Mystery solved: There was an urban legend concerning the torrid affair of Cute Heartthrob and Gawky Pal.
Turned out the supposed fling was invented by the attack dogs of top company.
The hell hounds wanted to get even with CH, who turned down a promising project with the studio, a spy related. They thought CH’s reputation would be destroyed by the scandal.
Alas, the intrigue was quickly forgotten and CH continued to reap success far, far away from the firm’s malicious minions.
Breakup playmate
A wild breakup rumor spread around town.
The gossip proved to be a false alarm since Handsome Hunk and Gorgeous Girlfriend’s relationship was still going strong, thank you.
Who would concoct such a tall tale?
Don’t look at HH’s former partner, Chatty Personality. CP is much too busy to bother with other people’s personal affairs.
Chos!
Not-so-innocent
Flamboyant Personality envisioned Budding Beau as a naive newbie from a sleepy town.
Soon enough, BB revealed his true colors.
FP discovered that BB was as frisky as any urban gigolo. BB has been around, no doubt.
Prior to FP, BB was involved with other gays from show biz. BB desperately wanted to be popular and surmised FP and company were his tickets to instant fame.
Insecurity blanket
Feisty Actress threw a tantrum and rejected an offer to top-bill a high-profile project.
FA got a tad insecure because she assumed she would merely play support to Visiting Costar.
If only FA bothered to read the script, she would’ve realized that her role was meatier than VC’s.
With dispatch, producers found a suitable replacement in much younger Perky Starlet.
Peace offering
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Controversial Celeb wanted to patch things up with
Estranged Sweetheart, to make amends for the nasty scandal they got entangled in in the past.
CC and Present Partner tried to set a double date with ES and Current Spouse. CC wanted closure.
CS, however, nixed the peace offering. There was no need to mend fences since they already moved on years ago, said CS.
Top of the Talk Show
For those who missed last weekend’s “Startalk” on GMA 7 (and why we are moved, if we are moved):
Ai-Ai de las Alas on why she plans to help Jiro Manio meet his biological father in Japan: “Adopted din ako ’di ba? So noong hindi ko pa alam kung sino parents ko, ’di nawawala ’yung feeling na parang lagi kang may hinahanap.” (Let the search end in Japan.)
Alden Richards on the sudden popularity of his “Eat Bulaga!” tandem with Maine “Yaya Dub” Mendoza: “Nakakagulat… Nakakatuwa kasi ang daming nagtu-tweet sa ’kin.” (How tweet it is.)
Martin del Rosario on his alleged photo scandal: “Pinagtawanan ko lang. ’Di naman affected family ko.” (Next please.)
Kylie Padilla, asked if she was traumatized by her past romantic relationships: “No, dahil marami naman akong natutunan.” (Good for you.)
Mahal on ex-boyfriend Jimboy Salazar’s sudden death: “Salamat sa pag-aalaga mo… Hindi ko kaya ang nangyari. Hindi ko akalaing mawawala si Jimboy ngayon.” (Sigh.)
