8 Philippine Showbiz Today June 8 - 21, 2017 Jan. 22-Feb.7, 2015 Maine deactivates “Twitter “ account Maine Mendoza wasn’t very specific when she wrote “Enough with the foul words, guys” on her Twitter account – which she has deactivated – but it’s obvious she got alarmed over the vilification that comedian Sef Cadayona reaped from diehard “Aldub” fans. They bashed him vehemently just because he’s being linked to her and they accused him of stealing Maine away from screen partner Alden Richards.  Someone very close to Sef told us it’s really not true he has a romantic relationship with Maine. “We tell him nga na kung ganyan na rin lang ang sitwasyon, tuluyan na niya,” said our informer. “Pero ayaw Sharon is back on the concert scene Megastar Sharon Cuneta is back in the concert scene with her latest US tour kicking off this June. In our interview with her, she explained her posts on social media that are sometimes misunderstood by netizens. “I treat my FB page as a blog,” she said, “it’s like my journal. Parang nang mauso ‘yun, some people forget that you’re also human. Lalo kapag artista ka.” The singer-actress also cleared one of her posts concerning her finances. “Kasi sinulat ko rin ito, aba iba na naman ang interpretation. Hindi po ako bankrupt! Ganito lang po, nagkagulo gulo lang ang schedule ng cash flow,” she shared. Sharon also revealed she is currently wearing her father’s wedding ring as a source of strength and inspiration. “This is my dad’s wedding ring and my mom’s name is written inside,” she stated, “Whenever I want to feel close to him, sinusuot ko ito minsan [at] inaaway ko siya.”  On the news that Liza Soberano will play Darna, Sharon, who also played Darna in the ‘90s, commented: “I really love Liza Soberano, I knew before pa, alam mo naman dito (Star Cinema) kami-kami din nagkakaalaman, but honestly maka Liza ako and my kids, they really love Liza.” The actress also revealed she is gearing up for her comeback movie with a new leading man. “September daw ang shooting. Nasayang nga ang taon ko sa paghihintay,” she confessed. “The right word ‘kaka-paasa’ – hindi ng Star Cinema ha,” she quickly added. “Parang natapon ang buong taon ko kasi paiba-iba. So sana from the begining palang nalaman na natin na hindi pala. Ngayon, my new leading man, who I’m just too happy to start the movie with, has to finish his teleserye first here (ABS-CBN) so I have to wait till September.” Currently, she is filming her first Cinemalaya entry, her first indie movie. “I’m very proud of it my first ever indie film, if you will not consider ‘Crying Ladies’ as an indie film,” she said, “My Cinemalaya film, which I’m so honored to be doing, is directed by Mes De Guzman and which I also co-produce. It’s called ‘Ang Pamilyang Hindi Lumuluha,’ a feel-good movie.”● - Malaya niya kasi ang mas gusto niya talagang mangyari, magkabalikan sila ni Andrea Torres after mag-break up sila some months ago. Kaso ayaw na talaga ni Andrea kasi even she, naniniwalang si Sef at si Maine na talaga ngayon.”  Sef himself insisted to press people visiting the set of “Meant to Be,” where he plays Barbie Forteza’s brother, that he and Maine are just good friends. “Bawal ba kahit makipagkaibigan lang?” he asked. “Kaibigan ko rin naman si Alden Richards kasi madalas kaming nagkakasamang tatlo sa ‘Eat Bulaga.’ Hindi lang kami kundi pati ‘yung staff ng show at kasama rin sina Sheena Halili and Juancho Trivino. Lumabas man kami, marami kami, never na kaming dalawa lang. Kung totoong kami nga, aaminin ko naman.” This last statement of Sef, of course, is doubtful. Because he never admitted it when he was on with Andrea Torres for almost four years. He only finally admitted it when they have already broken up, so this makes Sef’s credibility somewhat questionable, right?●
