Ang pagbabalik ni Mickey Ferriols!

SHOWBIZ DRIBBLE - Salve V. Asis -
Sa UK (Salt Dean Vale) magi-spend ng New Year si Maui Taylor kung saan naka-base ang kanyang dad, Roberto, 58 years old. Contrary ito sa report na taga-Antipolo lang ang father niya at hindi totoong British national. "It’s okey, isipin na nila lahat ng gusto nilang isipin. Kahit ano pang sabihin nila, I know the truth kung sino ang father ko," she said in a chance interview before she left.

Nag-travel siya alone last December 27. Nauna na kasing umalis ang mom niya. "Kaya nga last Christmas kami lang ng kuya ko."

She will be back on January 15 and then magi-start na siya ng shooting ng Kasalo either with Albert Martinez or Gary Estrada. Tapos susunod agad ang Road Trip. Hindi pa rin niya alam kung si Katya Santos or Andrea del Rosario ang makakasama niya.

Anyway, kino-consider niyang lucky ang 2002. In terms of achievements, marami siyang na-recognize. May dalawa siyang movie na parehong box-office hit - Gamitan and Hibla kasabay ng pag-boom ng pangalan niya sa showbiz. Pero hindi lahat ay kino-consider niyang positive dahil marami rin siyang intrigues na na-encounter. Like ‘yung issue sa kanila ni Cogie Domingo na nagi-start sa blind item na kesyo na nag-sex sila sa Makati Medical Center nang minsang naka-confine ang actor. "Natatawa na lang ako sa tsismis na ‘yan. Hindi ko naman dini-deny na nag-visit ako sa hospital dahil friends naman kami. Actually bago kami nagpunta do’n with my three girlfriends galing kami sa derma. Naglakad lang kami going to Makati Med. True rin na hanggang madaling araw kami do’n dahil nag-request siya. Saka may non-showbiz girlfriend si Cogie that time, so paanong mangyayari ‘yun?

"Twice kaming dumalaw kay Cogie. Na-shock lang ako dahil sobrang tagal na no’n. Hindi pa ako Maui Taylor no’n," kuwento ng sexy star.

Bukod kay Cogie, na-link din sa kanya si Vandolph sa write-up. Shocked din siya sa nasabing issue dahil never naman silang naging close ng young actor. "Nag-meet lang kami nang mag-guest ako sa Home Along Da Riles. That’s it." Never nga raw itong nag-text or tumawag sa kanya.

Isa pang grabeng intriga sa actress this year ay ang one-night stand issue sa kanila ng photographer na si Xander Angeles. Nag-start ang intriga nang mag-shoot sila para sa FHM calendar sa Bohol. "Over talaga ang intrigang ‘yun. Nakakahiya sa family niya at sa part ko. Hindi naman ako ganoon, ang cheap," she said.

At ang pinaka-worst, ang intrigang retokada siya.

Pero feeling ni Maui, mas maraming mas magandang bagay na nangyari sa career niya sa pagtatapos ng 2002 kaya kahit maraming issue against her, nagpapasalamat pa rin siya.

After three years, nagsalita na si Mickey Ferriols sa issue ng sudden disappearance niya sa showbiz.

Three years ago nang hindi nag-attend si Mickey sa presscon ng Sa Sandaling Kailangan Kita with Piolo Pascual and Marvin Agustin. Matagal siyang hinintay sa Annabel’s noon para sa nasabing presscon, pero no show si Mickey na during that time ay kaka-resign lang sa Eat Bulaga. Naging rason ‘yun sa talent manager niya na si Chit Ramos na magdemanda dahil sa kahihiyang inabot niya. Siya ang nakipag-negotiate sa ABS-CBN for the said program kaya sobrang embarrassment ang inabot niya, ‘yun pala nanonood lang si Mickey ng TV sa bahay nila.

From there, nagsunud-sunod ang issue tungkol kay Mickey - dahilan ng gulo sa Eat Bulaga particular na sa Vic Sotto-Kristine Florendo relationship, issue sa kanila ng basketball player na si Eric Menk, ang Starex na galing kay Jude Estrada among others. "As much as possible ayoko nang pag-usapan ‘yun.

"Sobra ang regret ko sa nangyari. Imagine kung nasaan si Piolo Pascual ngayon," she said.

"Hindi ko rin na-recognize ang mga ginawa ni Tita Chit sa career ko noon. During that time kasi, may mga taong in control sa career ko with a good intention kaya hindi ko rin masisi. Nagkaroon ng miscommunication kaya maraming nangyari na matagal bago ko na-realize," she added.

"But I would like to let Tita Chit know that if I learned anything from that experience, it would be this: To trust and value the person whose only concern is to help you grow and posper, and if need be, communicate your feelings and opinions openly. Most importantly, to respect as you would want to be respected," she averred.

Nagkaroon ng out-of-court settlement between Mickey and Tita Chit. Lawyer to lawyer na ang nag-usap at nag-agree sila na may babayarang certain amount para mabayaran ang damage na ginawa ng TV host/actress sa kanyang manager. "Hindi ko nga ini-expect na kakausapin pa ako ni Tita Chit after what happened."

Ngayon, co-manager pa rin niya si Ms. Chit. Lahat ng kikitain niya, may certain percentage na mapupunta kay Ms. Chit as part of their agreement. "I apologize for the disappointments and heartaches I brought upon Tita Chit and other people. I’d like to believe though that there are no mistakes, just lessons learned... and believe me I learned well.

"I am grateful to Tita Chit for not putting up a tough front when I called her - even if we all know she can be capable of that and perhaps had every right to do so. Instead, she listened calmly and said that she had long forgiven me for what happened. That alone, that simple gesture made it clear to me that she was only looking out for my best interest ever since. Proving yet again that she deserved no such distrust from me.

"Also my sincere apologies go out to ABS-CBN and GMA for having dragged them into this ‘finally-over’ debacle. My heartfelt thanks to the two networks for the opportunities they gave me.

"Finally, I am happily looking forward to being active again in showbiz. Hopefully, with God’s grace and support, I still have room in it."

May movie offer na si Mikey sa Imus Production pero hindi pa nagpa-finalize kung tatanggapin niya o hindi dahil sexy ang pelikula.
