Jericho gets first international acting award
It has been said that "good things happen to those who wait." Indeed, if there's one local celebrity who can attest to this, it's Kapamilya actor Jericho Rosales.
The 31-year-old actor was recently given recognition for his "Outstanding Achievement in Filmmaking Acting" as "Victor" in the international feature film "Subject: I Love You" at the Newport Beach Film Festival in California. It was Jericho's first international award, a milestone that he is extremely grateful for.
"Thank You, Father! You did it again! Your ways are just amazing!!! Thank You for teaching me patience and how to trust in You! You are just full of surprises! I know now. It's all about time and purpose. Your time,my purpose. Let's go! Game! I love you!!!," an ecstatic Jericho expressed using his Twitter account last Saturday, May 7.

Shot entirely in the Philippines, Radiant Studios and Tectonic Film's "Subject: I Love You," a movie based on the "love bug" virus, was directed by Francis dela Torre, a Los Angeles based Filipino director.
