Column: Check It Out

DENNIS Trillo finally came out in the open about the rumor that he impregnated beauty queen Carlene Aguilar who's now based in the US. A source told us the ex-lovers had a chance to talk to each other when Dennis had a show in New York.

Dennis' new teleseries, "Zaido: Pulis Pangkalawakan" is enjoying good ratings in the primetime block. If Dennis is afraid that being a father, will affect his career, we daresay, he has nothing to be afraid of. Remember, Aga Muhlach was already a father when his career zoomed to greater heights. Then, Piolo Pascual endeared his fans more when he admitted that he has a son named Iñigo. It's the same thing with Marvin Agustin and Diether Ocampo who are still good copies enjoying immense popularity.

Becoming a young father isn't a liability. In fact, it adds to one's machismo. And besides, a good actor is a good actor, no matter what. Just be honest.

PINKY SAYS KAREL ISN'T PREGNANT

MEANWHILE, it was no less than Pinky Marquez, mother of Karel Marquez, who talked on national television to deny the rumor that her daughter is pregnant,the reason why she's quitting "Zaido. " If you look at Karel, you would notice that she has really gained weight. That perhaps has what triggered the rumor.

The real reason why Karel quit, according to Pinky, is her poor stamina against overnight shooting. Karel, who is also a very good TV host, will resume her studies abroad.

But fans insist she is preggy. Well, let's find out after a few months.
