Kimerald: Still the Hottest Teen Loveteam to beat

Contrary to rumors, teen stars Kim Chiu and Gerald Anderson say their love team isn’t splitting up--in fact, they're saying that it's now stronger than ever.
The two have become so inseparable and compatible as a love team that their fans eventually merged their names into "Kimerald" ala Hollywood couples Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner ("Bennifer") and Brad Pitt with wife Angelina Jolie ("Brangelina").
"Ayaw po muna namin na magkahiwalay, gusto po namin na kami pa din yung mag-partner," the young actress Chiu told abs-cbnNews.com in an exclusive interview inside the ABS-CBN compound.
"Mas komportable kami sa isat isa, mag-trabaho umarte," Anderson added.
And to prove their strong partnership, two big projects are already lined up for them this first quarter of 2008, including the horror series "Maligno" on ABS-CBN.
The two even shared that they constantly help each other out during tapings, making sure that they are ready when time comes to deliver their lines.
"Okey lang nagtutulungan kami sa mga eksena nagtho-throw lines kami palagi para pagpunta namin sa set ready na kaming dalawa," Chiu said.
Anderson on the other hand bared some details on their working relationship with the rest of the cast, especially with the series lead star Claudine Barretto.
"Okey naman po sila... si Ms. Claudine okey naman po, noong una nakaka-intimidate pero sobrang naging okey din po kaming lahat," Anderson shared.
A few days ago, the new season of Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition was launched and some say new teen stars will rise from that batch just like Anderson and Chiu did.
The two became the biggest stars of the previous season of PBB Teen Edition and they say they are not worried about possible competition from the new batch.
In the past two years when their "Kimerald" tandem became a hit, they've had two blockbuster movies, a top-rating teleserye, several television shows and countless endorsements, proving that they found their rightful place in showbiz.
