Crafty exec filches party raffle prize for freeloading star

SAM MILBY hopes to have a date at the next Star Magic Ball.RICHARD REYES

A huge scandal is raging in cyberspace. Crafty Exec of Top Company wanted to infiltrate the “in” crowd— where Ravishing Beauty, Glamorous Stunner and their ilk reign. CE showers RB and GS with all sorts of freebies, from lavish dinners to foreign junkets.

At a splashy bash, TC held a raffle for guests.

Showbiz Insider won one of the prizes, a spiffy gadget. By the end of the party, however, the prize and CE had vanished.

Turned out, CE gave SI’s gizmo prize to RB.

Karma knocked on CE’s door with dispatch. CE’s comeuppance was truly devastating.

Try again

Major Studio mounted a huge event for staffers. In attendance was MS’ top brass.

Hunky Idol and Talented Starlet were among the performers. TS effortlessly wowed the audience and Big Boss praised the vivacious entertainer for a job well done.

When it was HI’s turn, BB’s mood changed. HI’s performance was marred by flats and sharps galore. In short, it was a disaster.

Disappointed, BB told HI (in front of the shocked audience) to sign up for additional workshops.

Deal breaker

Controversial Celebrity and Wealthy Benefactor were once thick as… well, thieves.

JANINE Gutierrez feels it’s better to be safe than sorry

CC benefited from WB’s largess. WB, on the other hand, got to cover up not a few shenanigans with CC’s help.

Alas, their unholy alliance was soon tested.

CC and WB had a falling out over garden-variety Sexy Nymphet. WB already had his dirty paws on SN but CC still made his move on the girl.

That was the deal breaker.

Hunky buffet

Once again, several hunks have fallen victim to unscrupulous netizens.

A gay website has come out with a list of local male celebrities who are said to be in the flesh trade. It’s a veritable menu of hunks!

In the lineup are products of a reality search—Gorgeous Heartthrob, Dashing Discovery and Macho Hottie—who purportedly charge P20,000 to P25,000.

Although it’s supposedly a hoax, some of the hunks were terribly undervalued. Troubled Performer was priced at P10,000.

Now, that was adding insult to injury.

Bloated

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Not a few people have noticed that Perky Starlet’s tummy is growing bigger.

No, she’s not pregnant.

PS just can’t stop guzzling beer—especially when she goes out with Cute Boyfriend, who has a drinking problem.

But PS’ Older Relative doesn’t exactly set a good example, either. OR is one mean drunk, too. Cut them and they’d bleed… alcohol.

Top of the Talk Shows

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

Nova Villa’s message to sister Tia Pusit, who is in the hospital for heart and kidney problems: “Bumangon ka na! Hinihintay ka na ng mga shows mo!” (Can’t underestimate positive projection.)

Janine Gutierrez on Hollywood celebs’ private photos being leaked by hackers: “Para sigurado, huwag kang magpa-picture nang ganun.” (Korek!)

Tom Rodriguez, asked where his relationship with Carla Abellana is at: “Nasa panunuyo pa lang at pagpapa-cute …. I don’t want to rush.” (Sigh. This guy should be cloned.)

Heart Evangelista’s message to Cesca Litton: “I wish you well and let’s [just] be happy because we’re getting married to the [men] of our dreams. Congratulations and sorry for the confusion.” (The winner takes it all.)

Sam Milby on going to the Star Magic Ball solo: “Sana next time, may date na ako.” (For sure that was your choice.)

Sam, asked if he had regrets that he and Anne Curtis didn’t end up together: “Bilang ’di ako perpektong tao, yes, I have regrets.” (We’re stuck on “yes.”)

Shaina Magdayao on allegedly being wooed by Sam and Piolo Pascual: “Huwag na natin silang idamay.” (OK.)

Batangas Gov. Vilma Santos, asked if son Luis is entering politics: “’Di namin siya ini-encourage o dini-discourage …. Right now, no commitment.” (No comment.)

TOM RODRIGUEZ says he’s still wooing Carla Abellana.

Governor Vi, asked if Luis’ girlfriend Angel Locsin would make a good first lady: “100 percent!” (First lady ng…?)

Luis on rumors that he and Angel are getting married in Lipa, Batangas province, next year: “Hindi …. Sa Balesin!” (Ay, nakigulo pa.)

Daniel Padilla, asked what he thought about Kathryn Bernardo’s look at the Star Magic Ball: “Very… majestic.” (Like Mayon Volcano?)

Kathryn’s reaction: “Wow, saan galing ’yun?” (Accept mo na lang.)

Enchong Dee on his girlfriend Samantha Lewis: “Everything’s perfect.” (May maintenance check?)
