PRECIOUS Lara Quigaman  shrugs off rumors that Willie Revillame is wooing her.

Some months back, she was booted out of Wowowee because she brought along her boyfriend to their show in the United States.

The buzz was that Willie had his eyes set on Precious but since she was spoken for already, it didn’t sit too well with Willie.
She’s now back in the show every Saturday. Now that she has split up with her longtime BF, will she give Willie (who has broken up with his GF Nadine) a chance? “Sometimes it’s hard to tell when he is serious,” says Lara. “Or when he’s just doing it for the show. I treat Willie like a kuya and nothing else so I think the love angle is not possible.” Will Willie’s charms make the impossible possible?

Tiff over ‘rackets’
John Estrada and Roxanne Guinoo had a li’l tiff during the taping of Everybody Happy. John reprimanded Roxanne because she had to leave for another commitment. John told her that all of them should be dedicated to their show and not leave for other “rackets” until their taping is over.

Roxanne snapped back at him. “Pag ikaw may ibang commitment na kasabay ng taping, we wait naman for you to come back.”

Hopefully next taping, cooler heads will intervene so their sitcom won’t turn into Everybody Angry.

Better safe
Jake Cuenca got bruised during a shoot. It was only a minor injury yet he demanded to be brought to the hospital. “Galos lang na pwede i-Betadine,” said a kibitzer. “Pero nagpa-rush pa din sa ER.”
Jake would rather be safe than sore and sorry.

Expecting again
Tintin Bersola-Babao is infanticipating again! Her adorable daughter Anya is already 4 years old. She and Julius are hoping for a baby boy this time. I teased Tin. “See what your Belo ad can do! Sexy leads to pregnancy.”

We both had a good laugh. Motherhood is something Tintin wears so well.

Without Pops
Jomari Yllana approached me as soon as I arrived at the wake of Tito Dougs. Sadness was written all over his face so to lighten the mood, I teased him. “Has Pops visited?” He smiled. “Yesterday but I wasn’t around. She sang daw at the Mass.” I ribbed him some more. “Sinadya mo ba na wala ka dito para di kayo mag-abot ni Pipay?”  Before he could reply, the paparazzi and TV cameras were hounding us so we just hugged. Between good friends, explanations are unnecessary anyway.
