Those in the know have confirmed that there is something fishy about the budding friendship of Handsome Hunk and Closeted Insider.
User-friendly CI has the uncanny ability of hooking up with people who can provide the right breaks in the biz.
HH is CI’s latest target. CI invited HH to several splashy events, in preparation for a high-profile project.
CI and HH painted the town red, white, pink and fuchsia.
According to another source, the “nocturnal” sessions have made HH and CI “closer” than ever.
Well, HH is an incorrigible flirt.
Starlet wars redux
Talk of the town is the raging word war between two controversial celebs.
No, we’re not referring to the pugnacious pair, Baron Geisler and Kiko Matos. (The two actors have set up a grudge match at press time.)
The latest scorching-hot chika: Seasoned Starlet has unleashed quite a mouthful against Enigmatic Cutie.
SS has threatened to reveal EC’s deep, dark secrets. This talakathon could get ugly.
The squabble started after EC made the mistake of bringing up SS’ sordid past in the heat of an argument.
SS saw red. EC never knew what hit him.
Frenemy’s fury
Duplicitous Personality has always had an axe to grind against Flamboyant Frenemy.
For some strange reason, DP and FF became extra chummy. Perhaps DP is a firm believer in the dictum: “Keep your friends close, your enemies closer.”
It was only a matter of time before DP and FF had a major tiff, though. DP carelessly revealed FF’s secret in public.
Was DP clueless or was it done in bad faith?
FF thinks the revelation is dripping with malice.
Uh-oh.
Explosive
Seems Veteran Beauty is no match against Screen Icon, who can be quite tempestuous.
SI was irked by VB’s behavior on the road. VB tried to make up for a monumental faux pas, to no avail. During a recent gathering, VB was on needles and pins—scared that SI might “explode” any minute.
Luckily, SI was calm and collected all through the night.
Has SI forgiven VB?
That remains to be seen.
Ultimate betrayal
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Controversial Celebrity’s career is in limbo.
Dashing Charmer’s Generous Benefactor decided to help CC bounce back. GB gave CC a makeover. GB even encouraged CC to pursue plum assignments in the biz.
How did CC repay GB’s kindness? CC fooled around with DC.
Worse, CC is a bad influence on DC. Was CC the reason why DC rebelled against GB?
That’s show biz gratitude for you.
