MANILA — Matteo Guidicelli was candid in admitting that his girlfriend, Sarah Geronimo, was a determining factor in his big switch from ABS-CBN’s Star Magic to Viva Artists Agency, the pop star’s home.

Guidicelli, 28, formalized his transfer to the talent management arm of Viva Entertainment on Friday, after eight years with Star Magic.

“It wasn’t an easy decision, but it was something very important for myself as an individual,” Guidicelli told reporters after the contract-signing. “Nagpapasalamat ako sa Star Magic talaga for all their effort, all their love, all their support. Without them, I wouldn’t be here also.”

Guidicelli, whose breakout role was via the 2010 fantaserye “Agua Bendita,” clarified that while he is now an artist of Viva, his home network remains ABS-CBN.

Asked whether Geronimo was one of the reasons he signed up with Viva Artists Agency, Guidicelli said: “Of course, Sarah is a part of it also. This is one of the best decisions I’ve [made], not just me, but my family also. We came to the conclusion that this is the best place for me.”

Geronimo, 30, entered showbiz in 2003 after winning Viva’s “Star for a Night” singing competition. Throughout her 15-year career, the superstar has been under the management of Viva Artists Agency.

“I was having discussions with Sarah also. We felt like it’s time that we’re in one boat together, one ship together, for our future together,” he said.

After having previously avoided doing projects with Geronimo, Guidicelli said he is now open to collaborating with his girlfriend, possibly through a recording as music is what the actor hopes to prioritize with his latest career move.
