An intoxicating alternative
A film company initially wanted to get a rising young singer to record the theme song of a movie it was producing.
The artist, however, turned down the offer, because he was in the middle of finishing his album and didn’t want any distraction.
The movie outfit looked for replacements and had to ultimately settle for Gritty Jock (GJ).
GJ turned up in the recording studio inebriated, which understandably worried his coworkers.
Luckily, the recording session was uneventful. Unluckily, so was the record.
TOP OF THE TABLOIDS
This week’s top show biz news in the Inquirer tabloid Bandera (and why we are moved, if we are moved):
Utang na loob ni Lito Lapid kay Coco Martin ang paghataw sa mga survey; “Pero ’wag pakasiguro at baka malaglag pa sa Magic 12.” (Vigilance is a must these days.)
