Handsome Hunk cultivates a wholesome, do-gooder image onscreen. He is often seen showering less-privileged kids with gifts in public appearances.
HH, however, has been ignoring the needs of his own love child with Estranged Girlfriend.
HH and EG didn’t part amicably, and this has affected the poor kid. EG is too proud to beg and insists that HH should make the first move, for the sake of their child.
A mole says HH has yet to provide for the kid’s tuition and other school fees. The child fell ill recently and HH never showed up at the hospital.
Ms Potty Mouth
Fans got turned off with Perky Starlet, who belongs to a prominent show biz clan.
PS was unhappy with the chow at an upscale resto and expressed her dissatisfaction using language so foul that it made toes curl, peppered as it was with F-bombs galore.
What?! PS is supposedly well-educated, and a role model for the youth.
Noting that other diners and waiters were staring, PS exclaimed: “Why are you looking at me like I was drunk?
Anyare ’teh?
Irreconcilable
Chatty Celeb and the staff of Beleaguered Show had a falling out over petty matters, and the squabble remains unresolved, contrary to insiders’ claims.
CC has allegedly become as difficult and demanding as Scandalous Colleague. (As luck would have it, CC and SC are mortal enemies.)
Trying to mend fences, the staffers sent a bouquet of flowers as peace offering. CC was unmoved. No love lost?
Glamorous life
Heard on the Radyo Inquirer program “Kliq Showbiz” (dzIQ 990 AM, Monday to Friday, 3 to 5 p.m.):
Coworkers are irritated with Glamorous Celeb, who throws her weight around on the set as if she’s the biggest star in the known universe. For starters, GC lugs around an entourage that could put other VIPs to shame.
Has fame gone to GC’s pretty little head? Or is that her absurd way of coping with a recent heartbreak?
Cat fight
Picked up from the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Veteran Host and Upstart Colleague can’t stand each other. In public, they try to make nice and appear cordial—especially now that the former has entered the political realm.
Insiders, however, insist that VH has quite a mouthful to say against UC. And vice versa.
UC dismisses VH as an insecure has-been. VH retorts that UC is an ambitious social climber.
Kathniel comeback
Daniel Padilla and Kathryn Bernardo are both excited about the premiere this month of their romantic-comedy TV series, “Got to Believe.” As an advance treat, ABS-CBN’s “Showbiz Inside Report” aired an exclusive feature on “Got to Believe” and its lead stars yesterday.
“SIR” also shed light on the controversial feud between show biz couple Claudine Barretto and Raymart Santiago, and featured the success story of award-winning rapper Abra.
Top of the Bandera
The top show biz news in the Inquirer tabloid Bandera (and why we are moved, if we are moved.)
Pati sakong at nipples kailangan pulang-pula; Xian Lim mas mukha pang babae kesa kay Kim Chiu! (What’s the fuss? Baka metrosexual lang ang peg!)
Julia: Kami ni Kathryn ang loveteam forever! (May tawag diyan.)
Rufa Mae: Ayoko na munang magdyowa, istorbo lang! (Famous last words.)
Buto-buto ni Derek bali-bali na, may “sumpa” kaya lapitin ng aksidente; “Magkabilang tuhod ko, braso tinahi na ’yan, pati ilong ko nabali rin!” (Anything but that face!)
Joey de Leon may bagong pasabog, kasali na rin sa “My Husband’s Lover” nina Tom at Dennis. (Seems Keempee beat him to it.)
Mga anak ni Benjie ang titigas ng puso; halos isumpa na si Jackie. (But they’re so cute! )
Kaya hindi magugustuhan ni Kim kahit kailan; Xian Lim … sumbungero raw sa mga bossing ng ABS-CBN. (Whew! We thought…)
Gerald Anderson nag-ala Prince William sa pagdyinggel, pototoy nag-hello. (The trouble with hello…)
James masuwerte pa rin, mas matindi ang inabot na kahihiyan nina Joey at Ipe. (Nakup.)
Naloka ang mga organizer sa isang provincial show; Daniel tinopak daw, tumangging magpainterbyu sa press… nagkulong sa hotel? (Too soon, too soon.)
Heart nakipag-ayos na sa magulang, pero ’di pa rin tanggap si Sen. Chiz? (Too soon, in another way.)
’Di pa rin matanggap na mas pinili ang dyowa sa pamilya; Charice patatawarin lang ng nanay pag dinispatsa na si Alyssa Quijano. (Too soon din ito. Why are people so impatient?)
Charice gugulatin si David Foster sa brusko at machong hitsura. (Surely Foster has Internet. )
Dennis, Tom parehong walang dyowa; apektado na ng kabaklaan ang love life. (Parang hindi naman.)
Maiinit, mapangahas na eksena sa “My Husband’s Lover” kinatay ng MTRCB. (Just doing their job. We know of preteens who watch.)
Gretchen sa mga babaeng inaabuso: Magtrabaho, manindigan at lumaban kayo! (Spin a win!)
Inilaglag ang dating dyowa, puring-puri naman sina Angel at Marian; Hindi naman maganda si Solenn, e! Sira ang ilong nu’n! —Derek (Pot, meet kettle.)
Randy sa hiwalayang Raymart-Claudine: Bakit ako eeksena? Anong pakialam ko du’n? (Words of wisdom.)
Kayang-kayang mabuhay kahit walang love life; Lovi sawang-sawa na sa lalake: “Gusto kong mag-travel mag-isa!” Jake Cuenca binasted, Singson kaibigan na lang. (Long hair!)
Angel inisnab sa 100 most beautiful stars, die-hard fans nagwawala sa sobrang galit; “Utang na loob, mas may karapatan naman si Angel kesa kay Marian, ’no!” (Hell hath no fury like fans scorned!)
Cinemalaya 2013: Puno ng hubaran, murahan, sex scandal at patayan! Mara Lopez nagpakita ng boobs, Alex Medina naglabas ng puwet. (And this will be the most well-attended Cinemalaya ever!)
Rufa Mae hindi natatakot tumandang dalaga, pero gusto nang magkaanak. (A grave contradiction somewhere in there.)
Natatakot sa mga baril ng dating asawa? Claudine nagsampa na ng temporary protection order laban kay Raymart. (Let the side show begin. But this is not funny.)
Magaling daw mag-imbento ng kung anu-anong kuwento; Claudine naiskoran agad ni Raymart, ibinuking na ang “lihim” na pagkatao. (With that one cutting line, huh?)
Gay marriage aprubado kay Dennis: Mas aasenso siguro tayo kung malaya ang lahat! (And that’s my husband’s lover.)
Coleen Garcia: Wala kaming relasyon ni Billy! Ayoko nang makisawsaw sa kanila ni Nikki. (E ’di wala.)
Kapag naging pangulo raw ng Pilipinas si Pacman, kawawa ang mga Pinoy. (Harsh!)
