Are sparks flying between Jameson Blake and Barbie Forteza?
That’s the question fans can’t stop asking after the two were spotted showing undeniable chemistry at a recent fun run event.
Following their joint appearance at the ‘Lights, Camera, Run!’ Takbo Para sa Pelikulang Pilipino charity event for Mowelfund on May 11, netizens have been “shipping” the unexpected pair.
The event, led by Alden Richards, brought together both Kapuso and Kapamilya stars—including Barbie and Jameson, who ran side by side at the Mall of Asia Concert Grounds.
Barbie shared a sweet selfie with Jameson in her Instagram Story, captioned: “SOOOO proud of you @jmsnblake first run 16k! Job well done! Super appreciate you for running with me.”
Jameson, in turn, posted highlights of his 16K run and included the same selfie with Barbie, writing: “Survived my first 16K Run. From one event to another, plus sore muscles. But great company and a great cause made it all worth it.”
Naturally, fans flooded the comments with kilig reactions, calling the two “bagay” and speculating on a possible budding romance.
In a recent vlog by Ogie Diaz, the veteran showbiz reporter shared that he had directly asked Jameson about the real score between him and Barbie.
“Tinanong ko si Jameson Blake sa real score nila ni Barbie, at ang sabi ni Jameson ay naging close talaga sila ni Barbie sa maikling panahong nagkasama sila sa isang pelikula na malapit na raw ipalabas,” Ogie revealed.
The two actors recently wrapped filming for Kontrabida Academy, a Netflix-bound movie also starring Eugene Domingo.
When asked if he plans to court Barbie, Jameson gave a coy but telling answer: “I’m still trying to get to know her, hehe,” he said, according to Ogie.
Jameson described Barbie as “mabait and very professional,” echoing the sentiments of many who have worked with the Kapuso Primetime Princess.
Following her recent breakup with longtime boyfriend Jak Roberto, Barbie is currently single. Jameson, on the other hand, has kept his dating life out of the spotlight.
