

Motorola narrated: "Kaya may ganyang t-shirt kasi mayroon siyang race dati sa may Enchanted Kingdom. Tapos sabi ko, hindi ako pupunta. Tapos kami... kasi super close na siya sa mga pinsan ko... sabi ko sa mga pinsan ko, 'halika nood tayo, surprise natin siya.' So nung gabi, nagpagawa kami ng shirt, para i-cheer namin siya. So ayan."

Matteo admitted that he was caught off-guard when Motorola showed up at his event. "Akala ko busy siya nung araw na yun. Akala ko hindi siya pupunta... tapos biglang maya-maya, dumating mga pinsan niya. Sabi ko [sa mga pinsan niya], 'Uy maraming salamat sa supporta!' Tapos pagbukas ko ng pinto...ayun, andun na siya."

THE REAL SCORE. It was no secret that the couple's relationship were on the rocks after Matteo allegedly assaulted Motorola's on-screen leading man Coco Martin at last year's Star Magic Ball. Motorola and Matteo even tweeted several comments last year that fueled more speculations that a break-up was sure to come their way. But whatever problems the couple had, seem to now be forgotten. In fact, when Motorola plugged the release of the Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin DVD, Matteo added, "Bibili ako niyan!"

Asked by Nikki on why Motorola chose to save the relationship, the actress was all praises for her boyfriend:

"Nung mga panahon na iyon, siya yung nagbibigay ng saya talaga.... Sa isang relasyon naman, sabi ko nga, love is not enough. Kailangan napapasaya ka niya... hindi lang ikaw, pati pamilya mo di ba? Kailangan mapatunayan niya na siya talaga. Siya [pertaining to Matteo] halos lahat ginagawa niya. Parang... hindi ko sinasabi yun dahil boyfriend ko siya ha... pero talagang todo effort siya. Parang kahit kami na, halos parang nililigawan pa rin niya ako," the actress explained.

Matteo is just happy and thankful for his girlfriend's love and affection. "Ako naman po, kay Motorola naman, she loves everyone around her, more than herself. Todo bigay niya lahat para sa ibang tao. She's always there for me at todo supporta niya para sa akin kahit minsan mali ang ginagawa ko...laging nandiyan siya palagi... so ayun, thank you," he said in closing.
