Cranky celeb scolds star-struck kin

GRETCHEN Barretto has a shocking bombshell in store.

Controversial Star’s mood swings are unpredictable. Rushes mole reports this incident: CS met with relatives backstage during an out-of-town engagement. At first CS was welcoming and even sweet, chatting up a storm with the guests.

The relatives, however, soon noticed Handsome Hunk sitting quietly in a corner. They didn’t let the photo op pass! Perhaps feeling upstaged, CS got irked.

In front of HH and everyone in the waiting room, CS scolded the startled kin. Actually, HH didn’t mind entertaining the bunch. But apparently CS did.

‘Bi’ lines

Observers wonder why this promising romance went pfft. Hunky Celeb and Perky Starlet seemed to be a match made in heaven. After all, they’re both uh, “bi”!

Thing is, while HC is rumored to be bisexual, PS is bipolar. So now we know that, when two bi’s collide, it’s not a pretty picture. Gossips insist that HC could no longer stand PS’ nasty temper.

‘B’ for brazen

Showbiz Insider is appalled by colleague’s audacity.

PHIL Younghusband insists he and Angel Locsin have remained friends despite rumors of enmity. ARNOLD ALMACEN

SI wonders why Industry Bigwig is allowed to “copy” other people’s works. IB had previously gotten flak because past projects bore striking resemblances to foreign movies.

It happened not just once, but thrice!

Seems IB is addicted to filching story ideas, notes SI, who swears the story of IB’s most recent project again seemed eerily familiar. It was reminiscent of an episode of a popular US TV show.

Unlucky, uncaring

From the Radio Inquirer program “Kliq Showbiz” (dzIQ 990 AM, Monday to Friday, 3 to 5 p.m.):

Scandalous Personality is still at it. After gambling away the equivalent of P120 million abroad, SP lost another P15 million in a local joint.

SP has no qualms about flushing cash down the drain. Curiously, when relatives ask for help, SP turns stingy.

Loved One tried to borrow money for tuition but SP waved LO away, saying “School is a waste of time.” To think that the loan sought was a measly amount compared to SP’s massive losses at the casino.

Quick notes

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Alluring Star and Cute Heartthrob had a fling while working together in the past.

During a break on the set, the couple disappeared for 30 minutes. The director asked staff and crew to look for AS and CH but no one could locate the stars—until someone saw the sneaky pair emerging from the rooftop of a building.

Talk about a high tryst.

Raymart Santiago kay Claudine Barretto: “Sa dulo nito, pareho lang kaming talo!” (Okay, just don’t take us down with you.)

Greta (Gretchen Barretto) nagbanta, may pasasabugin tungkol sa pangmomolestiya ng taong dating malapit sa kanya: “Hindi na ako ang dating Gretchen na sinasaktan n’yo!” (Move over, Kardashians.)

Resbak ni Gretchen sa ina: “May kasabihan tayo na ang kakambal ng sinungaling ay magnanakaw!” (Enough, enough! Enough with these exclamation points!)

Sigaw ng mga nanay: “Greta, matakot ka sa karma!” (Ayan kasi, pinapatulan naman natin e.)

Nakakakilabot na ang pagbabatuhan ng mag-inang Gretchen at Inday Barretto. (And they will stop only when we stop watching, which is unlikely.)

Handang isakripisyo ang buhay para sa matandang dyowa; “Daisy,” lalantad na, lalabanan ang nagdemanda kay Freddie Aguilar. (Is this absolutely necessary?)

Wala nang makakapigil pa kahit kasuhan ng DSWD. Kasalang Ka Freddie at ng 16-year-old GF tuloy na, suportado ng mga kapamilya; Sey ng nanay ng girl: “Hindi kami mukhang pera!” (Was this ever the issue?)

Ruffa Gutierrez walang sex appeal, ayaw patulan ng mga tibo. (A hasty generalization, we think.)

Angel Locsin imposibleng makipagbalikan kay Phil Younghusband; matindi ang naging “away.” (And they have every right to get back together or not.)

Maja Salvador sa relasyon nila ni Gerald Anderson: “Sorry, sorry po! Puwedeng sa amin na lang ’yun?” (Only if you stop using it to promote anything.)

Aljur Abrenica: “Okey kami ni Kylie (Padilla), hindi kami naghiwalay.” (Okay then.)

Phoemela Baranda itinago ang anak ng 15 taon. (If it was never in any job description, why should we have a say in that?)

Jennylyn Mercado kinakawawa lang daw ng mga lalake, pinalalabas na masamang babae. (Consenting adults, people.)

LJ Reyes nagsawa na kay Paulo Avelino; si Renz Fernandez ang bagong BF? (This is so not moving.)
