Elmo Magalona could not have been blessed with a better first on-screen kiss partner than Sam Pinto in “Tween Academy: Class of 2012” where the newbie actor plays a shy-type tween infatuated with his remedial class teacher played by FHM’s sexiest.
“That kissing scene gave me a lot of pressure,” Elmo confessed. “Sobra talaga pressure at kaba ko. Imagine kissing Sam Pinto? Wow! Kinabahan talaga ako. Kasi naman, Sam Pinto yan, FHM Sexiest Woman for 2011.”
When Bulletin Entertainment asked how long it took to shoot the scene, a blushing, Elmo said “Five takes!”
In “Tween Academy…” Sam plays Maddie, the boy who assumes that his teacher has a crush on him.
Elmo’s character is kind of an outcast, “at mga babae pa ang mga kaibigan ko – sina Kara at George (played by Barbie Forteza and Bea Binene, respectively).” As Enzo, he is perceived as an introvert. His character comes out of his shell as he experiences love for the first time.
“Tween Academy…” is a joint project between GMA Films and SM Development Corp. It gathers today’s hottest young stars in a story about the ups and downs of high school life. Topbillers are the Kapuso tweens Barbie Forteza, Joshua Dionisio, Bea Binene, Jake Vargas, Lexi Fernandez, Louise de los Reyes, Alden Richards, Derrick Monasterio, Kristoffer Martin, Joyce Ching, Yassi Pressman and of course, Elmo Magalona.
At 17, Elmo still stays with mom Pia and other younger siblings. A high school graduate, he hopes to enroll in filmmaking or a course about science when time warrants.
