Things got intense between actresses Lovi Poe and Erich Gonzales due to a fight scene between their two characters in the upcoming film The Significant Other.
According to a story on Philippine Entertainment Portal (PEP), the scene shot earlier this morning had the two actresses slapping each other and pulling each other’s hair. Both actresses got hurt because Gonzales’ finger got caught in Poe’s earing during the scene.
“Erich was shaking because of the cuts on her hand from Lovi’s earing. Lovi’s neck was also swollen,” part-time actor and showbiz radio host Ahwel Paz, also a cast member of the film, said in the caption of his Instagram.
Poe apologized to Gonzales before turning around to take care of her own injuries.
Paz told PEP that his posts were not movie promos and also clarified that the fight was part of the scene and not an actual fight. “They don’t have any reason to fight in real life,” he said.
The film, directed by Joel Lamangan, has been halted to allow the two actresses to take care of their injuries.
