Still looking for Mr. Right

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - For weeks now, people have been talking about Rhian Ramos and Mo Twister. Is she or isn’t she his new squeeze and the reason why he reportedly fetched her at Amsterdam airport?

Moments before she faced the cameras for her guesting in GMA 7’s reality dating show Take Me Out (the episode will be aired on Friday, July 2, 5 p..m.), Rhian finally broke her silence.

“The talks (about their romance) started when I went to Amsterdam and he went to Paris that same week. Mo was teasing Ruffa (Gutierrez) about a guy, so Ruffa also got a girl to tease him with. That girl happened to be me. No big deal.”

Did Mo fetch Rhian at the Amsterdam airport?

Rhian finds it preposterous.

“I’ve heard so many things about myself, that many people took my picture here and there,” she comments.

Rhian was so excited about putting a stop to talks linking her to Mo, she prepared her Filipino and British passports before she left her house to guest on GMA 7’s Showbiz Central.

The passports were supposed to show where Rhian was all the time people were accusing her and Mo of having a rendezvous in Europe.

It was too late when she found out she got into the GMA 7 studio without the passports in her bag.

As Showbiz Central host Raymond Gutierrez said, it would have been the perfect time to air her side.

And her side is, “Mo is my best friend among the guys in showbiz. We have been friends for years. As a DJ/reporter/TV personality, he is connected with so many people. He can help me out if needed and if I call him.”

Everything is now water under the bridge, now that Ruffa said sorry and Mo himself has clammed up.

Why has the usually talkative Mo suddenly turned mum?

“I just told him to stop talking about me in his show since I’m not with TV 5,” Rhian replies.

She’s as nonchalant about ex-boyfriend JC de Vera calling her an “eraser” during an interview aired on TV 5’s Paparazzi.

Rhian’s former partner in the defunct GMA 7 show La Lola told hosts Ruffa, Dolly Ann Carvajal and Cristy Fermin that he’d rather erase everything that happened between him and Rhian. Does that mean he and Rhian didn’t part as friends?

“If you define friendship as looking after each other’s welfare and asking how he or she is at the moment, we’re not friends,” replies Rhian.

But she doesn’t take it against him for calling her an “eraser.”

“People have given me worse names,” she explains.

No, Rhian didn’t cry over that remark. All she does is remember the good times she had with JC and the lessons she learned from him.

“ The first thing I learned from JC is how to trust someone. The second is how to adjust and the most recent lesson is how to forgive,” she says.

To prove that she has indeed forgiven JC, Rhian prefers to call him a “permanent marker.”

“He’s a nice guy,” she explains. “I feel deeply about him, and that’s the reason why I can’t turn my experience with him into something negative. Only the happy times remain. That’s why I see him as a permanent marker.”

Rhian has no room to feel bitter. Not when her dad advised her to be thankful for all the nice things they went through.

Her standards in looking for Mr. Right will not change.

“I still look for a gentleman because a gentleman is honest and decent. He’s not mean,” she reveals.

And she doesn’t mind being hurt (again), if need be.

“You see, that’s the whole point of existence,” Rhian goes on. “If I spend 60 years of my life full of failure and the last 10 years finally finding the guy I want to be with, that’s all I’ll ever need. OK na yon.”

For Rhian, hope springs eternal. That’s how she has survived the stones thrown at her all these years. That’s how she will continue to parry the blows showbiz – and life – may still bring her.
