Handsome beau dumps shopaholic sweetie

Inquiring minds have always been curious about the real reason behind the breakup of this once promising show biz couple.

In his desire to let off steam, Handsome Personality confided to an insider that Erstwhile Sweetheart had a rather irritating habit.

ES would frequently go on lavish shopping sprees. Alas, ES would sometimes ask HP to pay for the pricey purchases.

HP soon got fed up and scampered away.

Should we blame Rich Ex, who had a bottomless pit of moolah and often showered ES with expensive presents? Seemed ES simply got used to having lovers take care of the bill.

Wander boy

Casual observers think Charming Cutie is a loyal and honest beau to High-profile Girlfriend.
Well, CC is quite the opposite.

A coworker reports that CC is an insatiable playboy, flirting with every pretty girl who wanders into his orbit.
Nothing escapes CC’s roving eye.

When there’s a gig abroad or in the province, CC makes sure HG is left by her lonesome at home.
Poor gal.

Real score

Now, it’s becoming clear why Controversial Hottie jilted Obsessed Buddy.

CH is simply not into OB—or anyone of the opposite sex, for that matter.

Turned out CH was lusting after similarly Salacious Colleague.

OB was despondent, of course, when CH and SC met and engaged in a torrid affair on the set of a reality show.

But then again, CH and SC soon parted ways. CH swiftly bounced back and shacked up with Gorgeous Benefactor—again, leaving OB high and dry.

Reality bites!

Lip service

Remember how Ursula stole Ariel’s voice in “The Little Mermaid”?

Who knew it could happen in real life?

Flighty Performer is notorious for hard-partying ways.

One fine day, countless vices finally took its toll and damaged FP’s so-called powerhouse pipes right before an important show.

FP had no choice but to resort to desperate measures—lip-syncing the musical stylings of Naïve Upstart during an engagement.

NU was too clueless to complain.

Monster-in-law

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Turns out Nosy Kin is to be blamed for the dissolution of Lovely Celebrity’s marriage.

According to a mole, LC’s Exasperated Partner couldn’t stand NK, who constantly meddled in their affairs. Out of spite, EP fooled around, leaving LC heartbroken.

LC and EP inevitably parted ways.

Incorrigible NK, however, thinks the messy separation is a “blessing in disguise.”
