Powerful star shells out cash for cast and crew

Emerging from a personal crisis, Powerful Star was in a lousy mood and unwilling to face the cameras. PS decided to cancel a shoot just to take off from the fuss and frenzy of the biz. But since the deadline was fast approaching, everyone was soon headed back to work.

PS paid for everything and everyone when the shoot resumed, shelling out a lot of cash. Seems PS’ well of moolah is bottomless. No wonder Noisy Celeb is always green with envy and eyes PS with contempt.

Obsession

Feisty Personality wonders why Sultry Rival ends up getting romantically involved with her (FP’s) former lovers. SR has hooked up with at least two of them.

Is that merely by chance or is SR obsessed with FP? Asked about it, FP seemed annoyed and bristled, “I’d rather not talk about SR.”

Secret conflict

Observers wondered why Top Honchos decided to launch Prime Project at the same time as a High-profile Event.

Seasoned Insider worked hard on both PP and HE. Why did TH pit SI’s pet projects against each other?

A spy claims SI didn’t see eye to eye with TH. While making PP, SI often clashed with TH.

Hmmm.

Shipwreck

Perhaps Glamorous Celebrity was merely overcome by excitement.

GC looked like a million bucks during a splashy event held aboard a luxury liner.

Without batting her thickly mascara-ed eyelash, a thrilled GC gushed for the entire world to hear: “I feel like I’m on the Titanic!”

Girl, that ship sank.

Did GC even get to see the movie? Or is she waiting for Leonardo DiCaprio to sweep her off her feet?

Oh, wait, Leo died in that disaster flick.

Berserk

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Friends are seriously concerned about Talented Performer, who purportedly went berserk after bingeing on illicit substances. Apparently, TP got despondent over a split-up.

AIZA Seguerra and Liza Diño are drunk with happiness. ARNOLD ALMACEN

It’s not TP’s first heartbreak, so this latest debacle must have been really awful.

A mole reports seeing TP running around claiming that unknown (and unseen) assailants were after him. A pal says TP is now picking up the pieces.

Top of the Talk Shows

For those who missed last weekend’s TV gabfests (and why we are moved, if we are moved):

• Derek Ramsay on his estranged wife charging him for violating the Antiviolence Against Women and their Children Act: “We’re all for the truth—it’s all that matters.” (That applies to everything. Now, about that charge…?)

• Andre Paras, asked about his love life: “I’m single and concentrating on my career, studies and basketball.” (Give the kid a break.)

• Alex Gonzaga on Ryan Bang saying she led him on: “Siguro misunderstanding … Pero kung ’di talaga kami magkakaintindihan, ayoko nang ipilit na maging friends … Tainted na ’yung friendship.” (Ah, clarity. It’s refreshing.)
  

  ANDRE Paras wants to focus on career, studies and basketball, not romance.

• Ryan on mistaking Alex’s thoughtfulness for something deeper: “Sa kanya friends. Ako OA, akala ko something special.” (Ah, candor. Also refreshing.)

• Phil Younghusband on his rumored relationship with Bangs Garcia: “We’re not a couple … I hang out with her, we enjoy each other’s company and get along really well. That’s it.” (Sounds like a relationship, kahit hindi romantic. No need to be defensive.)

• Aiza Seguerra on her dream, with fiancée Liza Diño, of having a baby through artifical insemination: “Sana kayanin ng budget!” (Libreng mangarap, as they say. A dream for two is another story.)

• Aiza on why her song for Liza is “Araw, Gabi”: “Dahil araw, gabi, nilalasing niya ako sa saya.” (Hic!)

• Liza on her relationship with Aiza: “I know that I’ve found the one … We don’t just complement each other; we are one.” (Let’s drink to that.)
  

  First ever Kapamilya actress Kathryn Bernardo is the face of Chic, the first nail polish brand to have a celeb endorser.

• Matteo Guidicelli, asked if he feels that Sarah Geronimo is the one: “I hope so. I try to be optimistic. But in every relationship, there are challenges; it’s not an easy ride.” (Hedging this early?)

• Matteo on how he won Sarah’s trust: “I’m just honest all the time—about everything I think, everything I feel.” (Ah!)

• Matteo on Sarah becoming more independent: “She’s standing up for herself …
• Ipinaglaban niya din ako. I’m very, very proud of her.” (Aww.)

• Matteo on Sarah, as a whole: “She’s worth everything.” (That’s nice. Next time, let’s break it down.)
