Angeline more confident after lipo, cosmetic surgery

MANILA – Angeline Quinto justified the cosmetic procedures she underwent last year as they helped boost her confidence.

Quinto explained that she has grown tired of being teased about her sad-looking eyes.

“Pinagawa ko 'yung sa mata ko kasi halos lahat ng nakakatrabaho ko, napapansin nilang medyo malungkot ang mata ko kahit hindi naman ako malungkot. Minsan nao-offend na ako kasi feeling nila, ayaw ko daw silang kasama. Nagsasawa na ako sa ganun. Para medyo maging mas masaya tignan ang mata ko,” she said in an interview with ANC's "Belo Beauty 101" which was aired on Sunday.

Aside from the "enhancements" on her face, Quinto said she also approached celebrity doctor Vicki Belo to perform liposuction on her arms and back.

“Gusto ko naman magpa-lipo sa likod kasi medyo nahihirapan ako kapag 'yung mga soot kong mga blouse, fitted. Minsan nahihirapan kami kasi sa likod medyo may taba na lumalabas. Naisip ko naman, if lipo, mas mabilis na mawawala,” she said.

“Sa arms din po. Kasi sa TV parati nilang napapansin na mataba akong tignan kahit sa personal naman hindi. Siguro kapag nagpa-lipo ako, mas malaking tulong na mas maganda ang kalabasan ng itsura ko sa telebisyon,” she added.

Asked why she is open about her cosmetic surgeries unlike other celebrities, Quinto said she sees the move as helpful to her career.

“Actually nung umpisa natakot din ako… Sobrang talagang mas lumakas ang loob ko na makapagsuot ng magagandang blouse. Hindi na ako mahihiya sa ibang tao na humarap kahit wala na akong make-up sa mata,” she said.

Apart from the cosmetic procedures, Quinto stressed that she also did her part by working out and going on a diet which resulted in a weight loss of over 20 pounds.

Vicki, Hayden 'unofficially' together again

MANILA, Philippines – Celebrity doctor Vicki Belo and former boyfriend, doctor-turned-actor Hayden Kho are “unofficially” together again, according to a report published on Sunday.

In an interview with Kapamilya talent Bianca Gonzalez for her column in the Philippine Star, Belo also said she “sincerely” loves Kho.

“I don’t know if we’ll be together but I know that I really love him sincerely,” Belo told Gonzalez. “Now he’s so strong. If I left his life today, he would be really okay.”

The controversial couple split up in February last year amid rumors of an alleged romance between Kho and former actress Nancy Castiliogne, who were reportedly seen kissing at a bar in Taguig.

At the time Belo, in a statement, said she was letting Kho go, so he won't have to "hide" his romance with Castiglione.

Castiglione, who is married and with children of her own, at the time, vehemently denied any involvement with Kho.

But early this year, Belo and Kho have been seen together in public several times.

In the interview, Belo didn’t mention Castiliogne but discussed another controversy involving Kho – the video sex scandal involving actress Katrina Halili in 2009.

Asked how she got over the scandal, Belo said: “I don’t know! I think because he told me the truth and he told me ahead of everyone. I think because I understand how it happened and why it happened.”

“But what has changed is it’s not anymore ‘Oh, he’s so wonderful and good.’ Now I get it, it (cheating) is gonna happen. And so far it’s been very light. …I haven’t forgiven him to the level that ‘I’m so in love with you and I’m gonna trust you again.’ It’s more like, ‘I’m watching you,’” Belo explained.

Belo also recalled Kho’s suicide attempt after the video scandal. “I thought he was gonna die, I was praying so hard,” she said.

“I actually feel guilty. When I met Hayden he was such a nerd. We started to go out and it was very quiet, then it came out and became so controversial. I found it unfair,” she added.

Belo, 57, also defended Kho, saying the 32-year-old Kho isn’t merely her “boytoy.”

“For me Hayden wasn’t pipitsugin! At 25, he was a doctor, was Mr. UST, varsity basketball, model; then he goes into my world and he’s the ‘boytoy’ of Vicki Belo. Teka muna, why are you looking at him like that?” she told Gonzalez.

Cristalle Heneras now being linked to Derek

MANILA, Philippines – Celebrity doctor Vicki Belo has no problem about actor Derek Ramsay being romantically linked to her daughter, Cristalle Henares.

But Belo maintained that Henares and Ramsay share nothing but a close friendship.

“They’re both very athletic so they hang out together. Pero wala namang yatang romance sa pagkakaalam ko. Baka may secret, hindi ko alam,” she said.

Henares also denied that she has a romantic relationship with the actor, saying she is just close to Ramsay’s family.

“As a matter of fact, nung new year pumunta kami sa Bukidnon together with his family, tapos nag-Palawan kami last month. Pero nothing more than a sister talaga,” she said.

Another reason they always see each other is because Ramsay is an endorser of the Belo Sun Expert, Henares pointed out.

“Derek and I have been working together also dahil siya din ang isang endorser namin. Baka naisip lang ng tao na baka may nangyayari kasi parati kaming nagkikita, pero wala talaga,” she said.

Asked for a message to those who see something more to their closeness, Henares said: “Hindi naman ako showbiz, hindi naman ako sanay dito. At least sa amin, between us, we know the truth. There’s nothing wrong being linked to each other, pareho naman kaming single, ‘di ba? Wala namang naapektuhan na iba.”

Henares used to be in a relationship with Azkals defender Jason Sabio. Ramsay, on the other hand, has been linked to actress Cristine Reyes after his break-up with actress Angelica Panganiban.
