When friends-turned-enemies’ fangs and claws come out

Clockwise: Kisses Delavin, Coco Martin, Sharon Cuneta and Angel Locsin

These two performers are known in the biz as more approachable than most, but their fangs and claws immediately come out when they start talking about each other.

Diva One (DO) and Diva Two (DT) used to belong to the same circle of friends, but their romantic “persuasions” quickly got in the way of their “fondness” for each other the minute DO learned that DT has been talking behind her back.

While DT talks about DO’s “toxic” and far-from-ideal relationship with her current beau, DO always points it out to mutual pals that DT is nowhere near her “level.” When a common friend asked DO if DT was also in a glitzy event she was performing in, DO quickly reminded her inquisitive friend, “Well, DT doesn’t really get invited in as high-profile an event as this!” Ouch naman, neng.

Meow!
