THE STORY BEHIND DJ MO TWISTER'S "UGLY" REMARK
Pagbabahagi ni Mo, ginawa niya ang komento noong pang 1990’s habang naglalaro sila ng isang game.
“I think what happened was we were doing the ‘ugly-version of which celebrity.’
“‘Tapos, di ba, binanggit ko na 'I'm the ugly version of Matt Damon.'
“’Tapos nag-text ka sa akin."
Tugon naman ni Kaye, “Nag-text ako sa iyo. Sabi ko, ‘Ako, Mo... sinong ugly version ako?’”

Doon na umano sinabi ni Mo na si Kaye ang “ugly version” ni Iza.
Tinanong ni Mo si Kaye kung nasaktan ba ito sa kanyang naging sagot dito noon.
Ayon naman kay Kaye, “No. Not at all.
“Actually, na-flatter pa nga ako kasi I really find Iza very pretty.
“So, nung sinabi mong 'ugly version ka ni Iza Calzado,' sabi ko, ‘Oh, wow. Sige, sige... I’ll accept that.”
