Big stars’ war takes an ugly turn
Flamboyant Personality is certain that Vociferous Frenemy is behind the clumsy effort to sabotage a Lucrative Enterprise.
VF could not accept defeat and would not think twice about unleashing minions to spread lies, FP explained.
FP is just waiting for the right time before exposing VF’s countless shenanigans.
In any case, FP had the last laugh.
VF’s latest venture floundered spectacularly.
Karma finally caught up with VF, FP scoffed.
Jinxed
Scandalous Celeb has reached the point of no return.
In order to drum up interest in Latest Project, SC has cooked up all sorts of intrigues.
Alas, SC’s valiant efforts are all in vain.
SC’s LP is doomed from the start.
As if SC isn’t enough to jinx LP, bad luck hounds the other participants in the beleaguered undertaking.
LP has surpassed its quota on notoriety.
Separation anxiety
Unlike Elsa of “Frozen,” Veteran Celeb has a wee bit problem “letting go.”
Seems VC got used to the perks of power and privilege, and is reluctant to slink quietly into the background.
VC wants to stay on centerstage—and why not!
Rumor has it that VC will stop at nothing to regain lost glory.
No wonder underlings in VC’s turf are getting anxious. They fear a bloody skirmish between VC and Perceived Rival.
Abangan.
Mud-slinging galore
Seems there is a relentless campaign against Popular Newbies.
Since the attacks against PNs failed big time, professional hitmen are training their sights on other players.
Rival Company’s Attack Dogs have been slinging mud against PNs’ Troubled Coworker and Notorious Benefactor.
Truth to tell, TC and NB are hardly paragons of virtue, but will they adversely affect PNs’ promising future?
Drowning one’s sorrows
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Hot Celeb is often spotted bar-hopping with friends these days.
HC and pals would throw pa-morningan drinking parties in various nightspots. Apparently HC wants to forget a heart-rending split-up.
For several months, HC tried to patch things up with Luckless Lover to no avail.
LL clearly gave up on HC, who had the tendency to fool around.
Worse, LL’s family frowned upon HC and had been praying for the breakup for the longest time.
Top of the talk shows
For those who missed last weekend’s gabfests on TV. (And why we are moved, if we are moved.)
Pia Wurtzbach on her flight back to the Philippines: “Sa sobrang saya ko, hindi ako makakain at makatulog sa eroplano!” (Sleepless in shuttle?)
Pia on being proud to be Pinoy: “Ang iniisip ko talaga, kung ako mananalo, ang first word ko dapat ‘Mabuhay!’” (But then, Steve Harvey had other plans.)
Pia on fulfilling one’s dreams: “If you have a dream … Don’t give up.” (You know the drill: Try and try again…)
Enrique Gil on his new soap opera with Liza Soberano: “It’s been a while [since we did a show], so I just want it to be as enjoyable as before.” (See Nestor U. Torre’s column on p. E1.)
ZANJOE Marudo
Zanjoe Marudo (who admitted that he and Bea Alonzo had already broken up) asked if he believes in second chances: “Naniniwala ako sa second chance, third chance, fourth chance…” (Nth chance… moving on.)
CRISTINE Reyes
Cristine Reyes, Zanjoe’s costar in a new soap, asked about the actor’s troubles: “I guess wala akong kwentang friend, because busy ako sa life ko ngayon!” (When in doubt, magbusy-busyhan.)
Angel Locsin on being hit by Vilma Santos in their new movie: “Kapag bago ang artista, walang kontrol. Si Tita ang galing magkontrol!” (And the award for best slapper goes to…)
Vilma Santos on Angel: “She’s one of those I truly respect as an artist and as a person.” (Daughter-in-law material?)TV Patrol, 24 Oras
