Irate flamboyant celeb slams door on faultless messenger
Flamboyant Celeb hasn’t changed one bit. FC was in a foul mood before a gig down south. Apparently, FC had issues against the producer.
The producer dispatched a lowly assistant to FC’s hotel suite to ask about dinner plans. FC was being dolled up, so the gofer stood by the door, politely awaiting an answer.
Sighting the poor staffer, without uttering a single word, FC stood up from the makeup chair and slammed the door in the stunned underling’s face.
It was ugly.
Living hell

Article continues after this advertisementIt was too late when FA learned that CL owed loan sharks some serious money. Worse, they’re now banging on FA’s door, demanding payment.
FA’s world used to be picture-perfect. Now, she’s in a living hell.
Straight shooter
Trusted Friend introduced Influential Personality to Promising Actor. A closet gay, IP was thrilled to meet PA.
PA made it appear that he was an engineering student working menial jobs to finish his schooling.
Just days later, PA bypassed TF and went straight to IP, dropping hints here and there.
Although his interest was piqued, IP had the good sense to consult TF, who was shocked by the boy’s brazenness.
TF revealed to IP the real background of PA. A gigolo, PA was a school dropout and once a rich lawyer’s kept hunk.
End of contact, as far as IP was concerned.
Rude awakening
Heard on the Radyo Inquirer program “Kliq Showbiz” (dzIQ 990 AM, Monday to Friday,
3 to 5 p.m.).
Popular Star can be tactless in questioning fellow celebrities. Actually, anyone. Well, PS met her match recently.
PS rudely asked Feisty Starlets about very personal matters. FS snapped at PS!
After the interview, PS unleashed her fury on the hapless staff and admonished coworkers never to invite FS to the show again.
Down on his knees
Picked up from the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Handsome Hunk’s career has been in limbo since moving to a new studio.
HH is reluctant to renew his contract with Feisty Manager. Thing is, HH’s new company isn’t that keen on working with him either.
When HH heard that a plum role in a coming religious movie had been made available (the original star backed out for health reasons), he wasted no time in lobbying for it. HH did research on the real-life character and sought out the film’s producers and director.
HH reportedly went down on his knees and begged for the part. Alas, to no avail.

GMA executive Annette Gozon-Abrogar, asked if she’s willing to patch things up with Sarah Lahbati: “Magkikita naman siguro kami sa court once [the hearing] starts. Sana maintindihan niya kung ano ’yung [case].” (Sarah has filed countercharges of grave coercion and perjury. Let the games begin!)
