TJ Trinidad stars in a lighthearted, comedic TVC

Television’s newest heartthrob TJ Trinidad, who stars opposite Kristine Hermosa in ABS-CBN’s hit drama series Gulong ng Palad, describes his dream girl in detail in the latest commercial of Jack ‘n Jill Tivoli chocolates.

“I’m not picky, I just want someone nice, smart, has long curly hair with blue highlights …she’s into cross-stitching, has a cute mole on her left cheek…and girls with guys’ names!” says TJ in the Tivoli television commercial (TVC).

Sweet surrender…a scene from Tivoli’s “Dreamgirl” commercial.

In the TVC, a girl nicknamed “Bong,” who is watching TJ on television, realizes that she fits his idea of a “dream girl.” She immediately seizes the opportunity, and chases her supposed destiny. Thus, the succeeding scenes that transpire range from the romantic to the downright hilarious.

“We’re actually looking at the funny possibilities that could happen if a fan finds out that she fits TJ’s descriptions of a ‘dream girl,’” shares director Matthew Rosen. “The commercial will definitely elicit laughs from the viewers.”
