MANILA, Philippines?Andi Manzano swears her relationship with the controversial disc jockey-turned-TV host Mo Twister was ?never official.?
She told Inquirer Entertainment: ?We liked each other, but things didn?t go beyond that. I guess it happened because we worked together every day?we did a morning show together. We were already very good friends when the show started.? Andi co-hosted ?Good Times with Mo? on FM radio station Magic 89.9. She resigned in November 2007.
Tabloids report that Andi is ?broken-hearted,? now that her secret relationship with Mo is over. Mo is reportedly seeing Rhian Ramos now. ?Mo is a very nice person. We still talk regularly,? said Andi, niece of Edu Manzano.
Andrea Bianca Martin Manzano, 23, is a new Kapuso artist. She hosted Q11 shows ?The Beat? and ?Q Tube? and is now a regular on the Sunday show, ?Party Pilipinas.?
Said Andi, aka Andi9: ?I?ve worked with (radio DJs and ?Party Pilipinas? hosts) KC Montero and Rico Robles. I?m excited to work with them again.?
Vic?s pick

Cover girl
Cebuana cover girl and internet celebrity Ellen Adarna, 22, joins Gwen in ?Enteng Kabisote.? Ellen was on the covers of Candy in July 2005 and September 2008 and Uno Magazine in March and September 2008.
She could be the most popular girl in the social networking sites Facebook, Friendster and MySpace, where there are hundreds of fake ?Ellen Adarna? accounts. This landed her a feature in the news and public affairs program, ?Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho.? She joins the cast of ?Bubble Gang.?
