Christian proud of Rachelle Ann’s Miss Saigon role

Christian Bautista is proud of former girlfriend and fellow Kapuso Rachelle Ann Go, who will play Gigi in West End’s “Miss Saigon” next year.

“I’m very happy na nakuha niya yung role, and sad also na aalis siya. Pero as a friend, kaming lahat, kaming mga Champions (their former group in the noontime show ASAP), full support,” Christian said at the renewal of his contract with Ink All-You-Can on Tuesday, December 10.

Christian shared that if their schedule permits, he and fellow Champions plan to watch Rachelle in London. Rachelle, Christian and Mark Bautista are now with GMA, but they have maintained their friendship with Sarah Geronimo, Erik Santos, Jed Madela and Yeng Constantino who are ABS-CBN talents.

While Christian has performed in international shows and musicals, he feels that he is in no position to advise Rachelle about her “Miss Saigon” stint.


“Advice? Hindi ko alam kasi ngayon mas marami na siyang alam kaysa sa akin. Siya yung naka-meet kay Cameron (Mackintosh). I’m very happy that she’s gonna be there. She’s gonna learn so much. And when she comes back, wow, I would love to learn (from Rachelle).”

Still single

Although he doesn’t have a new relationship, there is no bad blood between Christian and former girlfriend Carla Dunareanu.

“Before we didn’t want to talk about it. But we’re friends. We’re happy.”

Meanwhile, Christian’s “Cinderella” co-star Karylle is rumored to be tying the knot early next year. He admitted that they haven’t talked about the issue yet, but if ever the rumor is true, Christian wishes her the best.

“I wish whatever next year brings will be filled with happiness. And we are here to support you.As a friend, tatanungin ko muna siya, kung totoo iyon, ano ang kakantahin.”
