Actress ‘not too happy’ with how comeback vehicle is shaping up

Excitement has turned into anxiety and concern for Serious Veteran (SV), who is not pleased with the outcome of the film she shot recently and is demanding for a reedit.

After all, this is SV’s latest collaboration with longtime Onscreen Partner (OP). SV has not been visible since the pandemic lockdowns, so this would have been the perfect vehicle for her reentry into show biz, as well as a way for her to get introduced to younger audiences.

People close to SV are blaming the producers’ decision to hire a young and relatively inexperienced director to do the job. Could this be because SV and OP demanded talent fees that were so high that the producer could no longer afford the services of a more seasoned or better-experienced production group? Here’s an even more pertinent question: Will they be able to salvage the movie?

TOP OF THE TABLOIDS

This week’s top show biz news from the tabloids (and why we are moved, if we are moved):

• Bea Alonzo nagmukha raw alalay sa birthday ni Kyline Alcantara: ‘Naawa kasi ako kaya kinuha ko na ‘yung cake’ (Let Bea eat cake, quick!)

• Marco Gumabao ayaw nang magpakita ng puwet, never magpo-frontal nudity dahil kay Cristine Reyes: ‘Ay, no! May magagalit na! Hindi pwede!’ (So, dati pala pwede?)

• Kiko Matos ‘nagdiwang’ sa natsuging socmed accounts ni Rendon Labador: Panalo ang Pilipinas ngayon! Buti nga sa ’yo! (Now that’s what we call “motivational!)

• Rendon Labador naka-lock na ang X account, Instagram page nanganganib na rin (When it rains, it pours.)

• Hirit ni Vice Ganda matapos tawaging bastos at abusado ni Juan Ponce Enrile: ‘Sa mga lolong hindi ako masyadong like, I still love you po’ (How to fight hate with love.)

• Angelica Panganiban may hugot sa mataba at malaking eggplant ng Australia: ‘Kaya ang gusto ko talagang makatuluyan, Australian!’ (Funny ng very slight itong si Angge, ‘no?)

Aiko Melendez —CONTRIBUTED photo

• Aiko Melendez nag-init ang ulo sa aktor na ma-attitude na may initial na JP (Is it based on personal experience or just a mother’s instinct kicking in?)

• Francine Diaz nape-pressure sa paglalagay ng label sa ‘relasyon’ nila ni Seth: ‘Huwag po nating madaliin, hayaan po nating ang tadhana ang gumawa’ (Tadhana still not in the mood to put a label on FranSeth’s ‘closeness.’)

• Jillian Ward ayaw pang magpaligaw at magkadyowa; pangarap maka-collab sa susunod na project si Vice Ganda (Now that Vice’s show is on GTV, is it safe to say abot-kamay na ang kanyang pangarap?)

• Ben&Ben sa mga fans: ‘Salamat sa pagkapit kahit na may mga pagsubok … ang dami naming natututunan sa inyo’ (It’s always a two-way thing.)

• Julia Montes nagse-share na ng secrets kay Alden Richards: ‘Alam ko na po kung bakit n’yo siya iniidolo, talaga namang deserving’ (So, bakit nga?)
