WHAT can Dingdong Dantes say about the alleged sex video of him with Antoinette Taus?

"I’ve seen it at matagal na ‘yun," he says. "Ewan kung saan nahalungkat ng mga taong nagkakalat nito ngayon. Luma na talaga as it was taken noong kami pa ni Toni and that was years ago. It’s not a sex video as we were just kissing. Nakakatawa nga dahil nadagdagan na. It’s the real reason daw why Karylle and I broke up, which is ridiculous."

What can he say about Marian Rivera’s very first sexy pictorial on the March cover of Cosmo?

"Okay, no doubt na kaya naman niya mag-two piece like what she’s wearing there. Sexy talaga ang dating. I’m proud of her."

The story of "Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang" gets more absorbing this week as the dark past of Marian as Proserfina is slowly revealed. She harbors a big grudge against her mom Selena (Jackielou Blanco) who left her and her brother Ulysses (Mart Escudero) when they were still very young. To survive, she got involved in the syndicate of Rado (Paolo Contis) at a very young age. Rado is very abusive of her. Dingdong as Homer collaborates with his cousin who works with the NBI to have Rado arrested. He tries to get inside Rado’s lair just to be able to talk to Proserfina.

His mom, Hera (Carmi Martin), tries to help Homer’s younger sister (Jackie Rice) who married a poor guy, Ruel (Kiel Rodriguez), by giving Ruel work as a messenger in their company.

It’s reported that Rado is killed so his man Wangko (Jack Rodrigo) tries to kill the whole family of Proserfina. But Homer saves Rado’s life and they become friends.

Mark Anthony Fernandez says his mom, Alma Moreno, is definitely marrying Mayor Fahad Salik of Marawi City on April 9. "As her eldest son, I’ll be the one to take her to the altar, just like when she had her wedding kay Tito Joey Marquez," he says.

Since it’ll be a Muslim wedding, does this mean his mom has converted to Islam?

"Sa pagkaalam ko, hindi naman. I don’t know the details of the wedding yet kaya wala akong mai-share sa inyo about that."

How’s his future step-dad?

"I met him noong New Year. Okay naman siya. Hindi totoong tutol ang family niya sa mom ko. He’s a few years younger than my mom at sabi nga ng mom ko, he’s tall, dark and handsome. I’m really happy na tinanggap niya ang mom ko kahit may mga anak na. I think he’s seriously in love with her and he looks very responsible. I can see namang masaya ang mom ko sa kanya and I’m also happy for her."

A lot of people were curious when he admitted in the "Don’t Lie to Me Segment" of "Showbiz Central" last Sunday that he and his wife Melissa were having marital problems. Some quarters quickly concluded his wife is jealous of Sunshine Dizon, one of his leading ladies in "All About Eve."

"No, walang kinalaman si Sunshine at hindi naman selos ang dahilan. At kung anuman yun, na-solve na namin at okay na kami uli ngayon. Sinabi ko naman noong it’s just a minor issue nanormal na nangyayari sa mga mag-asawa."

After a doing a telefantasya like "Luna Mystika," Mark is glad to be doing serious drama in "All About Eve" that started airing last night. "Dito, walang special effects at mga engkanto. Realistic drama ito about relationships at maganda ang role ko as the guy na pag-aagawan nina Sunshine at Iza Calzado."

Jean Garcia is so thankful to GMA-7. "Right after ‘Gagambino,’heto nasa ‘All About Eve’ agad ako at ang ganda ng role koas Katrina, ang babaeng inapi-api ni Richard Gomez at ng ina niyang si Celia Rodriguez," she says.

After her breakup with Polo Ravales, her daughter Jennica also broke up with Mart Escudero. Is it a case of like mother, like daughter and is it true she’s sore at Mart?

"No, unang-una hindi naman ako nakikialam sa personal love affairs ng anak ko. Nagkita na nga kami ni Mart sa GMA at nagbeso pa siya sa’kin. Nag-break naman daw sila ng maayos, so walang reason for me na magalit sa kanya. Hindi naman niya binugbog ang anak ko gaya noong kay Rihanna. If that happened, ibang usapan na ‘yun. Kung anuman ang dahilan ng breakup nila ni Jennica,labas na ako ru’n. I can see naman that my daughter is happy sa buhay at career niya ngayon, so I don’t even ask questions about her lovelife. Nagbakasyon nga lang siya sa Bangkok then nakipag-bonding with friend like Isabel Oli, Glaiza de Castro and Nadine Samonte sa Boracay kasi tapos na ang taping niya for ‘Dear Friend’ nila ni Mart. Nakikita ko sa anak kong hindi love life ang priority niya as of now kundi career. Enjoy rin siya being unattached kasi nagagawa niyang gusto na hindi na kailangang magpaalam pa muna sa BF. Lagi kong sinasabi sa kanyang huwag gumaya sa’kin na maagang naging single mom. I told her na ang love life,darating din sa tamang panahon. In the meantime, narito kami ng kapatid niya to be with her as her family."

Someone saw her wearing an expensive ring during the presscon of "All About Eve" but she quickly hid it. Is it a gift from rumored boyfriend Jojo Manlongat?

"Kayo talaga, ang bilis ng mata n’yo. Jojo is just a friend. Kaya ko namang bumili ng singsing for myself, a."

Carla Humpries made a special appearance at the presscon of JC and Annabelle to clear things up about the video shown on TV with her kissing Raymond Gutierrez. "I was shocked when I saw it saw newscast," she says. "I mean wala namang malisya ‘yun dahil smack lang, hindi namanlips to lips na laplapan, pero nalagyan ng ibang kulay at pinalaki angissue. My parents were bothered and asked me about it, so I had to explain it’s just a friendly kiss. Wala namang masama if Mon and I would kiss each other like that. Matagal na kaming friends. We’re very comfortable with each other kaya we’re sweet to each other. At saka we’re just having fun after dinner, malakas ang music at nagsasayawan. Hindi naman ako ‘yung tipo ng girl na pahahalik na lang basta kung kani-kanino. And if ever, wala namang problem doon kasi wala akong boyfriend at wala rin siyang girlfriend. Pero hindi niya ako nililigawan at all. Longtime friends lang talaga kami."

Annabelle says she has no objection if ever Raymond and Carla would be on. "Boto ako diyan kasi maganda na, galing pa sa good family, matino at magaling mag-English. Hindi siya basta-basta."

Robin Padilla is no longer elusive when he’s being asked about his brother Rustom, now known as BB Gandanghari. His other brothers are very vocal against BB’s decision to kill his former self as Rustom. What did he tell BB about this?

At the presscon of "Sundo," the first local horror film to be shown this year, he says he hasn’t seen BB since she got back from the US. "Nakikita ko lang siya sa TV at sa magazines. Gusto ko ngang magkita-kita na kaming lahat ng mga kapatid namin para makapag-usap-usap na ang lahat nang maayos tungkol sa bago niyang kalagayan. Para naman magkaunawaan na sila. Ilang beses ng pinaplano ang pagkikita naming lahat kaya lang busy rin kasi kami sa kanya-kanyang trabaho. Basta ako, tanggap ko na siya as he is, kunsaan siya masaya."

BB says she is celibate now. But in the event that she finds a boyfriend, will Robin be ready for this?

"Naku, hindi pa ako handang pag-usapan ‘yan. Isa-isa lang muna. Ayoko ring magbigay ng kahit anong statement diyan at baka may masabi akong hindi maganda makasakit pa ako ng damdamin. Kung magkikita man kami ni BB, hindi ‘yung love life niya ang pag-uusapan namin. Ni hindi bubuksan ‘yan at baka himatayin pa ako at ma-‘Sundo’ pa ako. Pero ‘yung anak kong si Queenie, excited talagang makipagkita sa kanya at magpapaturo raw sa kanya ng modeling."

JC de Vera turns 23 today, Tuesday, March 10, and it is not going to be a happy birthday as he’s currently in a state of confusion, feeling like he’s between the devil and the deep blue sea because of the war between his manager Annabelle Rama and GMA executive Wilma Galvante. He was at the last presscon of Annabelle but he hardly said a word. It was only later that he was able to express his own feelings.

"I just want to work, show my talent, and for the network to see my worth," he says. "I never thought things would come to this. Beforekasi, bago pa matapos ang isang show ko, meron na agad kasunod, from ‘Pati Ba Pintig ng Puso,’ ‘Pasan Ko ang Daigdig,’ ‘Babangon Ako’ and ‘La Lola.’ Ngayon, biglang wala akong ginagawa."

He’s hoping things would be threshed out between Annabelle and Wilma. But whatever happens, he says he’ll abide by the decision of his manager.

What’s his birthday wish?

"Wala. I just want peace of mind. Sana matapos na ito at makapagtrabaho na uli ako. As of now, parang gusto ko lang magpunta sa beach, be by myself to sort things out."

Happy birthday to our broadcaster friend Pia Hontiveros, host of ANC’s "Strictly Politics," who’s turning 28 tomorrow (okay, plus a couple of more years). Pia and her husband R’Win Pagkalinawan of the PNP are the president couple of our apostolate, Discovery Weekend of the Marriage Preparation Foundation, and they’re really indefatigable and so dedicated when it comes to rendering apostolic service. The Discovery Weekend just celebrated its 30th anniversary last weekend and they made sure no stone was left unturned to make it a huge success. They also just spearheaded a successful outreach program in Marikina in cooperation with Mayor Marides Fernando and MMDA chair Bayani Fernando who are also graduates of the DW. To Pia, Happy Birthday and many more to come!
