Noong Biyernes, Abril 27, sa fashion show ng Oakley na ginanap sa NBC Tent sa The Fort, Taguig City, ay nakapanayam ng PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang beteranang aktres at dating Miss Universe na si Gloria Diaz.
Kasalukuyang naiipit sa intriga si Gloria dahil sa tampuhan diumano nila ng anak na si Isabelle, na nag-ugat daw sa pagsugod niya sa magazine pictorial ng dalagang anak.
Ani Gloria, “A, wala iyon!
"Siyempre me, I always approve of what she does and what she does [not].
“Yeah, sometimes we talk about things and we disagree in everything.
“Kami ni Belle, we disagree.
"Sabi ko sa kanya, ang uso ngayon coral ang lipstick, coral color. Sa kanya, ‘No. It’s always red.’
“Basta as mother-daughter, in every way we have our differences. Kahit sa pagme-makeup or expression or the way I pronounce words, so balewala iyon."
Totoo ba ang balitang humingi ng hiwalay na dressing room si Isabelle sa kanilang commercial shoot dahil ayaw siyang makasama nito?
“Oh, no, of course not. It’s not that we’re not nagpapansinan.
“We were so busy. Hectic!
"Ako nagpapaayos ng mukha, siya din nagpapaayos, alangan namang maghalikan pa kami doon, di ba?
“No [it’s not true]. We were so busy and I was in a separate room from my daughter but we just needed time for [ourselves].
“I mean, it’s not true. I don’t know where did that come from."
Nilinaw rin ni Gloria na hindi totoong inaway niya ang staff ng magazine.
“Ako, hindi ako nagtampo. Baka sila, ewan ko.
"Actually, wala naman akong balita.
“No naman, no. I don’t know nga why it’s nanganganak, e. Ewan ko.
“Wala naman, okay lang.
"And the owners [of the magazine] naman are Maricris and Iñigo Zobel, they’re friends naman of ours.
"Hindi naman, hindi naman [magkagalit]."
Pero totoo bang binawalan niya si Isabelle na mag-pose nang sexy para sa naturang magazine?
“Alam mo, I trust her. She can do what she wants. She’s 24 years old, di ba?
“Ang mommy ko, hindi naman nakialam sa ‘kin [noon]. O, buhay pa ako, di ba?
"Si Isabelle can do what she wants to do.
“E, iyong 20 years old ko nga, you know, my daughter nga 'pag may sinabi ako, ‘Ava, tie your hair. It’s so magulo.’ She would say, ‘Mom, chill.’
“E, 24 na nga si Belle, e, di ba? So she can do what she wants.
“Iyon nga lang, sometimes she asks for advice. When she was doing some kind of an ad she says, ‘I’m kind of nervous.’ I said, ‘Relax. Just concentrate on your line. Do your best,’ iyon lang.
“She always naman texts me and hindi naman kami nagkakaproblema."
ON ANNABELLE RAMA-AMALIA FUENTES ISSUE. Muli ring nagbigay ng pahayag si Gloria ukol sa pagkakadawit niya sa alitan nina Amalia Fuentes at Annabelle Rama kamakailan.
“A, yes, that’s very useless 'yang mga intri-intriga na 'yan.
“But I think that it’s really showbiz, e. Since time immemorial, di ba, meron ng konting intriga.
“I think people like it. People parang go on pa parang they’re getting into the news.
“Siguro it’s not entirely true, pero people like it."
WORKING WITH RUFFA GUTIERREZ. Hindi ba sila nagka-ilangan ni Ruffa Gutierrez, anak ni Annabelle Rama, sa set ng pelikula nilang The Mommy Returns nang dahil sa isyu?
“Of course kaibigan ko naman si Ruffa. Actually, wala namang nangyari, e.
“I think there was a misunderstanding at hindi naman ako kasali doon. I just happen to be a bystander, di ba, so wala, wala iyon."
Kumusta naman ang produksiyon ng bago niyang pelikula under Regal Films?
“Oh, yes! Don’t forget to watch. It’s very funny. I just dubbed it and I did not know it would come out funny.
“It’s not even hard sell and ang ganda, ang ganda. Cute din ang role ko."
Ano naman ang masasabi niya tungkol sa mga nakatrabaho niya sa pelikula?
“Well, Ruffa naman... I’ve known Ruffa for a long time, but Pokwang I was surprised.
“She is so talented, she’s so magaling.
"I mean, she’s so flexible. Magaling. I like to work with her.
“I love working on comedy. Kung puwede nga kahit television puro comedy, e.
“Pero mahirap mag-comedy. Madali magpaiyak.
"Sampalin mo lang iyan or something maiiyak agad ang tao, apihin mo lang iyong api, di ba?
“Pero iyong comedy, talagang timing is very important and the lines cannot be hard sell so napakahirap ng comedy." -- Demai G. Sunio-Granali, PEP
