If the speculations are indeed true, this will Maine's first magazine cover. The "Eat Bulaga" mainstay has been elusive to the media since breaking out in the noontime show and has given interviews to press a handful of times (including a couple of exclusive interviews with STAR entertainment editor Ricky Lo) and GMA-7.
