Controversial celeb showers new love with expensive gifts

Inquiring minds are wondering why Controversial Celeb is constantly in dire need of moolah these days.

Is it because CC’s sweetheart, Lovely Visitor, can only be described as “high maintenance”?

For starters, CC had to acquire a posh condo unit for LV, who is accustomed to living the high life.

CC, the great romantic, regularly showers LV with all sorts of expensive gifts, too. CC also treated LV to a deluxe holiday in a top tourist destination recently.

As coup de grace, CC likewise gave LV a well-paying job. Best for LV to remain busy, to keep distracting interlopers at bay.

Generous benefactor

Not a few local Lotharios have found new playmates in several Itinerant Beauties.

Alas, keeping up with the IBs is not for the faint-hearted or cash-strapped. The IBs have pretty expensive tastes and need repeated reassurance in the form of designer duds and other trinkets.

Of course, Wealthy Luminary made certain that the IBs would find generous benefactors in this part of the third world. (See CC above.)

After all, WL knows these dubious characters only too well.

Ahem.

Double speak

After only a few years in government, Neophyte Player has mastered the game of politics rather well.
NP has become a wiz in doublespeak.

In private, NP would unleash all sorts of scathing criticisms against a certain project and its proponents. In public, however, NP would pretend to be supportive, lauding the same venture and its advocates.

It was a quick 180-degree turn. After disparaging Vociferous Veteran, NP was heaping praises minutes later.

Honesty is such a lonely world … in show biz and politics.

Undressed to thrill

Perky Starlet seems to be flaunting her body much too frequently these days.

According to the grapevine, PS got a tad insecure because Gorgeous Partner had praised Youthful Colleague’s bodacious, beach-ready bod.

That’s why PS is often seen sashaying in different seaside resorts in various states of undress.

PS, who is fit and trim, has every right to flaunt nature’s gifts. Unfortunately, PS’ visage isn’t as ravishing as YC’s … or GP’s.

Ouch!

Relentless campaign

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Not a few insiders have noticed that supporters have been relentless in playing matchmaker to Handsome Hunk and Stunning Coworker.

SC is often mentioned in articles about HH, even though the clueless lass is not in any way involved in supposed paramour’s latest project.

Why the rabid campaign?

Well, HH needs a major reinvention, pronto, and only SC can help rehabilitate the poor guy’s tarnished image.
SC was shocked to read in the papers that HH had been actively wooing her. Even more perplexing, that they are now officially a couple.

SS was the last to know.
