Sumasabog ngayon ang mga tagahanga ni Kim Chiu matapos isiwalat ni Mama OG ang diumano’y labis na pag-uugali ni Julia laban kay Kim Chiu dahil sa selos — isang tasa ng kape raw ang ibinuhos kay Kim Chiu. Ano nga ba ang totoong nangyayari sa pagitan ng dalawang ito…?

Fashion PULIS: Kim Chiu, Julia Barretto, PTNI Lead PH Nominees in Asian  Television Awards 2024

This is too much. According to the gossip, Kim Chiu allegedly had coffee thrown at her. Julia Barretto, how true is this? She’s extremely insecure. Is that why she’s trying to ruin Gerald Anderson’s ex? Julia B. seems like a thug who can’t move on, especially after it was announced that she’s no longer part of The Ali Projects. Her disruptive behavior on set is becoming excessive.

No wonder Director Jojo has been in a bad mood, but he’s still trying to be professional. Here are some of the comments:
“Poor Kim Chiu, having to deal with Julia’s antics. And Gerald? He can’t even visit his girlfriend to fix things. Even Kimmy is getting dragged into their mess. Honestly, Kimmy doesn’t care about any of that — she’s focused on her career and Paulo.”

That’s why so many people are angry — there’s no respect. One comment added:
“You know, Director Jojo is always grateful for the good weather in Cebu, but Julia B. is ruining everything — even the stubborn fans are making things worse. They just won’t leave KimPau (Kim and Paulo) alone. What’s going on with Julia? Why is her behavior getting out of control? Management, or even Gerald Anderson himself, should talk to her before she keeps hanging around Cebu just to stir up trouble.”

And then there are the fans or supporters. Instead of letting the production team focus on filming, they’re adding to the problems. The noise on set and the way they spread updates from the location on social media — it’s all completely wrong. Hopefully, this ends soon.

 

In the world of Philippine showbiz, drama among celebrities is nothing new. One of the most talked-about stories involved the subtle tension between Kim Chiu and Julia Barretto — two famous actresses who were both romantically linked to one man: Gerald Anderson.


WHERE IT ALL BEGAN – THE “NAME DROP” ON LIVE TELEVISION

The tension first sparked in October 2020 during Kim Chiu’s appearance on the variety show It’s Showtime. In one segment, she was asked to like a photo on Gerald Anderson’s Instagram. Upon opening his profile, Kim unintentionally blurted out:

“Tapos pagbukas mo rito, nandito si Julia Barretto.”
(“And when you open it, here’s Julia Barretto.”)

What seemed like an innocent slip immediately caught public attention, especially since Julia was rumored to be dating Gerald at that time — Kim’s ex-boyfriend.


JULIA’S RESPONSE – “JUST MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS”

Shortly after the incident aired, Julia posted a photo on Instagram with the caption:

“Out here minding my own business.”

Though she didn’t name names, many netizens believed it was a subtle jab in response to Kim’s remark — an elegant yet pointed way to address the drama. This post only fueled speculations of a quiet rift between the two stars.


A HISTORY OF FRIENDLIER TIMES – IT WASN’T ALWAYS TENSE

Despite the recent headlines, Kim and Julia were once seen as amicable toward each other. In August 2019, during ABS-CBN’s All-Star Games, Kim wrote on Instagram:

“At the end of the day, we’re all in one team!”

More recently, in June 2023, they were seen greeting each other with a friendly cheek kiss and handshake at a party. While the moment wasn’t overly warm, it was a clear sign that both women were capable of moving past their misunderstandings.


GERALD ANDERSON – STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF IT ALL

Gerald Anderson, who was romantically linked to both Kim and Julia, remains a key figure in this narrative. After his breakup with Kim, rumors swirled about his relationship with Julia. Even though both actresses have since moved forward with their own lives, Gerald’s name continues to resurface whenever the two women are brought into the spotlight.


CONCLUSION: FROM CONFLICT TO MATURITY

The story between Kim Chiu and Julia Barretto reflects the complexities of celebrity relationships, where even the smallest remark can snowball into public controversy. Though tensions were evident in the past, their recent interactions show professionalism and personal growth.

In the whirlwind world of showbiz, maintaining mutual respect is no easy feat — but perhaps, Kim and Julia are slowly but surely finding that balance.
