Miss Universe Philippines Pia Wurtzbach RICHARD A. REYES
Flaky Star is busted. Concerned fans discovered that FS had been using Noisy Pal to disparage other celebrities—including their idol, Popular Frenemy. NP also attacks Industry Icon, whom FS envies with alarming passion. As a reward for the demolition job, FS wines and dines NP.
PF’s supporters were able to gather evidence of FS and NP’s unholy alliance. Now, PF is 100-percent certain that all those nasty rumors NP has been peddling emanated from FS, whose bread and butter is… malice.
Foolish hearts
Disgraced Personality has always been attracted to Sultry Starlet.
When SS was a newbie, DP was rumored to be her first benefactor. Then SS found love in Influential Celebrity.
SS and IC played house for a while. Alas, DP crashed this supposedly ideal partnership and resumed the affair with SS.
Was this the reason that IC dumped SS?
And everyone thought it was IC who fooled around.
Reunited
Strict Parent of Perky Starlet will have to be extra vigilant.
When PS was just starting, she ended up in the arms of Notorious Lothario. Though SP watched PS like a hawk, NL still got his way.
At work, the young lovers would frequently disappear for extended periods.
Now that PS is headed for the big time, NL has cropped up in her life once again.
Much to SP’s dismay, PS and NL are reunited—on the set, for starters.

Insiders swear that YR inherited PL’s formidable personality. True enough, YR has gone fearlessly mano a mano against PL.
PL has never seen eye to eye with YR. A mole insists PL’s favorite is YR’s Reserved Sibling.
Perhaps PL sees too much of a mirror image in YR.
Self-loathing?
Attack dogs
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Major Star has just arrived in the studio and a number of self-proclaimed rivals are already quivering in their boots.
How else to explain this scuttlebutt that can be traced to Vociferous Celebrity’s camp?
VC’s attack dogs allege that some employees are scared of working with MS, and that MS often arrives late and spends a long time chatting with pals.
We just might see MS “reformed”… if only to spite VC.
Top of the talk shows
For those who missed last weekend’s TV gabfests (and why we are moved, if we are moved):
Willie Revillame on returning to GMA 7: “Dito naman ako nagsimula… [it’s] where I belong.” (So many homecomings lately!)
Jinkee Pacquiao on the Beverly Hills mansion that her husband Manny just purchased: “Pwede rin kaming lumipat doon…Feeling ko magugustuhan ko ’yung bahay. Nakita ko na sa pictures, maganda naman.” (Sa pictures?!!!)
Melissa Mendez on the altercation with fellow plane passengers that got her off-loaded: “Kasalanan ko rin po na nakasakit ako ng tao, ’di ko sinasadya na manampal… I was provoked—humiliated, embarrassed and degraded. And for that I’m sorry. I own up to my mistake.” (Good for you, taking it like an adult.)
Bb. Pilipinas-Universe Pia Wurtzbach, asked why President Aquino told his sister Kris to be nice to the beauty queen on the talk show “The Buzz”: “I mentioned that I was going… and I

was nervous because I saw the teaser. It’s not about my win, but about being linked to P-Noy and Phil Younghusband.” (Girl, please. It’s about the win.)
Kris upon hearing Pia’s answer: “So, tapos na? Oh my God! So, OK na?” (No comment.)
Nikki Gil, asked if she ever wondered why she isn’t so much in demand when she’s multitalented: “Not really. May desire to do more pero nangingibabaw na I’m just thankful to be even here.” (Trends come and go; upswings come to those who wait.)
Nikki, asked what made her accept her nonshow biz boyfriend’s marriage proposal: “It just made so much sense not just in my head, but in my heart… there was peace in my heart.” (Plus, he’s cute!) Startalk, The Buzz
