CHAREE Pineda
Apart from a well-publicized skirmish, another confrontation occurred during a recent high-profile industry gathering.
Controversial Personality was sitting quietly in a corner. From out of nowhere, Scandalous Celebrity went up to CP, dishing out a disturbing question: “Tell me the truth. Are you still hooked on drugs?”
CP was too stunned to respond. Was SC that bold because she is the current pet of the Powers-That-Be in the studio, while CP has fallen out of grace?
Years ago, CP scared the living daylights out of SC when they butted heads.
CP did the confronting, while SC was uncharacteristically speechless.
Wrong number
In the same show biz event, Character Actress and Veteran Performer were chatting in the dining area.
A stranger approached their table and sat beside CA.
SAM MILBY
The intruder, however, kept calling CA by VP’s name.
As coup de grace, the uninvited guest brazenly asked for money from CA, who reluctantly shelled out cash.
Till the end of the evening, the beggar was still thanking VP for the generous “donation.”
Nose knows
Promising Performer is in a quandary. She has received several awards in the industry, but is gravely insecure about a certain body part.
PP is constantly criticized for a rather prominent nose. In close-ups, the nose tends to hog the limelight and distract viewers from her performance.
Distraught, PP once asked a shocked insider: “Will a nose job help me go further in my career?”
La Streisand would beg to disagree.
HEART Evangelista
Unhappy hunk
Hunky Actor has likewise scored a prestigious acting award in his young career.
But HA is unhappy and blames his management team—or, as he calls them, “the mismanagement team.”
HA is rebelling by accepting projects that are daring and out-of-the-box.
Moreover, HA has made it known that he’s willing to bare all in gay films. It’s because HA once gave up a prime project that won his Talented Replacement a major acting trophy.
Horror star
Poor, harassed production staffers are reluctant to work with Show biz Insider.
JOHN Prats
It’s because SI has a mean temper. Turned out, even veteran actors are scared of SI.
SI apparently didn’t spare Major Celeb from trauma. Well, SI could very well be the nation’s biggest Horror Star.
Top of Bandera
The top show biz news in the Inquirer tabloid Bandera (and why we are moved if we are moved):
Pokwang: Gusto ko na ring magka-dyowa! (Worry not, you will!)
Hindi gumaling sa mga gamot na binigay ng doktor; mga sugat sa anit ni Pokwang pinagaling ng albularyo (But we heard he used actual medicine.)
Pakiusap ni Alma Moreno sa misis ni Vandolph: ’Wag siyang iiwan!’ (Why would she do that without provocation?)
Kulang na lang daw ibuyangyang ang boobs at ‘flower,’ Solenn nagmukhang chipangga sa fashion show, tinawag na bomba. (This is also provocation.)
Sobrang higpit ng pagyakap sa kabaong ni “Lovey,” pero… Zsa Zsa naging kalmado sa libing ni Dolphy. (The healing begins.)
Kim Chiu hiyang hiya pa rin kay Ate Vi. (Girl, you gotta get over it sometime.)
Ayaw pa ring itigil ang panliligaw kay Sarah; Gerald: Hindi pa rin ako sinasagot ni baby girl! (A good time to review your style.)
Kaya nakiusap sa Star Magic na isama ang dyowa sa trip; Cristine Reyes gustong ma-solo si Rayver sa Canada. (Can’t get enough, huh?)
Sam Milby naghahanap ng bagong GF pero ayaw na sa artista (Smart. You never know when actresses stop acting.)
Annabelle Rama humingi ng tawad sa bangkay ni Pidol (Pidol is beyond minding, if you still can’t tell.)
CRISTINE Reyes
Mismong si Dolphy Jr. na ang nagbandera, Willie milyones na rin daw ang nabigay na tulong kay Dolphy. (At least the money found a good cause.)
Dahil sa pang-iinsulto niya sa show biz press, Cristine hinukay ang sariling “libingan” (At the rate she’s going, that grave could be 12 feet deep.)
Iwa Moto umuusok ang tumbong dahil sa tagumpay ni Jodi (Hmmm, so, ang score: Jodi 1, Iwa 0. )
Hindi man lang tinulungan ng ex-BF na direktor; Daiana Menezes: Muntik na po akong mamatay noon sa sunog! (That’s why he’s your ex. Keep him that way.)
Para gumaling agad, Lorna Tolentino 10 beses nagpaturok (Whatever it was, 10 times is a little over.)
Heart Evangelista inu-umaga sa pakikipag-date kay Chiz (He said the conversations are good—but long?)
John Prats takot na takot mag-asawa (Then don’t. We’re certainly not rushing you.)
Eric Quizon: Kung kailan nawala si Daddy, saka kami nakumpleto! (Someone works in mysterious ways, indeed.)
Charee Pineda sa pag-bi-bikini: Makapal lang talaga ang mukha ko! (Wahaha! Your words, not ours.)
Oks lang kay Snooky kung mabuntis nang maaga ang anak (Doesn’t getting married usually happen before that?)
Saan napupunta ang lahat ng kinikita ni Willie R? (We’re having a fun time guessing.)
