The entertainment world is buzzing with concern over the sudden disappearance of rising VMX star Karen Lopez. The 21-year-old actress was last seen on Monday, May 5, and hasn’t been in touch with anyone since.
Karen’s manager, Lito De Guzman, shared that she was picked up from her condo in Quezon City by her boyfriend. After that, both of them vanished, no messages, no calls, and not even a single post on social media. For someone who usually stays active online, her silence is unsettling.
Things took a more serious turn when Karen failed to show up on Wednesday, May 7, for the final day of filming for the movie Maalikaya. Director Roman Perez Jr. said the team had to scramble to revise the script and push through with shooting in Upper Antipolo without her. According to him, Lito had even confirmed the night before that Karen would attend.
Worried about her safety, Karen’s mother went to the Quezon City Police and filed a report. Meanwhile, Direk Roman and some crew members decided to check on her at her condo. Despite knocking for about 30 minutes, there was no response. Security footage later confirmed that she had indeed left with her boyfriend.
Karen’s sudden absence came as a shock to many who’ve worked with her. She’s known on set for being professional and reliable. Some insiders believe her boyfriend may have played a part in her disappearance, especially since there were rumors he was against her appearing in bold or sexy films like Maalikaya.
Despite the setback, the film’s production has continued with the rest of the cast, including Jenn Rosa, Aliya Raymundo, Izza Watanabe, and Sheena Cole. But the mood remains heavy, with the hope that Karen is safe and will be found soon.
If you know anything about Karen Lopez’s whereabouts, please contact local authorities. Her family, friends, and fans are all anxiously waiting for answers.
