Sneaky gal gets just desserts

Stunning Nymphet is kinda flaky. She cheated on High-profile Boyfriend not with Hunky Ex-beau, as many people thought, but with Powerful Patron.

According to the grapevine, PP has been “taking care” of SN for years.

HB got wind of SN’s two-timing and dumped the batty starlet—by phone! SN was shocked. “HB did not think SN was worth the trouble of a confrontation,” says a spy.

Turns out, SN is a chronic cheater. Years ago, she betrayed Teenaged Sweetheart with a nonshow biz guy.

Hunk wars

Now it can be told.

Gorgeous Hunk is terribly insecure, threatened by Hot Heartthrob.

GH is irked because Top Exec seems to be playing favorites. HH is getting all the good breaks and GH is forced to make do with the crumbs.

GH’s handlers are wondering why TE favors HH.

HH is overly eager in pleasing the bosses, says a mole. GH is the opposite and tends to be aloof.

Perhaps TE prefers talents who would go the extra mile to land a role. Hmm.

Million-peso babe

Major Firm wanted to hire Gifted Performer for a splashy event.

MF’s reps sent an inquiry and were floored by GP’s asking price: a cool million for the brief stint.

MF backed out and has not decided on a replacement.

Perhaps the officials were daunted by a few other items on GP’s tech rider, including GP’s permanent team.

’Tis belt-tightening season for MF, it seems.

Unrecognizable

Showbiz Insider bumped into Seasoned Veteran, the toast of the town over two decades ago.

The years have not been kind on SV. Failing to recognize SV, SI did a double take; SV turned beet red.

SI is not to blame. SV has been hooked on cosmetic surgery because of best buddy, Glamorous Celebrity.

Big bad boss

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Influential Personality often makes a big show of joining the masses in an annual populist event.

In real life, IP is a snub who shuns the working class.

A source reports that IP instructed the house help to give nothing—not even water to drink—to the workers hired for a renovation. IP would not even smile at the carpenters.

Well, that pema-frown could be the result of Botox abuse.

Top of the Talk Shows

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

HEART Evangelista and fiancé Sen. Chiz Escudero plan to enjoy their engagement before thinking about a baby. KIMBERLY DELA CRUZ

Heart Evangelista on Sen. Chiz Escudero’s proposal bloopers: “Nung sinusuot niya ’yung singsing, nagkamali siya ng [daliri] …. Niloloko ko nga siya na pangalawang beses niya na ’yun, nagkamali pa!” (Whoops.)

Heart on reconciling with her mom: “Na-touch ako… kahit hindi pa ako 100-percent sure kung ano plano nila on the day of the wedding …. It was good enough for me that they allowed me to move on to the next chapter of my life.” (Parents are surprising creatures…)

CRISTINE Reyes is not engaged but says she is discussing it with her beau.

Heart, asked if she wants her dad to walk her down the aisle: “Sana …. Pero hirap siya mag-let go of me …. Ano man ang desisyon niya, tanggap ko.” (And miracles happen.)

Heart, asked if she’s ready to have a baby: “One at a time! I will enjoy my happy ending first.”  (Ending agad?)

Senator Chiz’s concern during his proposal: the fireworks.““Baka mamaya, magpaputok pero hindi sumagot. Nakakahiya sa kapitbahay!” (Good one.)

Senator Chiz’s message to Heart’s family and friends: “Hindi ko papabayaan; mamahalin at aalagaan ko ang inyong anak, kapatid, pinsan at kaibigan.” (Man enough.)

DANIEL Matsunaga is happy for ex-girlfriend’s engagement.

Heart on Senator Chiz: “I’ve been through a lot in my life. But with him around, I’m not so afraid of the world anymore.” (As in, the world talaga?)
