BEING its hottest property, GMA Network hosted a birthday bash for Richard Gutierrez at One Esplanade last Tuesday night where they also taped a birthday special for him, “A Handsome Journey,” to be shown on GMA-7 tonight after “Fulhaus.” Since it’s also the birthday of his twin brother Raymond, who’s also hot as a host, the celebration is actually for the two of them.
Richard is also celebrating his seventh anniversary in showbiz. He started as a child actor but he went back to showbiz only when he was 17 and introduced by GMA-7 as a teen actor in “Click.” His camp is also jubilant because his show, “Kamandag” easily defeated “Lobo,” the show of his former partner Angel Locsin in the ratings game. It also promotes his Valentine movie, “My Best Friend’s Girlfriend.”
The entire Gutierrez family was there led by their proud parents, Annabelle Rama and Eddie Gutierrez. Eldest sister Ruffa was there. People asked if she’s moving to GMA-7 and she said: “I’m still with ABS-CBN. I’m just here as a guest to support my brothers.”
Richard did the opening dance number ala-Justin Timberlake. Then there was a mini-fashion show with JC De Vera, Alex de Rossi, Francine Prieto, Ehra and Michelle Madrigal, Bubbles Paraiso, and Wendell Ramos, with the two Richards (Gomez and Gutierrez) doing the finale. Janno Gibbs and Ogie Alcasid gave a special rendition of their Sobrang OJ Pare portion in “SOP.” Joey de Leon was a special guest as he co-starred with Richard and Raymond when they were only 5 years old in “Knock, Knock, Who’s There?” Also on hand to dance with Richard were Chynna Ortaleza (his first ka-love team), Rhian Ramos, Isabel Oli, Bianca King and his leading ladies in “Kamandag”: Maxene Magalona and Jewel Mische.
An interesting portion shows Raymond interviewing Richard, who admitted he’s more scared of their dad than their mom. “Si Mommy, lagi nang galit kaya sanay na ako,” he explains. “E, si Dad, quiet lang, kaya pag nagalit tiklop kaming lahat, pati si Mommy.” They both took the lie detector test with each of them questioning the other. It was revealed that Raymond doubled for Richard in “Sugo” and he’s peeved each time people tell him he should lose weight.
Richard was surprised when two Kapamilya stars greeted him with a VTR message: ex-girlfriend Anne Curtis who said he’s sweet and caring, and rumored crush KC Concepcion. Did ABS-CBN give them permission to do this?
Of course, Marian Rivera has a special participation as she’s Richard’s leading lady in “My Best Friend’s Girlfriend”. Marian has nothing but praises for Richard. “Napakasarap niyang katrabaho dahil kahit pareho kaming pagod sa taping ng respective shows naming ‘Marimar’ at ‘Kamandag’, very high pa rin ang energy kaya you’d be inspired to give your best in each scene with him,” she says.
