A Music industry insider passed on this cautionary tale.
Dazzling Diva has always been put to task for her unprofessional ways by peers.
Undeterred, Music Outfit prepared a special program for DD. The MO staff pulled out all the stops for DD. Alas, the poor staff waited for hours and DD was a no-show.
After snooping around, MO execs found out that DD accepted an income-generating gig on the same day as the canceled appointment.
With dispatch, DD was demoted to the D-list. Actually, she was blacklisted. A source alleged that DD’s projects with MO would be ignored, as far as the offended execs were concerned.
Insiders hope that DD has finally learned her lesson by now.
Beauty banshee
Who knew that willowy and winsome Controversial Celebrity has a mean streak?
CC purportedly has the nasty habit of screaming at underlings every time they make the flimsiest of mistakes.
CC sometimes gets “physical” and slaps erring employees.
A Defiant Staffer got fed up and threatened to resign if CC refused to change. Still CC was unrepentant.
DS abandoned ship and made it a point to warn people about double-faced CC.
Instant karma
Seems CC got her comeuppance even before DS could sing “Karma Chameleon.”
Apparently, CC got addicted to gambling. A mole claims that CC’s business empire is sinking fast because of massive losses incurred at the casino.
All those who’ve experienced CC’s wrath can only roll their eyes in mock sympathy.
Casino hunks
Seems there’s a virus going around in Show Town.
Other celebs have been similarly bitten by the gambling bug.
Handsome Hunk, who’s now rich and famous, was once a regular at the casino when he was still a trying-hard novice, according to a source.
It was HH’s way to escape the dreariness of his love life – especially since he was then involved with a fire-breathing virago.
Turned out another Gorgeous Hunk is addicted to the slot machines as well.
GH had to hook up with Notorious Gay to subsidize his trips to the online casino joint.
Publicity hungry
Seems Scandalous Artist hasn’t learned new tricks.
SA is still hooked on unnecessary (and cheap) gimmicks. The latest controversy, however, lacked originality and was a rehash of an old stunt.
Didn’t SA do the same thing years ago? It was even published in a book. Déjà vu, anyone?
Art of the deal
Seems Enterprising Actor’s “relationship” with Major Mogul has taught him a thing or two about making deals on his own.
EA is trying to increase his stock in Home Studio. What better way to do it than to spread rumors of an imminent transfer to Rival Studio?
True to form, EA denies the scuttlebutt and insists that he’s not bailing out. EA asserts that he’s only being proactive.
Top of the Tabloids
The top show biz news in the Inquirer tabloid Bandera (and why we are moved if we are moved):
