Unknown to Controversial Star and Poor Partner, a domestic altercation has been caught on camera. In the privacy of their home, they fought in front of a picture window within the range of a clueless neighbor’s CCTV unit.
The squabble was thus recorded for posterity and, a mole notes, can be used as “evidence” in the future.
Curiously, CS was not the underdog in the video. PP turned out to be the punching bag.
Ouch!
Lesson unlearned
When Close Buddy got in trouble, Longtime Supporter was reluctant to intervene.
LS wanted CB to reflect on the problem and learn a valuable life lesson.
Unfortunately, Famous Pal shelled out the moolah for CB. LS didn’t want CB to sink deeper into debt, so LS quietly settled the loan with FP.
CB has lost not only friends but a bright future in the biz as well as a result of this setback.
No newcomer
It’s not the first time that Show biz Insider got enmeshed in an ugly rumor.
SI is allegedly smitten with Seasoned Looker. Thing is, SL, like SI, is neither young nor single. SI was previously linked with Flashy Colleague who was involved with Colorful Personality at the time.
SL is no greenhorn to controversy, either. SL was once rumored to be the lover of Wealthy Benefactor.
When confronted, SI vehemently denied the scuttlebutt.
Of course.
Big spender
No wonder Flamboyant Celeb is well-loved by groveling hangers-on and hunky “boylets.” FC regularly treats groupies to heady nights of bar-hopping.
The bill for one such outing amounted to a whopping P55,000—before tips.
FC should learn to save a little. No one stays on top forever. Fair-weather friends disappear when the going gets tough.
But FC is undaunted, splurging like there’s no tomorrow.
Fire breather
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
On the set of Popular Show, Gifted Performer is the subject of snarky comments because of his oral hygiene problem.
Colleagues would avoid the mic that GP had used because it stank big time.
Who knew?! GP is always impeccably dressed. Wonder how his Gorgeous Sweetie can stand the dragon breath?
Must be love.
Top of the Talk Shows
For those who missed last weekend’s TV gabfests (and why we are moved, if we are moved):
Joey de Leon on Claudine Barretto’s recent pictorial intended to show her scars allegedly caused by physical abuse: “Hindi po pictorial ang tawag diyan—peklatorial!” (Ang pakla.)
Pauleen Luna on rumors that she and Vic Sotto fought because of “two girls” getting too friendly: “Parang tapos na kami sa stage na ’yun. We’re secure with each other.” (Good place to be.)
Jaclyn Jose on daughter Andi Eigenmann moving out: “Nu’ng una masakit; talagang hinanda ko ang sarili ko. Pero eventually, na-realize ko na, tama, let her live her life.” (Good call.)
Ai-Ai de las Alas on her love life: “Happy ako at tahimik … dun tayo sa non-show biz … ’Yung pakonti-konting tsismis, OK lang. Pero ’yung marami, ayoko na … natuto na ’ko.” (Korek!)
Maricel Soriano on slapping Dingdong Dantes 20 times during filming of their confrontation scene for “Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real”: “Binilang? Nakakaloka! Actually, totoo ’yun … pero napakabait na bata niya, ako pa ang inalala pagkatapos ng eksena.” (Seniority? Karmic retribution?)
Cristine Reyes on working with Heart Evangelista in “Trophy Wife”: “OK siya sa eksena, OK sa trabaho … wala naman akong nakitang problema.” (How … detached.)
Cristine on why she wants to stop doing sexy films: “Every Sunday nagsisimba na ako … and number one na nagko-contradict dun eh ’yung image ko.” (Let’s see something else from you then.)
Coleen Garcia on making her relationship with Billy Crawford official: “We were already there, only the label was missing.” (Good. Others don’t like labels, kahit obvious na.)
Billy on Coleen: “I want to be the best man for her.” (You didn’t previously? Guess not.)
Nikki Gil on getting back to the dating scene: “I tried going out with different [guys]. I know what I want, and I don’t want to waste anyone’s time or mine.” (Were the last five years a waste of time? There’s the plug for your show!)
Daniel Padilla on going topless in “She’s Dating the Gangster”: “Malaki naman ang tiyan ko, kaya ’di malaswa!” (Right.)
