At the presscon for �Shake, Rattle & Roll 9,� John Prats stressed that he has no intention of destroying the Shaina Magdayao-Rayver Cruz love team. �They�re my friends at magkakasama kami sa UD 4 at Supahdance album,� he says. Sila pa rin ang magka-love team. Isa pang masakit is the accusation na ginagamit ko si Shaina for publicity.

    I have no such intention.�

    Shaina has admitted he�s wooing her. �Nagulat din ko as I wasn�t expecting that I�d fall for her kasi mas bata nga siya. Kilala ko siya even as a child dahil friend siya ng sister ko (Camille Prats). I didn�t plan na ma-attract ako sa kanya, basta it just happened. E, hindi mo naman matuturuan ang puso mo, di ba? Two months pa lang naman akong nanliligaw sa kanya. It�s not true we have identical rings or wristwatches. May binigay ako sa kanya, pero fashion ring pa lang. If ever maging kami nga, I won�t deny it. As of now, hindi pa talaga kami.�

    John topbills the �Christmas Tree� episode of �Shake, Rattle & Roll 9� with Lovi Poe, the directorial debut of scriptwriter Paul Daza. �Excited ako as this is my first horror film and first time ko ring masama in a �Shake, Rattle & Roll� movie,� he says.

    What can he say about the rumored romance between him and Ai Ai de las Alas? �Well, there was a time na naging close kami and we watched a movie together, pero hindi kami naging on. Parang mommy lang ang turing ko sa kanya.�
