Despite incessant comparisons by their respective fans over the
years, Toda Max star Angel Locsin maintained that she and Marian Rivera
are on good terms. However, she admitted that there was a time that she
and Marian were a little aloof around each other.
“Sa
amin kasi wala kaming issue. Wala kaming away. Siguro nagkakaroon na
lang ng parang medyo naging aloof kami sa isa’t isa kasi laging
nako-compare,” confessed Angel in an interview during the press set
visit for Toda Max. The comparison between the two actresses began after
they both took on the role of the iconic Filipino heroine Darna some
years back.
Being pitted against Marian by
hardcore fans, Angel said has resigned herself to the thought that “Alam
mong iko-compare ng tao talaga kahit anong gawin namin, laging may
manlalait sa akin na fan niya, may manlalait sa kanya na fan ko.”
With
that, she has asked their respective followers to put their
non-existent rivalry to rest. “Sana ‘wag na lang po ganon kasi wala
naman pong ginagawa sa akin si Marian. Ako, wala naman ako sanang
nagawang masama sa kanya at okay naman siya sa akin,” she added.
While
they are not the best of friends, Angel has nothing but good words
about Marian’s generosity which she witnessed when the latter gave
donations for Shop and Share, a online charity auction she spearheaded
with Anne Curtis in 2009 for the benefit of the displaced victims of
Typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng.“Nung Shop and Share kaya humingi ako sa kanya
ng mga donations and nag-donate siya ng mga gowns niya tsaka bags,”
Angel shared.

Recently,
Angel had the chance to meet with Marian for the cover shoot of Rogue
magazine where they both posed for the cameras for their stylist and
friend Pam Quiñones together with Charlene Gonzales, Judy Ann Santos,
and Anne Curtis.
According to Angel, that was
the first time that she had the chance to her five years since she
transferred networks. She said she was the first to approach Marian and
her first words to her were: “Kailangan natin mag-usap.” To which Marian
replied with a hearty laugh and said, “Oo nga eh!”
From
that moment on, she said they started chatting with each other and
among the things that they spoke about was how Marian felt about the
long-standing comparison between them. “Sabi nga niya na parang pagod na
raw siya na lagi [kaming] kinu-compare sa isa’t isa. Eh wala naman
kaming issue, di ba?” Angel revealed.
What did
she feel upon seeing Marian? “Nung nakita ko siya, natuwa naman ako sa
kanya kasi kalog rin pa siya. Down-to-earth rin at laging nakangiti.
Niyakap ko siya at nagtawanan na kami at nagchikahan sa mga nangyari sa
buhay namin. Natuwa lang ako na at least sure kami na wala kaming
problema,” she recalled.
As for the possibility
of a joint project with Marian, Angel said she thinks that the time has
yet to come for them to collaborate on a project, especially if it
would only add on to animosity between their respective fans. “Honestly,
kung parang magkaroon lang ng issue yung project, huwag na lang,” she
bluntly responded. “Kasi sayang naman yung performance namin or yung
galing ng direktor, or yung galing ng scriptwriter kung matatabunan lang
ng issue yung pelikula. Baka hindi pa siguro ngayon.”
“Pero kami, wala kaming problema,” she added.
