Barbie Forteza celebrates birthday on set of 'Pulang Araw' as thanksgiving treat to co-stars
Barbie Forteza turned 27 today!
According to Aubrey Carampel's report on "24 Oras," Wednesday, the Kapuso Primetime Princess threw a feast on the set of "Pulang Araw" in celebration of her birthday and as a thanksgiving treat to all her co-stars, staff, and production team.
The actress couldn't help but express her gratitude to the entire team of "Pulang Araw" and supporters of the groundbreaking historical drama.
"Talagang nakakawala po ng pagod at hirap at talagang buong team po ng 'Pulang Araw,' lahat po ng ito ay talagang team effort at paghihirap po ng bawat isa sa'min kaya maraming maraming salamat po," she said.
Barbie also marked her birthday with a photoshoot inspired by her character, Adelina, a vaudeville performer. On Instagram, she shared photos of her donning vaudeville and cabaret-inspired outfits.
As for her birthday wish, Barbie said that wishing for anything more would be superfluous.
"Kalabisan na kung hihiling pa ko dahil ibinigay na sa akin lahat ng mabubuting bagay, mabuting kalusugan sa akin at sa pamilya ko, successful operation ng tatay ko, and everything went smoothly," she said.
"Nung nagdaang bagyo, ako'y lubos na nagpapasalamat na kami ng pamilya ko ay nanatiling ligtas. Patuloy ang aking trabaho at patuloy ang napakaraming opportunities for me, maraming proyekto, kaya sabi ko walang hanggang pasasalamat na lamang."
Many have since sent their birthday greetings to the actress, including "Pulang Araw" co-star David Licauco and her former "Maria Clara at Ibarra" co-star Andrea Torres.
"Pulang Araw" traces the intertwined lives of four childhood friends: Adelina (Barbie), Teresita (Sanya Lopez), Hiroshi (David), and Eduardo (Alden Richards) as they navigate different struggles before and during World War II.
"Pulang Araw" is now airing on GMA Prime. It is also streaming on Netflix, where it landed on the No. 1 spot of the platform's list of "Top 10 TV Shows in the Philippines Today."
