It's been a week since EB Babe Lian Paz and Mark Herras called it quits. Yesterday, January 13, Lian guested live for the first time in Showbiz Central as she faced the Central Jury to answer questions about the breakup.
Lian is arguably the most popular member of EB Babes, an all-girl dance group which regularly performs in Eat Bulaga!, because of her revelations about her dark past and rumored links to some showbiz personalities, including Janno Gibbs. Lian, however, really caught the attention of many when she and Mark became an item. When the two broke up, news had it that Lian was cheating on Mark.
Since this was her first live interview, SC's Central Jury, DJ Mo Twister and Pia Guanio, started at the very top of Lian's long line of issues. First was about the "Hello Kitty" issue. Is it true that Janno's keepsake became the reason of her rift with Gladys Guevarra?
"Hindi po," Lian answered. "Hindi totoo yun. Kasi for me, wala naman akong tampo sa kanya and tapos na po yun."
What if she suddenly bumps into Gladys, would she say "Hello?"
"Of course!" answered Lian.
But the skeptical Mo Twister didn't believe her. He asked, "Yung dalawang ex mo, si Randolf [Stematelaky] at si Mark Herras ay may conflict daw hanggang ngayon. Hindi sila naghe-hello or hi. The reason behind that daw, e, pinag-sabay mo daw silang dalawa. Is that true?"
"It's a big NO," answered Lian.
Mo replied, "E, bakit hindi sila magkasundo?"
"I don't know," Lian wondered. "Siguro selos factor, but wala naman pagseselosan because that's my past. And siya [Mark] rin naman may past, so hindi na dapat pag-iiringan yun."
Pia, who was filling in for Rufa Mae Quinto on the Central Jury, asked if it's true that Mark broke up with her because of her friendship with a certain professional basketball player.
"No," Lian immediately answered. "I have friends na basketball players, pero hindi naman to the extent na lagi kaming nagkikita. Wala pong ganun. Actually, naaabala nga natin ang ibang tao na wala naman kinalaman sa breakup namin, katulad ni Dondon Hontiveros."
"Naabala? Paano mong masasabi na naaabala sila?" Pia asked.
Lian replied, "Siyempre, parang na-affected yung tao dahil napapasama siya sa issue ‘tapos may narinig ako from a friend na bakit nadamay pa siya [Hontiveros] sa issue."
"But that's on your side," Mo interjected. "E, side naman ni Mark, feeling mo ba na si Mark cheated on you? Do you think may ibang girl o third party sa side naman ni Mark?"
