Son ‘not happy’ about Vicki’s engagement

Quark Henares

Today, we open with a quote that is too touchingly straightforward to resist. Quark Henares, asked about his mom Vicki Belo’s engagement to Hayden Kho: “I’m not happy about it. And in fact, I don’t think anyone outside the two [of them] are. But I love my mother and value her happiness above everything, so I will support her. I’ll still be keeping watch on Hayden though, and if he hurts her again, I think I will really have to kill him.”

P15,000 date

Gay Celebrity has made his pursuit of handsome guys a running gag among friends and fans.

Turned out, GC was actively chasing Mestizo Hunk. According to a mole, GC finally scored a date with MH.

How much did one night of pleasure cost? Said the mole: “At least P15,000.” Love hurts—GC’s pocket.

Nasty beauty loses fan

Giddy Fan admired Stunning Starlet from a distance. When they finally met at a shoot in the house of GF’s boss, love quickly turned to hatred.

SS wanted to borrow a towel from GF’s boss, who was more than eager to oblige. Wanting to impress SS, GF gave her a new, expensive towel from the boss’ collection. Unimpressed, SS snapped: “Are you sure no one else has used this before?”

SS also borrowed slippers. Excitedly, GF complied. SS again clucked: “Are you sure these are brand new?”

SS proceeded to pray, “to exorcise bad spirits that could attach themselves” to the flip-flops.

Another diva fit

Controversial Star made co-workers wait for hours on the set of a TV commercial. When the staff reached CS, she casually said, “Let’s just reschedule. I’m not feeling beautiful today.”

Judging from CS’s recent weight gain, it may take a while before they can reschedule.

Dazed and confused

According to a source, Handsome Actor, at his lowest, succumbed to the flesh trade. It seemed improbable because HA comes from a well-off family that is well-respected in the biz.

Then again, HA, in his youth, was often dazed and confused—allegedly addicted to drugs and in need of extra income to support his vice.

He used to hang out at a Manila hotel to meet up with prospective gay clients who were more than happy to pay for his addictions, er, affections, says a spy.

Unstoppable, unforgiven

Seems Showbiz Insider is still furious at Former Ward. SI frowned upon FW’s rather public displays of affection with Hunky Boyfriend.

SI demanded, “Why does FW travel alone with HB? Are they married? Are they honeymooners?” Apparently, SI has yet to forgive FW for past slights.

Top of the talk shows

For those who missed last weekend’s TV gabfests (And why we are moved, if we are moved):

Solenn Heussaff, asked if “Temptation Island” co-star Tom Rodriguez is courting her: “Close kami kasi artist siya, tapos artist ako … Guwapo siya pero gusto ko mas matanda, mga 30s.” (Pihikan.)

Claudine Barretto on rumors that she’s the cause of delay of her coming series, “Iglot”: “Siyempre masama ’yung loob ko, kasi parang ’di pa ako nagsa-start, may ganun na. ’Di ko alam kung bakit sensitive ako ngayon sa ganu’n. Affected talaga ako!”(So bakit kaya hindi maka-start?)

Claudine Barretto on dealing with rumors that she and husband Raymart Santiago have broken up: “May times na pinagtatawanan namin, katawa-tawa ’yung tsismis. Pero may mga times na iniiyak ko.”  (Hahaha, huhuhu.)

PGT2 champ Marcelito Pomoy on being swamped with gay rumors: “Lalaki po talaga ako.” (Boses-babae lang pag kumakanta.)

Roderick Paulate, asked if there’s anything more he wants to achieve: “Basta ipagpatuloy na lang kung ano ang magagawa ko for the industry. At the same time, the Lord has given me another job [as Quezon City councilor]. ’Yun ang gagawin ko, ang tumulong sa tao. Kung ano ’yung maibibigay ko at ano ’yung kaya ko, ’yun ang gagawin ko. Hindi ako mag-rereklamo.” (Good answer.)
