Karylle versus Marian: The True Story

The Buzz aired a special report entitled “Karylle Versus Marian” highlighting the controversial issue of the year.

It was very clever of Boy Abunda, or the writer of The Buzz for that matter, when he asked Karylle if Marian is pregnant. That’s when the love triangle controversy between Karylle, Dingdong Dantes and Marian exploded. In a span of one week, it became the biggest news in pinoy showbizlandia. And the Buzz made a special report chronicling the issue as it started on their show last Monday, to the Desperadas 2 press conference (when Marian Rivera broke into tears) to interviews on the stars involved.

The videos below presented both sides with special emphasis about the negative perception of the press towards Marian Rivera. It was pointed out that the hottest kapuso star is perceived as “gimikera”, “magaspang ang ugali” and “paawa effect.”

But during the show's POV segment, hosts Boy Abunda, Kris Aquino, and Ruffa Gutierrez made their remarks coming from a very reliable sources - Kris as bestfriend to Marian's manager Popoy Caritativo, and Ruffa as Marian's co-star in the movie Desperadas 2 and also present during the presscon where Marian answered the pregnancy issue.

Dingdong Dantes Finally Speaks About the Marian Rivera Pregnancy Issue

Dingdong Dantes finally breaks his silence and told the press about his reaction on Karylle's "controversial smile" which lead to Marian Rivera's "pitiful cry" on the presscon of MMFF movie Desperadas 2.

Dingdong said he had a small talk with Marian after the incident and advice her to ignore and better buried the issue in rest. He also told Marian to be ready and expect a more severe issues coming on their way. So she better not the be sensitive about it.

"Basta ako, I’ll just stick to the truth. Lalabas din naman kung ano ang totoo." said Dingdong

Dingdong also said he sometimes get annoyed especially when his name was drag on the pregnancy issue but also said there is no truth about it at all, "Ganu’n naman talaga. eh. Kaya ako, hinahayaan ko na lang."

But when asked about the true status of his relationship with Marian, Dingdong only said "Ayokong maglagay ng label, eh. Basta, okay kami at kung ano man ito tutuloy, bahala na. Basta, masaya naman kaming dalawa.”

Marian Rivera's Official Statement on the Karylle-Dingdong-Marian Love Triangle

Right after Dingdong Dantes and Karylle admitted in public that they finally put an end to their relationship and that Marian Rivera is not the reason for their break-up, rumors about Marian being the third party and the reason for the break-up still persist.

In an official statement sent by Marian's camp to Showbiz Central last Sunday, November 9, Marian said that she is hurt by the accusation but still insist that she has nothing to do with the break-up.

Here is Marian's official statement:

"Aaminin ko na po na naaapektuhan na ako sa mga usap-usapan na ako ang dahilan ng breakup nina Dingdong at Karylle. Please lang po, huwag naman sanang gano'n.

"Kahit ako o kahit sino siguro sa atin, walang makakaalam, makakaunawa, at higit sa lahat walang dapat manghimasok sa pinagdadaanan nilang dalawa. Silang dalawa lang po ‘yan. At kahit ako nga, walang nalalaman sa totoong namagitan sa kanilang dalawa.

"Ang katatagan po ng kahit anong relasyon ay nakabase sa kung paano kayo makisama sa isa't isa, at kung paano ninyo haharapin ang mga pagsubok. Puwede kayong mag-fail o puwede kayong mag-stick together lalo. Nasa inyo na po ‘yon, di ba?

"Kung tunay at wagas ang pagtititnginan ninyo sa isa't isa, at you can stand the test of time, hindi kayo maghihiwalay. Pagsubok kasi ‘yan. Walang isa na may kasalanan o masisisi pag nagkahiwalay. Alam ko po ‘yan dahil naranasan ko din kasi.

"Masakit mapagbintangan, lalo na't hindi totoo. Sinasabi ko nang hayagan, wala po kaming serious relationship ni Dingdong. Ang meron kami ay isang magandang love team, isang magandang samahan, na salamat sa Diyos ay naging effective naman at tinanggap ng mga nanonood sa amin. Gusto ko pong alagaan at ipagpatuloy ‘yan hangga't binibigyan kami ng pagkakataon.

"Maraming salamat."

One True Love - Movie Preview

Iza Calzado, together with the most sought-after, successful, and I must say "controversial" loveteam of today - Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, will star in GMA Films and Regal Entertainment's "One True Love".

Synopsis: Medical intern named Migs (Dingdong Dantes) will have to deal with the conflict between his heart and his mind. After three years of courtship, he is about to get married to Joy (Marian Rivera), a nurse who works in the same hospital as him. However, days before the wedding, his first love Bella (Iza Calzado) returns to the Philippines. The balikbayan is still single and still in love with Migs, whom she broke up with in the past when her family migrated to the United States for their restaurant business.

The women in Migs’s life try to get along with each other but knowing that they are both in love with the same man give rise to feelings of jealousy and envy. When Migs gets into an accident, he develops lacunar amnesia, a type pf amnesia that blocks off time periods from one’s memory. In his case, it blocks off the three years that he was in love with Joy and leaving him with memories of Bella.

The movie also stars Jennica Garcia, Pinky Marquez, Bianca King, Tessie Tomas, Boots Anson Roa, and Chinggoy Alonzo.

One True Love is written by Maryo J. delos Reyes and directed by Mac Alejandre. Coming to theaters nationwide on November 19, 2008.

The Buzz Hosts Had Something to Say About the Dingdong-Karylle-Marian Love Triangle

Amidst the issue that real-life sweethearts Dingdong Dantes and Karylle have broken up because of Marian Rivera, the three have yet to speak to confirm what the real score is. Dingdong and Karylle continue to deny that they have decided to separate ways, with the actor even clarifying that Marian has nothing to do with the issue. News reports say that Marian and constant leading man Dingdong have developed feelings towards each other and the actress' recent breakup with her non-showbiz boyfriend has given way for the two celebrities to pursue their alleged romance.

Meanwhile, on the Points, Opinions and Violent Reactions (POV) segment of The Buzz last Sunday, November 2, the three hosts Boy Abunda, Kris Aquino and Ruffa Gutierrez all shared bits of information in an effort to solve the puzzle. Ruffa went on to say that staff members from her previous film, Desperadas, who are now also the staff of Dingdong and Marian's upcoming movie said that the two are very close on the set. "Sila (staff) ang nagkukuwento na super-sweet daw ang dalawa kahit na walang press," Ruffa revealed.

Kris on the other hand shared that her friend Popoy Caritativo, who is also Marian's manager, told her that the actress and Dingdong aren’t a couple yet. "Hindi sila ni Dingdong pa," Kris quoted Popoy. Popoy also told Kris that Marian is currently happy now, to which Ruffa interjected, "'Yung staff ng Desperadas said, si Marian daw has never been happier in her life." However Kris emphasized there’s nothing wrong with being happy but not at the cost of someone getting hurt. Kris also said that Marian has indeed broken up with her boyfriend because of a commercial deal he did not approve of.

Boy on his part said there shouldn’t be any difficulty for Karylle and Dingdong to say if the relationship has ended and it would definitely simplify their problems. Boy also added another juicy tidbit to the topic by saying he has talked to Marian's ex-boyfriend and he was told that there is no truth in rumors saying that he made Marian chose between him and the project.

The three hosts end the topic by saying that hopefully the issue between the couple and Marian be cleared up soon. Kris even added that she’ll ask Popoy if The Buzz can interview Marian to get her side on the controversy.

Blind Item: Is That You, Marian Rivera?

Kahit pala ang mga dating kasa-kasama ng isang young actress noon ay hindi na sumasama sa kanya ngayon. Kusa nang dumidistansiya ang mga taong yun dahil nakikita na nila kung paano naglulunoy sa isang basong tubig ang young actress, humiwalay na raw ang magkabila niyang paa sa lupa, inapuntahan na raw siya ng kayabangan.

Laging nagdedenay ang young actress tungkol sa mga kuwento ng kayabangan na ikinakabit sa kanya, gawa-gawa lang daw yun ng kampo ng kanyang mga kalaban, hanggang ngayon daw ay tulad pa rin siya ng dati.

Pero hindi ganun ang nakikita ng mga dati niyang nakakasama, talagang lumobo na ang kanyang ulo, maangas na raw talaga ngayon ang batang aktres na ito.

“Kahit naman hindi siya magsalita, malalaman mo na agad na maldita siya. Sa pagtingin-tingin pa lang niya, alam mo nang nagbago siya, ibang-iba na talaga siya ngayon.

“Kung dati, e, parati lang siyang nakayuko, sumobra naman ang confidence niya ngayon, talagang ang feeling niya, e, sikat na sikat na siya at ang galing-galing na niyang artista,” sabi ng aming source.

Nung minsan palang puntahan ng kanyang mga dating kaklase sa set ng kanyang tele-serye ang babaeng ito ay umiral na naman ang kanyang kamalditahan nung mag-alisan na ang mga dumalaw sa kanya.

Sabi raw ng young actress, “Anong reunion? Bakit, kaya ba nilang bayaran ang talent fee ko? Alam ba nila kung magkano ang TF ko sa bawat appearance ko?

“Appearance lang yun, ha? Wala pa akong gagawin nun, hi and hello lang yun sa mga fans! Sinabihan ko na sila, sobrang busy ako, sinabi ko rin sa kanila na pati ang pagtulog ko ngayon, by appointment na!” pagmamalaki pa ng young actress sa mga tao sa dressing room niya.

Sosyal! Ganun na ba talaga kabilib sa kanyang sarili ang young actress na ito? Pumasok na ba talaga sa utak niya ang mga naririnig niyang tili at palakpak ngayon?

“Ang sarap-sarap niyang lunurin sa dagat, dapat siyang tampalin ng mga siyokoy at sirena, sa totoo lang,” napapailing pang komento ng aming impormanteng tumiwalag na sa grupo ng young actress.
