3 CARS FROM SUGAR MOMMY? NO WAY SAYS JAY

Manila, Nov. 22, 1997 - Jay Manalo is merely laughing off persistent rumors that he has three luxury cars, all gifts from a rich matron.

I also heard about that and I am really looking for the cars they are talking about," he says. "I'm using the same car I bought years ago from my first talent fees; it needs replacing because it breaks down often."

"Another rumor I heard is that a very rich gay is paying for my house rental. What do they think of me?" he asks.

"I am not a call boy. Do I look like the kind of man who sells his body?"

Jay recently topped the poll conducted by Chika-Chika Magazine as to who are the top five macho studs today. The runners-up are: Leandro Baldemor, Richard Gomez, Jomari Yllana and Roy Rodrigo.
