There’s something new on the face of Mysterious Jezebel.
Colleagues can’t quite explain it, but MJ looks a tad different.
MJ, who used to be cute and cuddly, has slimmed down considerably. Along with the weight loss came sharper cheekbones, a more patrician nose.
MJ now looks like the long-lost twin of Alluring Maiden, who is notorious for having undergone all sorts of procedures. MJ and AM once had the chance to collaborate on a failed venture.
Never knew this kind of addiction could be contagious?
Wholesale makeovers
Speaking of cosmetic junkies.
Vociferous Tyro knows only too well that physical allure comes at a steep price. VT, who has moolah to burn, has embarked on an aggressive reinvention campaign.
Impressed with the results, VT recommended the same treatments to colleagues. VT and company soon became regular customers of a high-end clinic. The entire gang eventually went under the knife. Rumor has it that one whole person can be assembled from the sum of their discarded parts!
Talk about wholesale makeovers.
Rampaging bull
Outrageous Rebel went berserk recently.
Absolutely livid, OR unleashed a mouthful against Erring Kin. No heartbreak was left untackled; no heartache left untouched.
Just as sudden as the outburst, OR later appeared more subdued. Perhaps calmer souls had intervened.
Gone was the fire and brimstone.
It was back to regular programming, folks.
Meet Goldilocks
While we are on the subject of rancorous celebs…
There was a time Ravishing Rose was the thorn in loved ones’ side.
RR tends to have poor choices in lovers.
After a devastating breakup, RR bounced back with an affair that was just as doomed—with a former beau’s equally dubious pal! Then, RR was rumored to be the sweetheart of a much older man who was already committed to someone else.
Seems RR has finally stumbled on the Goldilocks zone. RR is now dating a guy who’s not too old, not too juvenile—but just right in terms of mental and actual age.
Exhibit A
From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:
Gays and gals are having a field day on the set.
A mole relates that Charming Jock is an incorrigible exhibitionist. CJ would often emerge from the dressing room wearing nothing but skimpy underwear, matched with a naughty grin.
It’s as if CJ gets a kick out of seeing all those ogling admirers.
Even if the air-conditioner was on full-blast, even if it was freezing cold in the studio, CJ would brazenly strip away.
CJ would do anything for the fans!
