When I say that Filipino fandoms are the most generous and loyal in the world, I say it not just as a columnist but as a personal witness.

Of generous and loyal fans

Yes, yours truly did a fun little cameo as the school principal in the upcoming romantic movie of Ashtine Olviga and Andres Muhlach entitled "Minamahal: 100 Bulaklak Para Kay Luna."

What I saw on set melted my heart.

Although Viva Films would provide lunch and dinner for their cast and crew, every shooting day, a different Ashtin fandom group volunteered to cater lunch and dinner for the cast and crew — and I mean, catered meals, Starbucks coffee, ice cream, cakes, and pancit! Imagine being served sinigang na baboy one day, Korean fried chicken the next, and leche flan to cap it off. This wasn't just fan service; this was fan love in action.
