Though she constantly dates celebrity Carlos Guevarra, hot Brazilian model Daiana Menezes denies that the hunk is already her boyfriend.

“We're together. I cannot tell you na boyfriend ko na siya kasi parang maaga pa. I should know him for at least three years to call him boyfriend. I don't wanna call him my boyfriend. You can say we're exclusively dating,” explains Daiana in an interview with Manila Bulletin Entertainment Online after GMA-7's press party on  Dec. 14.

Rumors has it that Carlos is now considering Daiana "the most influential person in his life," and that it is the main reason he moved to GMA-7 from ABS-CBN.

Daiana denied encouraging Carlos to leave his 'Kapamilya' behind.

“I gave him a few tips. I always advise him for the best. What he does in his private life, it is up to him. I used whatever connections I have just to give him the best pero it's really up to him. I can't say tinuruan ko siya. Ask mo na lang siya kasi parang ang pangit naman na sabihing dahil sa akin kaya siya lumipat,” she said.

The Brazilian beauty met Carlos on the set of "Lipgloss," the now defunct youth-oriented TV 5 show.

The two were paired together in the series and love seemed to have bloomed between them. Not surprisingly, they have been spotted a lot of times hanging out in malls, bars and events.

Daiana is aware that Carlos was once linked to singer Yeng Constantino.

“I never met her. Whatever issue that came out, wala akong alam. When I met him [Carlos], he's free,” she said, adding, “Wala akong inagaw.”

Daiana considers herself "more Pinay" now. She said she loves the Philippines, which has been her home for more than two years.

“I love this place. Gusto ko talaga dito. If I could stay here for good, I will.”

The model is interested in doing a full-length movie in the future. She has done cameo roles in two movies so far.

As for her choice of leading man, Daiana mentioned Aljur Abrenica.
