At the premiere night of Judy Ann Santos and Angelica Panganiban’s movie, Ang Dalawang Mrs. Reyes, on Tuesday, January 16, Kim Chiu was in tears and fangirled over Judy Ann.

The scene was even caught on video of how Kim’s friend Bela Padilla teased Judy Ann.

Judy Ann also played a game with Kim.

Kim said, “At that time, Bela was teasing me, so it seemed…

“Well, I just watched their movie, so I was still full of emotions.

“So, when I saw her, it seemed like, ‘Oh, my God!’ I was starstruck!

“Then I just started crying, I don’t know.”

The 27-year-old Kapamilya actress added, “Judy Ann really has life goals.”

Kim has previously been with the Queen of Teleserye in an endorsement, but she said she controlled her emotions for her idol that time.

FAN AS A CHILD. According to Kim, she wasn’t even an actress back then when she really idolized Judy Ann, 39.

“It’s been so long. I wasn’t even an actress yet, I always said she was my idol, eh.

“Eh, in her movie, like in super iyak siya, and then she was really good at acting—making people laugh, making them cry.

“‘Oh my God, that’s what I look up to when I act.’ It’s like she’s right in front of me, then I was just teased so I cried.

“I said, ‘Bela, I’m really going to pinch you!'” Kim laughed.

She added, “I was still young, I was just at home, we lived in a small house, I could watch her.”

Kim also admires how Judy Ann handles her personal life.

“Personally, how she divides her career life, her family life, and then she divides her time between what she wants to do.

“All I see is that she studied cooking, became a very famous artist, and now she has a happy family with three kids.

“So, it seems like she divided her life beautifully. That’s it.

“Then she’s still an artist to this day.”
