New column: Actor vs Actor

Jennylyn Mercado versus Alessandra de Rossi and Ryza Cenon? Everyone was tense on Alessandra De Rossi’s first taping day on Super Twins because of the controversy that she and cast member Jennylyn Mercado were involved in last year. But the tension was for nothing when the two didn’t even meet on set! Jennylyn had already finished her scenes and had been gone for more than an hour before Alessandra arrived. But was their scene scheduling planned because of the tension between the two? “No!" was Alex’s vehement reply. “Wala akong pakialam kung sino ang ka-eksena ko, kasi nagtatrabaho naman ako nang maayos. And sana ‘wag rin isipin ng mga tao na ginagawa ko ‘to para manggulo." “Hindi naman siguro kami mag-aaway sa set," Jennylyn answered. “Hindi naman siguro ganoon kakitid ang mga utak namin para mag-away kami sa set." And if that wasn’t enough, the rivalry between Jennyln and Ryza Cenon was also brought up! According to some sources, the supposed making up that happened between the two StarStruck Ultimate Female Survivors didn’t really happen, and the two continue to snub each other! “Ay, hindi totoo ‘yan," was Ryza’s response. She continued that it wasn’t true that they don’t greet each other behind the cameras. Ryza told us that they’re fine now, though they’re no longer as close as before. “Kusa kaming nagbatian. So, ‘yun yung sinasabi ko sa inyo dati na ‘wag pilitin kung ayaw. Basta mangyayari at mangyayari ‘yun." Ara Mina versus Aiko Melendez, Polo Ravales? And in an S-Files exclusive, Ara Mina talks to Paolo Bediones about what Aiko Melendez had said about her plans to run for office. “Hindi ko na lang pinapansin ang mga unsolicited advice," Ara Mina replied. “Makakapagdecision naman ako ng sarili ko. And, one more thing, ang pagpasok naman talaga sa politika ay hindi madali, so kailangan mong pag-isipan ng maraming beses. Hindi kailangan pabigla-bigla ang desisyon mo. At kaya hindi ako tumakbo para mas (mabigyan ng) full support namin ang dad ko." Paolo also asked Ara about the Polo Ravales interview in which the actor confirmed that their relationship was totally over. “He’s just telling the truth," Ara said, confirming what the actor had said. As for why he was the one who spoke first, Ara continued, “Siguro na-ambush interview siya kasi hindi rin ako naka-attend ng press (conference) ng Lupin." “I’ll be honest, hindi kami nag-uusap lately," Ara confessed. “I’m trying to reach him. Sabi ko, at least maghiwalay kami ng maayos. Kasi small things lang yung pinag-aawayan namin. Parang ayaw niyang makipag-usap. Wala naman akong ginagawa. Siguro medyo affected lang siya sa mga lumalabas na issues. Kasi nagtext siya sa akin na sorry kung nadadamay daw ako sa mga issues na lumalabas (tungkol) sa kanya." - iGMA
