There's the box-office queen title, a new clothing endorsement...and a love life?

Sarah Geronimo exclaimed "Ano po?!!!" when the latter was mentioned.

"A relationship," said the media people in unison.

She hastily replied, "Wala...wala po."

The Pop Princess's "love" is reportedly Rayver Cruz, who was her co-star in You Changed My Life.

Since the people took note of their chemistry, teasing the Viva talent and Star Magic artist had become incessant. The rumors of late, the two already have M.U. or mutual understanding.

The 20-year-old singer-actress was quick to say: "Sino po may sabi?" Before adding, "Wala po, kasi ako'y di pa allowed po, at ako'y di pa rin naman ready for a relationship."

At present, she and Rayver are not dating and are still in the getting to know you stage.

But just to give her fans some updates, Sarah related, "Ngayon kami, kumbaga masasabi ko na naging close kami sa isa't isa, nakikilala namin ang bawat isa, ayun..."

And the young lady said she's not discarding the possibility of having a real MU with the 19-year-old guy. "One year kasi ang tanda ko sa kanya, so marami kaming mga similarities. 'Tapos yun nga, mahilig kumanta, mahilig sumayaw, at saka alam mo yung pareho kami na isip bata, so dun...Yun siguro [ang reason] kaya nagja-jibe kami."

But what about Mark Bautista, who said in an interview with PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) last February 25 that Sarah is "worth waiting for"?

The Star for a Night winner's reply was, "Hindi ko naman binibigyan ng end ang lahat ng bagay kasi nga, hindi ko naman masasabi kung ano ngang mangyayari. Pero yun kasi, yung parang tingin ko sa kanya, parang brother."

Sarah and Mark will have their concert tour in the U.S. for two months, any chance the "brother" treatment would evolve into something "more than friends"?

In a very childlike manner, she quipped, "Naku, kilalang-kilala ko na yun. After ng trabaho, magkakaroon naman po siguro ng time na yun, to go around."

She's been working with Mark since she formally entered showbiz in 2003. She feels comfortable being with him, to the point that she used to call him "kuya."

"He respects me," said the star of You Changed My Life.

But at this point, the admirers of Sarah know where they stand—career is her topmost priority.
