Flashy star shirks frenemy’s minion
SARAH Geronimo
Behind the scenes at a festive gathering, Flashy Celeb was locked in a serious chat with Showbiz Insider.
FC was consulting SI about the other guests—specifically, who among them could be trusted.
SI gave the thumbs-up on almost all the attendees but one. SI reminded FC: “That guy is close to Nasty Frenemy.”
FC’s own suspicion: “NF may be spying on us.” So, FC was cordial to everyone except NF’s minion, and made sure not to say anything incriminating. “I may get in trouble again,” FC said. SI agreed, “NF can be vindictive.”
XIAN Lim considers himself a travel junkie
Gaunt gigolo
He used to be a dreamboat. Now Hunky Actor looks gaunt and haggard. Spy says HA is hooked on drugs. Which is also why he has turned to the oldest profession.
It’s a pity. HA is a gifted performer. However, he was once overheard remarking, “What will I do with an acting trophy? You can’t even pawn it.” Not like his body.
Sadly, HA’s addiction has lost him not a few customers.
Starlet wars
There is trouble brewing between these budding divas.
KATHRYN Bernardo got bashed for her legs
Right before a show, a fan requested a souvenir photo with two popular teenagers, Perky Beauty and Mestiza Newcomer, who were seated next to each other in the waiting area.
PB and MN were all smiles in front of the camera—like they were best friends. But once the giddy groupie turned her back, PB and MN went back to pointedly ignoring one another. Unfortunately, another shutterbug caught that postsnapshot moment. Tupperware party!
Backstage boy
Backstage at another splashy event, Cute Hunk unwittingly revealed his true colors.
On stage, CH was the portrait of pure virility.
A revealing photograph debunked the macho posturing as it caught CH prepping for the show, looking dainty and demure—so out of place in the testosterone-fueled gathering!
COCO Martin doesn’t need to undress to wow fans
Was CH distracted by the other scantily-clad boys in the room? There have been lots of rumors about him.
“If a picture paints a thousand words,” CH’s snapshot screams: Confirmed, 10,000 times!
Wardrobe malfunction
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Hot Hunk, a certified closet case, looked dazed and confused at a high-profile shindig. Apparently, HH had just split up with Gorgeous Boyfriend, a male model.
HH absentmindedly sashayed down the ramp, not knowing that a wardrobe malfunction had left very little to gawkers’ imagination. Or was he simply unruffled by the inadvertent exposure?
SHARON Cuneta is serious about her weight-loss regimen
Worse, was HH flaunting his wares for future partners? While the gays in the dressing room were checking out HH’s family jewels, the unwitting flasher was inspecting fellow lovely lads’ merchandise.

Xian’s big fear
Travel junkie Xian Lim’s scary experiences include misplaced luggage (in the United States and Canada) and crawling through the Cu Chi tunnels in Ho Chi Minh City with his mom. “My mom started panicking. The tourists behind us were getting antsy and I had to tell her to calm down, but I was also terrified. That space was tight!”

At the end of the tunnel, Xian quickly took a selfie, but stopped himself from posting the photo online because of another scare. “High data roaming charges,” he recalled. “I waited till I was back in the hotel.”
With multiple trips lined up next month, the avid Instagram user has found a solution: He’s the endorser of Globe Telecom’s P599/day flat-rate data roaming. “That means nonstop tweeting and photo sharing! I can also check my e-mail and use online maps.”
