Yet another celebrity skin scandal. EB Babes member Lian Paz or someone closely resembling Lian Paz has been photographed with no top on in what seemed to be a dressing room or a hotel room. The photo is not really that scandalous, the alleged EB Babe Lian Paz has her arm wrapped around her, just enough to not reveal anymore skin. EB Babe Lian Paz is the former girlfriend of another controversial actor of late, Mark Herras. And not to mention that EB in EB Babes means Eat Bulaga, the most controversial of late.

Mark Herras is in several photos circulating on emails with the colegiala identified as one “Valerie Pornea” studying at the University of Sto. Tomas and is purportedly Mark Herras non-showbiz girlfriend. Note: Face of Valerie Pornea in the photos are not shown because she is not a public figure. I will only show it if she allows me too.

Showbiz Central was able to get some statement from Valerie Pornea in a sent text message which stated: “What for? Ide-deny rin naman ni Mark. Kayo na lang po ang bahala. If sa tingin n’yo kailangan, okey lang po.”

And surely, Mark Herras denies the rumored kolehiyala girlfriend or colegiala gf Valerie Pornea. “Hindi totoo ‘yan…marami lang ang nagpapalaki. Si Val, linawin ko lang…isa sa mga fan ko. Actually, hindi na nga lang din fan ang turing ko sa kanya, na ngayon ay inaaway ng mga tao na ayaw du’n sa love team namin ni Rhian Ramos. Basta ako ngayon, ang masasabi ko lang, single ako. Wala akong girlfriend”

In turn, Valerie was asked about her reaction to what Mark Herras has said.

“Sinabi po ba talaga ni Mark na fan niya lang ako? If yun po ang sabi niya…sige, fan lang po ako. Pero may fan po ba na isinasakay niya sa van niya? Pinapatulog sa bahay nila kung gabi na matapos ang taping? If gusto niya pumunta ako ng taping, hindi ako pumapasok sa school kasi, ang gusto niya, dun lang ako. ‘Tapos ngayon, fan niya lang ako?”

“Gusto niya gawin na lang din niya sa akin ang ginawa niya kay Lian [Paz]. Hindi ba unfair yun, kuya? Masakit din sa akin ‘to. Gusto ni Mark tumahimik ako. Tatahimik naman po ako. Pero sana tumahimik siya at hindi niya ipagkakalat na fan ako.

“Ano pa kayang mukha ang ihaharap ko sa mga classmates ko? Dapat nakinig ako sa mga friends ko dati pa.”

Mark Herras reacted by saying: “Alam ko ang totoo at alam din ng mga kasama ko ang totoo, kaya hindi ko na dapat patulan ang mga ganyan.”

“Sana huwag silang mangdamay ng ibang tao. Nananahimik yung bata, nag-aaral. ‘Tapos, like kapag sumasasama sa amin at gustong manood ng taping or SOP, sinasama namin. Alam ko marami pang lalabas na ganyang isyu, pero, sana , huwag silang mandamay ng ibang tao.”

These results are partial and unofficial simply because it is official when tabulation is completed. The complete and final ranking will come out only on the July issue of FHM Philippines. And yeah, despite the moniker Sexiest Women in the World, it is not actually the whole world voting, truthfully the rest of the world does not even know who Angel Locsin or Marian Rivera is. It is a marketing strategy in every edition. In actuality, FHM, the US edition also has just released an online result of the Sexiest Woman of 2008 and nowhere is these Filipina celebrities in the list. Topping it is Megan Fox and at the tail end of no.100 is Britney Spears.

Aside from the Philippine network war, noontime show war, etc..syempre, may namumuong noon-time show dancers war din…gone are the days na Sex Bomb Dancers ang makakatapat ng any girl group, ngayon parang the Sex Bomb Dancers are higher in stature kahit wala sa Eat Bulaga, maybe because they have their own show/soap, Daisy Siete, which is a consistent toprater.

Presenting the Anna Santos Feliciano Dancers better known as ASF Dancers of Wowowee and The EB Babes or Eat Bulaga! Babes looming showdown between their respective noontime shows.

The EB Babes are Angel Coronel, Ann Boleche, Kim Guevarra, Belle Rivera, Joyce Burgos, Lian Paz, Madel Palma, Mae Dela Cerna, Saida Diola and Mergene Maranan.

When the SexBomb Girls left Eat Bulaga!, a new dancing and singing segment was started. The search and founding of the EB Babes was not limited to pretty faces and sexy bodies as the finalists had to undergo five weeks of grueling personality development, stunt, acting and dance classes which included jazz, belly and breakdancing
before the Final Ten were chosen.

The EB Babes now serve as back-up dancers in the opening and closing credits and the game show portions of Eat Bulaga!.

These is a two-part article, with the ASF Dancers as the next feature.
