Talk about pushy.
In his pursuit of Perky Starlet, Suave Newbie has found a fervent cheering squad in his Starstruck Relatives.
SRs desperately want SN and PS to end up together, and they are leaving no stone unturned in their mission.
They keep building up SN in front of PS who seems blissfully clueless. They really want SN to gain a foothold in the biz, and they think PS can provide the necessary first step.
Interestingly, PS introduced SN to certain influential insiders.
Voila!
SN has bagged all sorts of projects and is now even busier than PS.
Anuvayan!
Dry spell
Cute Charmer used to look deliciously fresh and brawny.
Not anymore.
After a string of professional and personal setbacks, CC has lost his former vim and vigor.
His body not only looks gaunt and scrawny, CC’s skin seems dry and unkempt, as well. Is it because Rich Benefactor frequently keeps CC up late at night? Does RB make CC work his fingers to the bone?
Ahem, ahem.
Investment
Hunky Performer wasn’t really bad looking to start with.
Still, HP felt the need to alter his appearance.
HP vanished for a while. Upon his return, HP looked a tad different—as if he had just joined a teenage boy band.
HP’s handlers are notorious for tampering with their wards’ looks.
Good thing, HP didn’t scrimp and saved up for the procedure by hiring reputable professionals.
After all, HP regards the surgery as a worthwhile “investment.”
War of scents
Vociferous Personality is fuming.
VP suspects that Wealthy Relations are maltreating Beloved Kin.
VP is aghast that WRs kept giving BK smelly cologne and other cheap presents. VP insists that WRs can well afford to buy the latest scents that are popular among the youth.
As luck would’ve it, a friend gifted VP with an expensive designer fragrance.
With dispatch, VP sent the perfume to BK.
“I don’t want BK to feel deprived,” VP exclaimed.
Unlike a virgin
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Insiders are snickering behind Bubbly Novice’s back.
Handlers are grooming BN as a sweet, innocent, wholesome leading lady. Unfortunately, BN doesn’t quite fit the bill.
When a tender love scene was shot with Handsome Costar, BN acted all shy and scared.
In the first place, BN need not worry, because HC is as harmless as a toy gun. Moreover, a spy insists that BN is not exactly inexperienced when it comes to such torrid encounters.
BN was a pro, back in the day, and often kept grizzled and affluent clients company.
