Rumors of lovely couple’s breakup swiftly quashed

Nadine Lustre

After the romance has run its course comes the usual high drama.

Rumors have been swirling in the biz: That Handsome Hunk has called it quits with Lovely Girlfriend.

There was talk of a messy separation sparked by disagreements over financial matters.

To HH’s credit, he quickly quashed the malicious intrigues spreading all over town.

HH insists that he has nothing but the most noble of intentions for LG.

Well, HH and LG’s most recent photo was posted online—indicating that all is well between the two, and those controversies are just idle chatter.

Karma bites back

Hurt by the departure of Glamorous Ward, Scheming Insider built up Stunning Rival as retaliation.

SR soon became a threat to GW’s career. SR started filching projects away from GW.

Success, however, had a strange effect on SR.

SR did the unthinkable. SR betrayed and abandoned SI.

Now, that was the ultimate comeuppance.

Karma redux

Karma finally knocked on Scheming Player’s door.

SP is notorious for outwitting (and exploiting) newbies in the past. Pretty Starlet and Savvy Celeb, however, could see through SP from the get-go.

A source says SC may look dainty, but she isn’t the type who suffers fools in silence.

“That’s why SP takes extra care in dealing with SC,” a mole insists.

PS, for her part, went ballistic when SP tried to pull a fast one on her.

SV was stunned that fragile PS was also tough as nails.

Starlet’s secret

Many observers are wondering how Perky Starlet can sustain a lavish lifestyle when she is jobless these days.

PS is frequently spotted splurging at the mall with older “gentlemen-friends.”

The formerly sweet and wholesome ingénue has succumbed to the oldest profession.

That is the secret of PS’ extravagant shopping sprees.

From hoarse to worst

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Upstart Performer has earned a nasty reputation in the biz. Coworkers avoid working with UP, who is described as arrogant and unprofessional.

UP can also be hard-headed. Handlers keep reminding UP to quit smoking. UP refused to heed their advice.

Soon enough, UP’s voice was adversely affected.

UP can no longer hit high notes. Even signature songs are now too difficult for the perennially hoarse UP.
