With so many iconic movies, teleseryes, and even songs under her belt, I’m pretty sure millennials have found joy or even solace in Filipina actress Bea Alonzo’s works – may that be through quotes from Basha of One More Chance or through memes of Bobbie “Bakit parang kasalanan ko?” Salazar of Four Sisters and a Wedding. However, while she’s giving us more reasons to be happy this holiday season with the launch of her “Choose OPPO, Choose Joy” campaign, have you ever wondered what brings joy to the Kapuso actress’ life? We’re here to give you all the deets we gathered during the OPPO Philippines media event held at Shangri-la The Fort.

1. FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND FANS

Despite the fame, the 35-year-old actress remains very down to earth, constantly thanking her family, fans, and friends every time she can. For her, spending time with her loved ones, traveling, eating, taking pictures of the food, and vlogging are some of the things that she enjoys doing with them. Attendees at the event even got a peek at some of her travel photos and snap a photo with her!

“I’ve been constantly amazed by the amount of love and support, not only from my family but also from my friends, most especially from my fans that I’ve been receiving. I’m most thankful for that. Life isn’t perfect but I always think that there is no shortage of opportunities to choose joy,” shares Bea.

2. TRAVELING TO COOL PLACES

As someone who loves to spend time with her family, Bea also finds joy in traveling across the globe with them. She even got an apartment in Madrid for her mom!

“I like going to cool places like Europe and I like layering (when it comes to) fashion. I like wearing jackets and coats,” answers Bea when asked about her weather preferences.

3. SLEEPING IN

And while we view her as someone who hustles a lot with so many projects and business ventures, Bea also reveals that she finds joy with sleeping in versus going out.

“Sleeping in because I don’t get to do that all the time. I always get up early because of work so I would say sleeping in. I’m excited to do that this holiday season,” shares Bea. “(I’m a) homebody and I like fixing my house.”

4. BUYING AND GIVING GIFTS

Like Christmas personified, Bea also admits to prefer buying and giving gifts rather than receiving some: “That’s my love language: I like showering my loves ones with gifts, especially my mom… I don’t care kahit na maliit lang yung gift sa akin. It doesn’t really matter to me because I have everything that I need.”

True enough, Bea also has a gift for her fans this Christmas: Good news and a big year-end promo straight from her latest brand endorsement with OPPO. They’re inviting Filipinos to Choose Joy and make the most out of the ongoing sale that will run until January 5, 2023. Shoppers who purchase any OPPO smartphone or OPPO Pad will be entitled to one (1) free spin on OPPO’s roulette for a chance to win special prizes like 32GB memory cards, Php1000 vouchers for Enco Buds2, Php700 vouchers for other IoT devices, and more. A total of Php100 million worth of gifts will be given away to select buyers, giving them more reasons to be jolly this Christmas!

Along with this, users can double the joy by going online, registering on the My OPPO App, and joining the daily raffle activities for a chance to win exclusive gifts. Throughout the promo period, lucky winners will be able to take home brand new OPPO smartphones like OPPO Reno8 5G, OPPO A96, OPPO A77s and OPPO A17, discount vouchers of OPPO Reno6 5G Series worth up to Php1000, and other gadgets and appliances.

5. CHOOSING OPPO

Of course, Bea is also happy about the recent endorsement! She even shared photos taken straight from her OPPO phone during her media appearance.

“It’s a no-brainer. It’s a brand that continuously offers innovative technology – launching products that are not only durable, value for money, but also performs well,” exclaims Bea as she shows off her OPPO A77s in a stunning Sunset Orange color. “I’m very happy to be joining my new OPPO family and just in time for Christmas, the season for joy and giving! I felt the warm welcome from OPPO from the beginning. It’s a brand that I truly believe in because it champions both function and style which, as a performer, is a must.”
