"Growing Up" Stars Attend the Star Magic Ball

ABS-CBN's Growing Up is set to air its pilot episode today, September 4, after ASAP Rocks. It replaces the recently-concluded Good Vibes.

Growing Up is topbilled by perhaps the hottest young dramatic actresses we have today – Julia Montes and Kathryn Bernardo of the Mara Clara fame. Also in the cast are Diego Loyzaga and Daniel Padilla as their respective leading men, plus Neil Coleta, Kiray Celis, Yen Santos, EJ Jallorina and Maricar Reyes. The teen-oriented show is directed by Lino Cayetano.

But before the much-awaited premiere of Growing Up, the cast of the teen drama attended the Star Magic Ball tonight. Check out some of the pics I found interesting.

"Growing Up" Premieres September 4 on ABS-CBN

Mara Clara stars Julia Montes, Kathryn Bernardo, and Diego Loyzaga will be back on national television beginning September 4, Sunday, which marks the premiere of ABS-CBN's newest teen-oriented show, Growing Up. They will be joined by Daniel Padilla, a new teen star that I'm sure teenage girls would love.

Storyline:
Ella and Tammy (Kathryn and Julia respectively) together with their friends would do everything to help their favorite teacher (played by Maricar Reyes) when they found out she was sick. They would join different contests to come up with the right amount to help their teacher. They would encounter trials along the way, and at the same time learn valuable life lessons with regards to themselves, their dreams and about falling in love.

Directed by Lino Cayetano, Growing Up also stars Neil Coleta, Kiray Celis, Yen Santos and EJ Fallurin.

Diego Loyzaga for Bench Pinoy Lab

Bench has released the Pinoy Lab ad featuring the Kapamilya teen star Diego Loyzaga on the brand's Facebook page. The poster has been on display on some Bench stores for a while now.

The 16-year-old 5'11" cutie is considered as showbiz royalty. His father is actor Cesar Montano and his mom, lounge singer-turned-actress Teresa Loyzaga, was also very popular back in the days. Teresa is sister to Bing Loyzaga and the Loyzaga brothers of the Philippine Basketball Association. I assume that Diego got his height from the Loyzaga clan, and here's hoping that he also got their excellent basketball playing skills.

Diego is in the cast of ABS-CBN's upcoming teen-oriented show titled Growing Up together with Julia Montes and Kathryn Bernardo. The show will replace the Sunday afternoon teen drama, Good Vibes, which is ending soon.
