Shuvee Etrata and Anthony Constanino are radiating romantic-comedy charm in the first episode of the “Unang Hirits” segment.
In the episode, Shuvee portrays Vee, the younger sister of Jay, played by the resident chef JR Royol, while Anthony takes on the role of Tony, Vee’s suitor.
Presented in split screen, the series launch featured Vee in the “Unang Hirit” studio and Tony at a wet market, assisting Jay in collecting fish.
To win both Jay’s approval and Vee’s heart, Tony eagerly helps with market chores and cooking escabeche.
While doing some market chores, Tony charmed Vee with some pick-up lines.
“Are you Google? Because you’re everything I’m searching for,” he said, sending Vee into a giddy frenzy.
“I knew it! Worth the wait,” Vee responded by making a half-heart on the screen, which Tony completed with his own.
As the first episode came to a close, viewers were left hanging, eager to see whether Tony would earn Jay’s approval to pursue Vee—a question that will unfold in the episodes to come.
Fans will see more AnVee moments in the music video, which will mark Anthony and Shuvee’s first project together.
The music video is set to be released on August 22 at 8:00 p.m.
Shuvee was among the 20 housemates of the show. She and her fellow housemates recently reunited for a concert at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
During the concert, Shuvee gave a shoutout, once again saying that he is her TDH—tall, dark, and handsome.
Anthony was one of the people who welcomed her back to the outside world after she and another housemate were evicted from the house.
The model, who signed with an agency earlier this year, has been courting her even before she joined the show.
Meanwhile, Shuvee currently appears in a series as a warrior.
She is also set to star in an upcoming series with fellow former housemates.
