Recently, Dingdong Dantes slams his critics about coveting the prestigious MMFF 2011 Best Actor award for his role in Segunda Mano. During his TV interview, he said, "Dati sinasabi ko na bonus na lang talaga ang magkaroon ng recognition, magkaroon ng award."
"Minsan nga iniisip ko hindi ko talaga siya hinahangad."
"Pero nung moment na nakuha ko siya at nasabi nga na ako e, kakaiba pala yung feeling."
"Minsan masasabi mo talaga na kailangan talaga na... kailangan siya ng isang aktor para at least ma-verify mo sa sarili mo na meron kang tamang ginagawa."
"Wala akong expectations kaya mas naging sweet yung victory, dahil wala akong expectations,"
Unfortunately, his girlfriend Marian Rivera wasn't around during the Gabi ng Parangal last December 27. She's in Boracay at that time with her family.
