Elnella's Fairytail Adventure

They first met in 2016 when their red strings of fate met in the teleserye "Born For You" from then and there, the love team of Janella Salvador and Elmo Magalona went on to be one of the biggest love teams today they got a solid fan base and they got a couple of successful projects together.

"I was actually nervous" Elmo shared when asked what does he felt when he and Janella first met, "I didn't know what to expect" he added. Janella says her first impression of Elmo when they first met was "(He is) Quiet and Reserve talaga", "Akala ko nga hindi kami magiging close" she added.

Janella and Elmo admitted that up until their first movie they still felt there's a bit of a wall between them, they had a hard time doing heavy scenes and drama scenes as they find themselves in an awkward situation before, but now they are more comfortable as Janella saw the difference from then and now "Nakita ko yung difference ng pagiging comfortable namin, nakatulong na talaga ngayon in terms of when we're doing confrontation or emotional.", "Dati kasi sa Born for you it was kinda hard kasi medyo may walls pa kami, but now titingin lang ako sa mata nya kung kailangan umiyak nakakaiyak na" she added. Elmo also added that it's because Janella already trust him now which made everything easier for them.

This year Janella has two movies with different leading men, the first one is My Fairytail Love Story with Elmo and the other one is So Connected with Jameson Blake, Elmo's statement regarding this was "Wala eh, she's really talented and she get's to really work with other people talaga and it showed na yung skills niya bilang actress doesn't really define yung love team namin, it doesn't define her as an actress. It's inevitable na magkaroon kami ng ibang partners."

Janella on the other hand explains that who ever she worked with it is important that she separate her personal to her public life "You can't expose everything, syempre you have to have your own personal life and whoever I work with naman hindi naman mababago nun yung personal relationship with Elmo". 

Speaking of relationship, when asked about how will they label their relationship Elmo answered that Janella was so special for him, while Janella said "He(Elmo) really means alot to me, Important sya sa akin".

This February 14 their movie My Fairytail Love Story is set to sail in cinemas and they hope that people will enjoy the movie so much so that they can still work with each other again maybe in another movie, they are also very thankful with the support that they are getting for the movie. 

Meanwhile, Star Magic teamed up with One Music PH to present their newest Tunog Star Magic offering for the love month featuring the of course Elmo Magalona and Janella Salvador, the video is coming out this Saturday, February 10, at 6pm in Star Magic's official Youtube channel.
