Kathryn Bernardo and Nadine Lustre both captivated at the ABS-CBN Ball 2025 apart AND together. You heard that right, the two box-office stars met each other to maximize their joint slay at the network’s annual event, which was held this year at the Solaire Resort North in Quezon City on April 4.

Kathryn and Nadine stunned individually at the red carpet before getting together to break the internet. Kathryn was an effortless beauty in a coral blush Anthony Ramirez gown that spoke for itself, free from beadwork or embellishments. Inspired by “soft, flowing silhouettes and understated glamour,” the frock gave Kathryn a dreamy and ethereal look.

Meanwhile, Nadine channeled Old Hollywood glamour in her breathtaking Rajo Laurel creation. She accessorized the sculptural, nautilus-inspired dress with an antique Art Deco necklace that dazzled with old-cut diamonds and blue sapphires. What a sight! Now place the two stars together and you’ve got a show-stealing power duo!

The pair happily posed for photos together at the event's Aivee Booth while conversing in between. They also took some snaps with their trusted skincare doctor, Dr. Aivee Teo.
But that’s not all, because in another clip taken outside the venue, the two were also seen hugging and once again having their pictures taken side-by-side.

Unsurprisingly, netizens were absolutely living for Kathryn and Nadine's interactions, with some even calling for Star Cinema and Viva to give the two a movie together.

Another user praised them for thriving in their individual careers and growing on their own terms. “Truly love how women are finally being seen as powerful in their own right, not as rivals in an endless comparison,” they wrote.
