Precious Lara Quigaman clarifies why she was taken out of 'Wowowee' again Author: Napoleon Quintos Precious Lara Quigaman was supposed to make a comeback on Wowowee before she was pulled out again. The rumored reason for this was her relationship with actor-model Marco Alcaraz. At the thanksgiving dinner for May Bukas Pa, Lara revealed to ABS-CBN.com why her comeback didn't push through. " Hindi naman siguro sila (Wowowee) ganun kababaw para ibase nila 'yung kapasidad ng isang tao dahil lang may boyfriend siya o may dine-date. Ang sabi talaga sa akin babalik na ako as regular host. Inayos na nga 'yung papers ko kasi dapat kasama ako sa show nila sa Lake Tahoe yata. Na-sad talaga ako nung sinabi nila sa akin na hindi na matutuloy. Pero ang sabi nila sa akin cost cutting daw ang Wowowee ngayon. I understand naman." Lara admitted that she has been going out with Marco whom she met through common friend Valerie Concepcion. "We're friends and yes, we go out. Wala naman akong dapat itago. Single naman kami pareho. But also I'm not rushing into a serious relationship. Very recent lang 'yung breakup ko with my last boyfriend, four months ago. Three years naging kami. Ngayon I take my time. Hindi na ako bata para maglaro pa ng mga ganitong bagay." She added that she is the type of woman who takes relationships very seriously. " Para sa akin kapag pumapasok ako sa isang relationship umaasa ako na sa kasalan na ang tuloy. 'Yung last boyfriend umasa rin ako na kami na talaga. Hindi rin naman ako nakikipag-boyfriend kung alam kong walang pupuntahan 'yung relationship." The former Miss International also revealed her impressions of Marco. "So far naman I find him nice. Dati kasi maraming nagde-discourage sa akin, may mga sinasabing bad about him. Pero ngayon nakikita ko naman sa kanya na hindi totoo 'yun." Lara revealed that Marco has already met her mom who was still a bit apprehensive about Lara's new suitor. "One time nga naipit ako sa work so si Marco pa 'yung naghatid sa mom ko sa airport. Ganun ka-sweet si Marco. Pero alam mo naman ang typical na mother, laging 'no one is good enough for your daughter.' May fear siya na dahil artista si Marco e babaero. Mga ganun lang pero okay naman sila." When asked if she sees a good future with Marco, Lara jokingly answered, " Lagi namang May Bukas Pa, ha ha ha! Sa ngayon siya lang naman ang dine-date ko." There were also rumors that Lara was being courted by Wowowee main man Willie Revillame, but these were quickly dismissed. She said that she hasn't talked to Willie about her relationship with Marco. " Hindi ko alam kung alam na niya, ha ha ha! Hindi ako nakakapagkwento sa kanya ng mga ganitong bagay." Source: ABS-CBN Interactive |
