Prima donna up to her old tricks again-with hefty ex-heartthrob in tow

Seasoned Journo (SJ) couldn’t believe Delusional Angel (DA) still had it in her to act like a bratty schoolgirl. After all, DA is no longer the “it” girl she used to be in her heyday.

SJ and his colleagues were looking forward to the scheduled chitchat with DA, her hefty costar Monumental Actor (MA) and the production person with them, because it’s been a while since the two worked together on a project.

But the happy exchange soon took a turn for the twisted when DA and MA noticed that the bulk of the questions were being addressed by the production person beside them. Suddenly, SJ and company heard a curt “thank you” from DA, followed by the quickest French leave in this side of Tinseltown.

Apparently, DA wasn’t very pleased that they weren’t getting the lion’s share of attention from the writers around. SJ could only mutter, “But we were just warming up…!”

Lesson learned: Next time SJ gets his close encounter with DA and MA, he should make sure he’s all-eyes and all-ears when the self-entitled brats are around. Unless, he wants to get the kind of treatment that is as cold as the box-office performance of the duo’s odd venture.
