Dingdong Dantes is so busy these days he and girlfriend Marian Rivera haven’t found time to discuss what they will do on Valentine’s Day.
Dingdong, for one, hopes his ladylove will watch him guest in Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez’s Valentine concert, “Mr. and Mrs. A” on Feb. 14 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum so he can get extra moral support and find time to date her “kung maaga matapos ang concert.”
He’s not afraid Valentine’s Day for him and Marian will be boring. Years of dating Marian exclusively have proven that he doesn’t have to plan anything with her for things to work out well.
“Usually, lumalabas na lang an pag malapit na (ang Valentine’s Day),” he says after the launch of “Empower Deo Cologne” for Bench at Main Atrium of Mall of Asia last Feb. 4.
Dingdong takes his hat off to Marian for finding time despite her busy schedule to whip up dishes for him.
“Kung gusto, marami namang paraan,” Marian used to say.
Healthy meals
Marian’s healthy meals help Dingdong maintain the to-die-for body that he partly bared when he went shirtless, to the crowd’s delight at the jampacked venue.
“Magaling ang cook ko. Pinaghahandaan niya ako ng masarap na isda.”
Dingdong admits keeping in shape is not easy.
“Kaya idol ko ang mga models (referring to the group that shared the stage with him that night). I envy them because ginagawa nila parati yan.”
Dingdong thinks not watching one’s diet could sometimes lead to mood changes. And that’s the last thing on his mind right now since Dingdong feels as inspired as can be, thanks to “people I love na gusto kong pasayahin.”
These people, he goes on, empower him, motivating him to do things he himself never imagined himself doing.
Dingdong will next be seen in the GMA drama series “My Beloved”, his reunion project with Marian, starting Feb.13.
