MANILA, Philippines – Andrea Brillantes is the latest Kapamilya star to watch UAAP basketball action.
Brillantes on Wednesday relished the opportunity to watch UAAP action again—as time has finally permitted—at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
"I think it has been two years, ngayon na lang ulit ako nakabalik dito [sa UAAP]. Actually, last year ko pa gusto manood ulit, pero super busy. Ngayon, sakto, kakatapos lang nung [ABS-CBN] Christmas special kahapon and ngayon, meron akong extra time," the 21-year-old Star Magic talent told ABS-CBN News.
Asked which team she is supporting, Andrea said she's rallying behind the UP Fighting Maroons.

"UP, UP pa rin. Mas sinusuportahan ko lang 'yung UP kaysa sa kalaban today. 'Yun lang naman," Brillantes said
Notably, her ex two years ago was former Fighting Maroon and UAAP champion Ricci Rivero. They broke up more than a year ago.
She also have friends "from the other side," the De La Salle University, and bared that she's also communicating with them.
"Actually, may friends nga ako from the other side, nagte-textan lang kami na sino panalo ngayon," the actress shared.
