Star’s pal goes from ‘vanished’ to ‘banished’

Is Kim Chiu secretly snickering over another celeb couple’s breakup?

Admired Personality and Dogged Supporter were once inseparable, with DS following AP around like a lovelorn puppy.

Without warning, DS vanished. Actually, the more accurate term would be “was banished.”

AP discovered that DS had been less than honest in money matters. DS could not explain a number of discrepancies in AP’s finance records.

Worse, DS was suspected of emptying the contents of AP’s bank account—and was sent packing—with dispatch.

Selective mischief

Tempestuous Diva is a terror only to those she can push around.

Similarly Fiery Artist admitted that TD had behaved well during their time together on a project. But, a mole insists, that was only because TD was deathly afraid of FA.

Meek and unassuming coworkers have countless horror stories about TD’s unreasonable outbursts.

TD the bully chooses her victims carefully, a spy claims.

Meddlesome minion

Noisy Frenemy attended a solemn gathering organized by Controversial Celebrity.

Finicky NF was not impressed with the décor. The next day, NF sent Nosy Minion over to spruce up the place.

CC’s Accommodating Kin allowed NM to make some changes, but requested that one corner should remain untouched.

Undaunted NM turned the whole place upside down, tampering with AK’s sacred nook.

AK went berserk and threw NM out.

Is this why there is brewing tension between NF and CC?

Intrigue-monger

Feisty Insider can use the alias “Nanette Inventor.” According to a source, FI is notorious for “inventing” rumors about different celebrities.

Pokwang wants to be a mother again.

FI’s favorite target is Seasoned Star, a sitting duck for unsavory tattle tales.

Turned out, SS’ Devious Relative is behind FI’s incessant attacks.

FI once whipped up a fictional controversy about Popular Celeb, too.

In this case, Envious Enemy was the one who goaded FI to concoct the gossip.

FI and EE eventually had a nasty falling out as well.

Emotional eating

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Former Glamorous Starlet is fighting a losing battle with the bulge.

Concerned pals suspect that GS resorts to emotional eating when the going gets tough.

GS is not too happy about being the family breadwinner, unable to enjoy the fruits of her labor, which go straight to household bills.

GS ends up rushing to the ref for comfort and joy—loading up on sweets and other fattening goodies.
