Nanliligaw ba si Victor Basa kay Carla Humphries sa tunay na buhay?

Aminado si Victor na takot siyang manligaw for fear na baka tumanggap siya ng rejection. Dating modelo si Victor at second year college student sa La Salle.

Ano ba ang katangiang hinahanap niya sa isang babae? Iyon daw witty at siyempre maganda tulad ni Carla.

Samantala, mukhang madaling naka-recover si Carla sa kanilang failed relationship ni Janus del Prado. Truth to tell ay tila si Janus ang hindi madaling nakalimot. Sa ngayon ay free as a bird si Carla na sa ganda at taas na 5’7" ay pwedeng kumandidata sa beauty pageant.

Ewan lang namin kung type niya si Victor na ipalit kay Janus sa tunay na buhay.

Carla in Abt Ur Luv - Epi 22

Episode Title: Win-some-lose-some Friday

This blog entry contains episode highlights related to Carla's character, Brenda.

---

While chatting before a basketball game, Hillary agrees with Gzel and Nelle that there's some tension between Brenda and Celine.

* * *

Later, Celine is with Neri waiting for their badminton doubles game to start, when Gwen and Brenda arrive. Gwen and Neri express doubts about their ability to play since they are just beginners. Brenda is quick to turn away from Celine so they won't have to talk.

* * *

Celine and Neri are resting on the sidelines before their badminton game, when two girls next to them start trash-talking, complaining that the lack of competition in the game makes this tournament so "cheap".

Neri stops Celine from picking a fight by talking her into play a few rounds to warm up. Gwen also talks a reluctant Brenda into joining them on the court.

* * *

During their warm up game, both Neri and Gwen decide try their best, but it's obvious that they're having difficulty. They finally both decide to walk out of the tournament, because they're convinced that Celine and Brenda are better off playing as partners.

Celine tells Brenda she understands completely if Brenda would rather not play with her. Brenda tells her she's not that immature -- they can be civilized long enough to play a game together.

Before a surprised Celine can react, Brenda goes on to tell Celine that she's going to go watch Josh's basketball game until it's their turn to play. She also instructs Celine to keep an eye on her stuff, then walks off, leaving Celine to stare after her.

Brenda arrives at the basketball court just in time to see Hillary give Bill a kiss on the cheek. She is about to approach to Hillary when her cellphone beeps.

* * *

Back at the badminton court, Celine is anxiously waiting for Brenda's return. Their competitors are already talking about winning the game by default, but Brenda gets back in time, and they start the game.

The game goes badly at first, with Celine and Brenda making costly mistakes. At one point, Celine even gets hit on the head by the shuttlecock. Brenda walks over to her and asks if she's alright. Celine is okay, but she says it's like their opponents are doing this on purpose.

Now bonded by a common enemy, the two girls are determined to win, and they start playing well together. They win the game, and in their excitement, they hug until they remember that they're supposed to be enemies and quickly step away from each other.

In the awkward silence that follows, Celine tries again to apologize, but Brenda is also quick to offer her own apology. It doesn't take long before they agree that it's time to put the past behind them, and they hug again.

Brenda tells Celine that she's in the mood for some ice cream, and Celine says it's her treat. The two friends are happy and smiling as they walk off the court together.

* * *

After all their respective games, the gang gets together at the finish line for the sprint, where Gens, Mao, Stick, and Lieu are competing. Mao wins the sprint, and everyone cheers his win.

* * *

At home, Celine and Brenda are in the Smith living room chatting animatedly about their badminton game, and admitting that they really missed each other.

Hillary arrives just then, and says that the boys lost their basketball game. But she's still all smiles as she leaves the living room, where Brenda and Celine continue chatting and catching up on each other's news.

Next loveteam to watch

WHERE physical appearances is concerned, Victor Basa and Carla Humphries look great together. The two talents of Star Magic were featured in last week’s episode of Abt Ur Luv entitled “Patak Patak Tuesday”. [CF's note: Actually, they weren't.]

Carla has been around for quite sometime and with her statuesque beauty, she might just qualify to join a beauty pageant. Her delivery of the Tagalog language, however, needs more improvement.

When asked whether Victor is courting her, she said she has no idea. Hindi ba nagpaparamdam, we asked her again and Carla replied as if she doesn’t even know the meaning of the word. But friends (not great friends maybe) they absolutely are because they are being formed as a love team.

Carla has French blood and hopes to continue learning how to speak French.

We first met Victor at the Island Cove in Cavite City where ASAP was taping a summer special. We inquired about the huge tattoo on his arm. “I regret having this tattoo done on my body. As you can see, medyo burado na. It will require me a few more sessions para mabura ito completely,” he says.

What prompted him to have a tattoo in the first place?

“Wala lang. I guess, napagaya lang sa aking kabarkada. I don’t want to feel left out kaya nagpa-tattoo ako and believe me, it was very painful. Thanks to laser at hindi gaanong masakit ang pagpapatanggal nito.”

Victor’s adolescent years was full of angst but he would not tell us in detail the many insecurities he felt while growing up. As part of therapy, he wrote essays on these during his high school days.

One of Victor’s greatest fears is to be rejected. This is probably the reason why he is not courting Carla or any other woman for that matter. When queried about his sexual preference, the lanky former student of De la Salle College firmly said, “I am sure of my masculinity”. We suggested that he could do the courting through texting where his fears would be lessened.

Another fear of Victor is not being able to portray a role in the most effective manner. “I froze when I first faced the cameras. After undergoing an acting workshop ay nabawasan na ang aking kaba. Acting is totally a new experience for me and I am trying to be very positive about the whole thing. It is now my bread and butter and I want to last longer in this business.”

A woman who has wit is what Victor goes for. We wonder whether Carla would fit the description or not. [CF's note: Click here if you're also wondering.]

Carla in Abante article

Apat na taon na sa showbiz si Carla Humphries pero may pagka-manang pa rin siya.

Lumabas na sa sexy pictorial ang mga kasabayan niya pero never pa rin niya maatim na magpakuha kahit man lang naka-bathing suit. Hindi pa raw niya kaya.

Nalolokah nga ang Filipina mother niya. Si Carla ay may French-American na ama at dati silang naninirahan sa Paris, France kaya fluent si Carla sa wikang Pranses.

Gayung sa Paris siya nanirahan ay dapat moderna na si Carla pero kabaligtaran ito at mas pinili niya ang pagiging conservative Filipina.

Si Carla ay isa sa main cast ng Star Magic Presents Abt Ur Luv kung saan ang katambal niya ay si Victor Basa.

Hindi man aminin ni Carla ay type na type niya si Victor at kinikilig ang dalaga tuwing mapag-uusapan ang actor/model.

Natatakot kami na kapag biglang bumigay ang Carla at makawala sa pagka-konserbatibo ay baka kung anu-ano ang paggagawain.

Ayaw na alisin si Victor Basa

Ayaw pumayag ni Carla Humphries na alisin si Victor Basa sa Abt Ur Luv dahil mawawalan siya ng ka-loveteam.

Okey sa kanya kung may Walang Kapalit ito at may ibang kapareha, dahil daily ang soap at pang-Saturday ang show nila sa ABS-CBN.

Dream ni Carla ang maging big star at naniniwalang malaki ang maitutulong ng loveteam nila ni Victor para madaling matupad ang pangarap.

Sa reaction ng fans sa mall tour nila, nakikita niyang kinikilig at sinusubaybayan ang istorya nina Stick (Victor) at Brenda, role niya sa Abt Ur Luv.

Maganda, sexy at flawless si Carla, posible ba siyang mag-cover sa FHM, Uno o Maxim?

“As much as possible, ayoko dahil ’di ko carry. Conservative ako at ang family ko at mag-one-piece lang ako kung nagsi-swimming, conscious na ako. Nirerespeto ko ang desisyon ng mga nagku-cover sa men’s magazines at naa-appreciate ko ang ginagawa nila, pero personally, ’di ko kaya. Aarte na lang ako,” sabi ni Carla.

Hindi natutuwa

Hindi na rin natutuwa si Carla Humphries na everytime nakakausap siya ng press, laging tinatanong ang ex-boyfriend at ang patuloy nilang pagdidedmahan ‘pag nagkikita. Paano nga naman makaka-move on ang ex-couple kung kinukulit ng press? Ha-ha-ha!

Napansin lang namin na nagbago na ng statement si Carla tungkol sa ka-loveteam niya sa Abt Ur Luv na si Victor Basa. Kung dati’y kinikilig siya at inaaming type niya ang binata at gusto niyang maging boyfriend. Ngayon, ‘di na niya priority ang lovelife at ‘di sure kung gusto rin siya ng kapareha.

Para sa kanya, ang pinaka-sweet na ginawa nito’y nang sorpresahin siya at dumating sa Matabungkay Beach sa Batangas noong Holy Week para siya’y bisitahin. ‘Katuwa lang dahil kasama niya that time si Denise Laurel, ang karibal niya sa binata sa Abt Ur Luv.
