Impish humor gets seasoned performer in trouble

Seasoned Performer (SP) is known as much for his versatility as for his naughty streak. True, while he may be known for his talent, he’s also known as an incorrigible prankster when he’s with his colleagues.

But one thing SP says he isn’t is a tattle-tale—a misconception that has gotten SP in trouble from time to time—like the time when SP worked with Sensitive Star (SS) for a series of projects. During a working trip with SS and another Actor-Performer (AP), SS suddenly began picking a fight with her hubby, who was with the entourage. But when word got around about the couple’s tampuhan in a very public place, SS quickly blamed SP for the “leak.”

It wasn’t the first time that SP’s vaunted impish humor got him in trouble, though. Of course, SP denied the accusation. He pointed out, “I may look naughty, but I’m no chismoso!” Lesson learned for SS: Don’t wash dirty linen in public.
