katotohanan kahit one percent."

 "Truth is, hindi ako taong-bato. Nakakalungkot

'yan. But 'yan ang reality ng mundong pinasok
ko," says John Lloyd Cruz referring to the recent
rumor that he was spotted biking with Ruffa
Gutierrez recently.
 

John Lloyd Cruz repeatedly pleaded to the

concerned people to stop spreading rumors about
him.

 This came after the media asked for his reaction

to Cristy Fermin's "revelation" recently on TV5's
entertainment show Juicy that John Lloyd and
Ruffa Gutierrez were spotted biking together at
The Fort in Taguig. 

 "Hindi 'yon totoo. Wala siyang katotohanan kahit one percent," John Lloyd told the press during
the press launch of his new Greenwich Pizza TV commercial yesterday, June 8, at the SM
Megamall in Mandaluyong City.

 The 26-year-old actor said he has no idea where this news came from and he has no intention of
knowing about it.

 He explained, "You know, kapag inisa-isa natin ang balita kung saan nanggagaling, mauubos
ang panahon natin to actually live our lives. Kasi, may mga bagay tayo na pinagtutuunan ng
pansin na mas may worth sa atin."

 As much as possible, the Kapamilya actor does not want to give attention to unconfirmed news.

 He said, "Hindi ko na puwedeng kuwestiyunin ang mga inilalabas ng iba. Hindi mo puwedeng
kuwestiyunin ang intention nila kasi you're in this business. So, talagang wala ka nang
magagawa kung hindi asahan na talagang may mga taong magsasalita or magpa-fabricate ng
mga bagay-bagay na walang basehan."

 Although he already accepted that intrigue is part of his profession, John Lloyd said it still
affects him.

 
"Truth is, hindi ako taong-bato. Nakakalungkot 'yan," the actor confessed. "But 'yan ang reality
ng mundong pinasok ko. Walang problema sa akin, wala naman akong minamasama. 'Yon nga
lang po, I'm sorry to tell you, it's not true."

 Then he appealed, "Sana ma-realize din nila na sana tama na. Baka may pamilyang
naaapektuhan or may mga taong nag-iisip ng hindi dapat isipin or may mga tao na tunay na
naaapektuhan sa balitang ito, na masyado nang seryoso ang dating sa kanila. Baka may mangyari
pa in the future, God knows when, na hindi kanais-nais or hindi maganda."

 To set things clear, John Lloyd said he rarely communicates with Ruffa nowadays. "Kumbaga,
yes, but it's not that active anymore, 'yong communication or 'yong friendship. Kasi, pareho
naman kami na nasa magkaibang istasyon ngayon and marami siyang ginagawa na kailangan ng
focus niya at ganun din naman ako."

 When asked if this issue would affect his rumored relationship with young actress Shaina
Magdayao, the multi-awarded actor deflected the question by saying, "You know what, if you try
to imagine the bigger picture and the real picture of the situation, baka dapat i-consider nang
tama na ito, baka kasi mas seryosong bagay na ang puwedeng maapektuhan. Kasi, may pamilya
'yong tao. It's not nice na palaging pinag-uusapan ang mga bagay na ganyan kasi hindi maganda
ang puwedeng maging epekto niyan sa mga taong involved sa buhay namin."
