There are numerous sightings of Vociferous Celeb in a smoky Quezon City bar. Perhaps VC thought the watering hole was a perfect place to unwind in without being recognized.
He is often spotted there with Hunky Cutie, who is from VC’s rival studio, and who was linked to Bubbly Starlet.
These days, HC and VC are openly dating. But VC is also seen around town with Handsome Stud, sticking close to the turf (HS is from VC’s home studio). Maybe VC wants to prove that love is above the network wars: Make love, not war!
Mission impossible
Pretty Starlet turned coy when asked if Cute Heartthrob was wooing her.
Asked if romance between them was unattainable because of the rumor concerning CH’s gender preference, PS laughed nervously.
Alas, PS has also fallen victim to similar gossip. Friends suspect that having been loveless for so long, she has turned gay as well.
In any case, PS’ gender preference shouldn’t be a big deal because she is a gifted and versatile performer.
But CH and PS as a couple? Mission impossible.
Disconcerting
Matinee Idol’s public declarations of love for Major Star have become disconcerting, verging on suspicious.
MS’ supporters have always feared that potential suitors would only ride on her coattails. And here comes MI, constantly yakking about MS.
Someone should advise MI to rein it in, because it’s close to being interpreted as empty chatter. Talk is cheap, especially in Show Town. It’s best for MI to let his actions do the talking.
Master puppeteer
Who could be behind Gorgeous Hunk’s drastic moves? GH’s latest career choices seem foolhardy.
Insiders suspect that Influential Celebrity has been advising GH. Wealthy Benefactor is regarded as another possible puppeteer.
Curiously, Noisy Personality has become chummy with GH.
NP rushed to GH’s defense when Popular Icon went on a PR offensive against the boy.
NP has connections to both IC and WB. Hmmm.
Lovestruck
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Veteran Bombshell is no spring chicken, but she’s acting like a love-struck teener.
VB fell hard for much Younger Beau. Talk about Cougar of the Year—VB is more than twice YB’s age.
A spy says VB showers YB with gifts. The little money that VB makes goes straight to YB.
Concerned relatives told VB to save a little for herself; some urged her to leave YB. To which VB retorted, indignantly: “But this is true love!”
Maternal love?
$25M in one night
NICE, France—Leonardo DiCaprio has raised more than $25 million at a charity gala for his foundation, which aims to protect the environment and endangered species.
The fundraiser late Wednesday in the chic Riviera seaside resort of Saint-Tropez included an auction of Hollywood and rock ’n’ roll memorabilia and works by Damien Hirst and Pablo Picasso.
It also included DiCaprio’s Harley Davidson motorbike bearing the signatures of Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro and a guitar belonging to U2 frontman Bono.
The 500 guests shelled out from $7,000 to $130,000 to attend the event. AFP
