Peers discover pert starlet’s mean streak

Colleagues have finally unmasked Youthful Maiden.

They’ve discovered YM’s true character, which is hardly pleasant.

They should’ve heeded former associates’ warning. Old pals swear that YM has always been a nightmare to work with. They claim YM is bratty. After encountering all sorts of hurdles, YM haughtily gave up on a project.

YM then “unfriended” the people who knew about the debacle. It was as if YM was determined to erase the shameful past. But then again, no secret remains hidden in the biz for long.

The back-scratchers

Needless to say, Bodacious Jouster’s show of generosity was not done selflessly.

Not a few people raised their brows when BJ rushed to aid Pugnacious Rabble-rouser. They were certain BJ had an ulterior motive, which became readily apparent to even the most casual observers.

BJ is cooking up something huge. Indeed, PR can reciprocate, by helping BJ avail of certain hard-to-secure resources.

Quid pro quo?

By hook or by crook

Here’s a head-scratcher.

Instead of hiding in shame because of a series of mishaps, Malevolent Celebrity is barreling ahead with a rather expensive venture.

Is this proof that all those intrigues are not entirely baseless? MC allegedly engaged in certain questionable deals. Voila! MC is now back in the game—and how!

According to a mole, the budget for the aforementioned endeavor was also pumped up by several millions.

Rated A for Audacious.

Early bird special

Dazzling Artist made not a few kibitzers green with envy.

DA carelessly gabbed about a lavish adventure in public. As expected, intrigue-mongers swiftly pounced on the nonissue. How could DA afford such luxuries? Well, DA started really early.

DA allegedly hooked up with Controversial Fellow decades ago. Insiders surmised that DA had accumulated several prime assets with the help of CF’s powerful cronies.

Progressive deterioration

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Before fame and fortune beckoned, Luminous Nymphet and Perky Chaperone were often spotted in major firm’s headquarters.

LN and PC would hang out in the office all day—to remind execs of their existence. LN was extra chummy with the staff, granting selfies left and right.

Fast forward to the here and now: LN suddenly became finicky and snobbish. A coworker requested for a video greeting for a pal’s birthday, but LN declined, claiming they were in a hurry.

Has success gone to LN’s pretty little head?
