I was so thrilled because Alex mentioned Heart and me in one sentence, and we all know what a fashion powerhouse Heart is. Kaya naman, you should watch the vlog para alam niyo ang truth,” she explained.</p><div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img alt="Alex" src="https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2022/entertainment/11/16/20221116-alex.jpg"/></figure></div><p>Gonzaga also addressed the issue through a Facebook post on Tuesday. She shared a news item headlining the snub.</p><p>Gonzaga wrote, unedited: “Ay.. Hindi po kami nagkita sa Milan biruan lang po namin yan ni Dra if you watch the whole vlog. Heart is nice since Pangarap na bituin circa 2007 pa po sakin at magkaibigan kami. Hindi na dapat ginawang news mga ganito”.</p><p>In Belo&#x27;s vlog, the two were talking about fashion shows when Gonzaga noted how more Filipinos now appreciate the fashion industry.</p><p>“After mga ilang years, &#x27;di ba parang na-appreciate na pala natin sa Philippine scene, dahil sa &#x27;yo (Belo), kila Heart, yung iba-iba, sila Liz Uy,” Gonzaga said.</p><p>Belo interrupted Gonzaga and said: “Did you take note? Heart and me in the same sentence... Pero, hindi tayo pinansin ni Heart.”</p><p>“Hoy, Heart! Mars, we were in the same fashion show, hindi ka man lang nag-hi. ‘Di ba?” Belo added, laughing, while saying that all of them were seated in the same row.</p><p>Gonzaga then mentioned some of Evangelista’s previous series which she said she supported such as “Hiram” and “Panday.”</p><p>“Heart, ano &#x27;to, Mars? Sa Manila, magkakaibigan tayo,” she said, laughing. “Yung mga soap opera niya, sinuportahan natin siya. Sana naman suportahan niya rin tayo dito.”</p><p>The two then just laughed it off before continuing their conversation about their Milan experience.</p>
