Sophie! Sophie! Sophie, over here. Sophie, look here!
Flash. Flash. Flash. Cameras everywhere. Fans screaming my name and trying to get my autograph.
"Sophie! This is Teen Daily. Are you excited for tonight?"
Reporters.
"Of course, I'm so excited!" I said.
This would be boring.
I carried on and did some poses for the photographers. My long sparkling gown was shining under the bright sun. It was a relief that the color didn't match the red carpet.
"Sophie de Vega, everyone! Wow you look stunning today! Is it true that you are inspired that is why you are being nominated for the Teen Sensation award?" said Francis Baker.
Inspired?
"I'm inspired because of my fans. They have been so great. They have been supporting me," I said.
Smile.
"Well, rumor has it that Jessie invited you to come to his condo unit last Saturday......" he continued on.
WAIT.WAIT.WAIT. Jesse Logan, the teen sensation awardee for 2 consecutive years? You've got to be kidding me!
"Sorry Fran but that rumor is not true," I said.
My P.A. motioned me to be proceed to the main entrance when Teen Pop suddenly called my attention.
"Sophie! Is it true that you are dating Jesse Logan?"

Now, where do I begin this.
I just hate how rumors in Hollywood would spread.
"17 years old, Sophie de Vega caught with a non-celebrity guy at...."
"Sophie de Vega: I'm not in-love."
"Sophie, sick of her t.v. show?"
Sophie. Sophie. Sophie. Sophie. Arghh. I wouldn't be talking about my celebrity life, the freebies, the privileges of being famous, so I'd tell you what I'm going to talk about. I'm going to tell you about how this
SOPHIE DE VEGA AND JESSIE LOGAN CAUGHT KISSING BACKSTAGE!
turned to this:
SOPHIE DE VEGA PREGNANT.
I'M KIDDING! I'm not pregnant. Here is REALLY what happened:
SOPHIE DE VEGA: WE BROKE UP.

Episode 1: It's the Fernando thing.
"You have, an Oprah interview @4. Tomorrow you'll be interviewed by The View. Afternoon you'll be at Ryan's Radio show. You have lunch with Betty White and Yoga. Do you want me to tell your schedule on the following day?" said Anna my dearest P.A.
"Nope, it's alright. No need, thanks," I said.
Aghhh. Interviews, Show guesting. Photo shoots. Lunch with Betty White. :l
Suddenly, as I turned on the television, E! News was up.
"Sophie de Vega, the singer turned actress was rumored to be seeing teen sensation, Jesse Logan. The two were rumored to be eating together in L.A.'s Dish last Sunday. More after the break."
This is not good. I called on Hugh, one of the producers of the show.
"Hugh, what the hell was that?"
"Soph, how are you?" he said.
"I need an explanation. NOW!"
"Is it the Jesse thing? I'm sorry but it came from a very reliable source. There's no arguing on that."
"Who?" I demanded.
"Dear, we keep things very confidential when it comes to the shows sources."
This guy is hard. I was desperate enough to call one person that I knew will help me get out of this misery. Mom.
"Mom, did you see the E! News today?" I said.
"Yes dear. I didn't know you were seeing Jesse. How is he doing?" said Mom.
"Mom, it's all lies. We are not going out okay. Here's the thing..."
I told mom about the nasty rumor and that Hugh knows the source of it. She said that she'll be talking to him and set things right because I was still a minor. The E! News came back and I waited for the news.
"Is True or False? Teen sensation Jesse Logan in-love with Sophie de Vega? The two power teens were spotted at L.A.'s Dish being cozy and intimate. SO TRUE!
That's it! That segment WAS my favorite.
I reached for my phone but as I was about to dial Hugh, Mom's message popped out.
From: Mom
Sophs. It's Fernando Rutti. He is the manager of Jesse Logan.
Manager. of. Jesse. Logan. I was taken aback. Now Mr. Jesse Logan, welcome to my hate list.

Episode 2: I met him at Starbucks
Yesterday I called Mr. Fernando (don't call my name) Rutti.
Fernando (Don't call my name) : Speak.
Me: Is this Fernando?
Fernando (I'm not your babe): I got contracts to sign, I got meetings to do, you're lucky that I even answered the phone. And that is just all you can say.
Me: Judging by the way you speak, you must really be Fernando. You are speaking to Sophie. De Vega.
Fernando (Chorus): Oh, I didn't realize you're Sophie. Anyway, how did you get my number?
Me: Actually you are kind of busy, right? Meet me at Starbucks (...address....) at 3:00 p.m. Please don't bring your pet with you.
Fernando: You are very much welcome here at my office, Soph. What's the matter?
Me: Don't call my name, Fernando! It's something concerning with your pet. If you don't want to show up, I'll be suing your company and....
Fernando: Okay. I'll be there.
It was 3:30 p.m. He was 30 minutes late. I've ordered my usually drink, Iced Green Tea Latte. A Vugatti pulled out on the front door of Starbucks.
To: Fernando (Illuminati)
i'm wearing a black leather jacket and a gucci sunglasses. i'm near the save the earth poster.
A minute later, he sat down in front of me.
"I have lunch with Betty White so answer my question with simplicity," I said. "Did you start the rumor about me going with Jesse?"
"Yes," he replied.
"Why?"
"Because he likes you," he replied.
"Shut up. I'm an actress and I know if you're telling the truth or acting "cute" and stuff."
"I was about to discuss it to you about this but It was earlier than expected, " he replied. He went on about his plan.

Episode 3: Match Made with Fernando as your host
Let me get these facts straight.
1. Fernando here started the rumor about me going out with Jesse.
2. This plan of his was for Jesse, who, was last seen singing in his concert last year but ended up being booed because of his awful lip sync abilities and the whole controversy was in the newspaper, Internet, youtube and FailBlog.
3. Because I'm super famous and every guy in the world would love to date me and stuff, I, Sophie Bernadette Garcia de Vega, would eventually boost his career up if the media/public would see us together being love birds and stuff.
4. Fernando will be, of course, paying me to do this. Nothing is free.
5. I'll be starting to be madly in-love with Jesse tomorrow.
I'll be starting to be madly in-love with Jesse tomorrow. I'll be starting to be madly in-love with Jesse tomorrow. I'll be starting to be madly in-love with Jesse tomorrow.
The whole idea sinked in. I didn't have much choice. I'll be receiving millions from Fernando by accepting this "project" but I don't think I could do it. But then again, I am Sophie Bernadette Garcia de Vega, 2 time Kid's choice awardee, 1,988,566 followers on Twitter and the official girlfriend of Jesse starting tomorrow.
