Coverboys member Jon Avila told the media that he couldn't do a long interview because he still had to memorize his spiels for Lucy Torres-Gomez's Shall We Dance, which was taped on April 24 at The Tides in Boracay.
Richard Gomez worked with Marilen Nuñez of Len Plus to put up the reunion of celebrity golfers in Boracay. It took them almost eight months to organize the 14th Goma Cup: A Reunion.
When Martin Nievera received the trophy for being the first runner-up in Celebrity Class C, people started shouting, "Kiss! Kiss!," which both Martin and Richard Gomez gamely did for fun.
Actress Glydel Mercado placed second runner- up in Celebrity Class B. Upon receiving the trophy, she was teased by her fellow golfers who were saying, "Iniwan mo kasi si Tonton kaya maganda ang performance mo!"
Richard Gomez says that the highlight of the third day of Goma Cup was when his best buddy John Estrada, won as the overall champion of the tournament.
