ABS-CBN superstars Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla were featured on a digital billboard in New York Times Square and on downtown Los Angeles last August 5.
The celebrity couple graced the Times Square billboard as part of Pepsi’s advertisement campaign.
Along with their fans, Padilla’s mother actress Karla Estrada took to Instagram on Thursday to flaunt a photo of the billboard, celebrating her son’s simple achievement.
“I wish I’m in Times Square right now! At mag sisisigaw ako ng anak ko yan! Anak ko yan!!! (and I will proudly scream “that’s my son!”) Congratulations Kathniel and the entire team!” Estrada expressed atop her caption.
“…nasa times square ka ah! Pa pepsi ka naman dyan!” (you were featured in times square! Give me some pepsi!),” Estrada wrote in a separate post she uploaded with Padilla’s photo Friday.
Another billboard located at one of the world’s busiest streets were also that of the biggest P-pop group SB19, YouTube sensation Mimiyuuuh, and basketball player Ricci Rivero.
Even before the advertisement’s official photos were released, fans of the celebrity couple and SB19 were both able to catch snippets from a live camera footage of AE Signage while the billboard is being installed along 1560 Broadway.
Showing the surreal event, their fanbases decided to make the hashtags #KathNielWorldwideWithPepsi and #SB19SaNYatLA on top of Twitter’s Philippine trending list.
