The Pushy Girlfriend vs the Daring Wife

Fashion PULIS' 1st Article in Manila Bulletin, April 29, 2011

At the height of her popularity, fashion model/host (FM) dated quite a few good-looking men. One of them was the son (S) of an actor politician from the south. The catch, S was married with kids. These facts were hidden from the public when he first entered showbiz. Just like his father, S was an incurable womanizer. He even got linked to a multi-awarded actress.

One time, the wife (W) of S got worried because he was not answering her calls nor was he replying to text messages. Still, W burned the lines calling. Finally, a woman answered the phone and in an irritated manner said, “Will you stop calling! We’re having s-x!” Shocked, the very angry W drove to S’s condo. There she saw FM, grabbed her hair and dragged her out of the room towards the fire exit. The scandal was quite big and even reached the barangay. FM filed charges for physical injuries. But W was not to be outdone as she did a "tell all" to the police. Hence the charges filed by FM did not prosper. Still, that was not the end of it all. W called S’s father and reported everything. Poor S, he got a beating that he deserved.

Today, FM is still controversial in her love interests but she is not as visible on TV. S has focused his sights on a political career and has left showbiz for the meantime. As for his marriage, it’s over.

Can you guess who FM and S are? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Former beauty queen/starlet (BS) of many years ago has reinvented herself as celebrity make-up artist. Since competition is also tough in this field, BS tries to be more entrepreneural to gain more clients. Apart from her own circle of clients, she flirts with just anyone: stars, politicians and talent managers alike for added connections in order to corner lucrative deals.

Talks have it that BS had long been separated from her husband with whom she has three kids. She was previously rumored to have an affair with an ex-mayor/actor, which they both denied. BS claimed it was just part of the work as photographer for his political campaign.

The latest buzz is that BS is now the latest girl of a big showbiz honcho widely known for being a womanizer. They are regularly seen in public, and were recently sighted shopping together in an A-list malls with her kids.

Can you identify who BS is? How about the top honcho? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Poll: What Can You Say About the Tweets of Miriam Quiambao?



Absolutely Not Man Enough

This big guy BG whose controversial wife CW is in forced hibernation for quite a time, is now getting remiss in his husbandry duties. When months ago, BG would visit CW, day in and day out, now he is slowly delegating his obligatory visits to his children and granchildren.

It's good that it's summer vacation now where CW can see her loved ones sans the BG more often...at least for the next 2 months.

Oh well, BG seems to be enjoying his days freer and unburdened. Yes, but certainly not for long. Everyone knows he has to untangle himself and his family from all their sins, past and present. Seems like poetic justice is fast catching up on this controversial family - don't you think so?

Can you guess the masks behind BG and CW? Or the equally controversial children? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

A More Popular Choice

Care to rewind about a top gun's staff member (SM) who was linked to several celebrities? The rumor mill was then abuzz with his penchant for drinking in the company of women celebs that probably made wine more exciting and addicting to him.

Recent events prove that the rumor is valid after all. SM and this once popular singer (PS) are playing sweet music together. And what do you know, such sweetness translates to some sweet government contracts, too. PS has probably grown tired of being in a "cougar-like" relationships she had in the past . Certainly nobody can live with just pretty faces and zero pockets.

Hmmm...seems like PS has grown not just financially wiser, but a lot smarter, too - just like mom.

Can you guess who SM and PS are? How long will his liason with PS last? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Smart-alecky Newcomer

 Image courtesy of www.runronpaul.com
                                   
After taping for his guest appearance in a drama series, this certain winner (W) joined a female cast member (FC) and her actor boyfriend (BF) for dinner and drinks at a restaurant. What seemed to be a normal getting to know you dinner did not turn out nice.

As they were drinking, W started bragging about the business and wealth of his family and of course, his winning the contest. FC and BF found him annoying and loud for a newcomer. BF tried to understand and stretched his patience further, thinking that W was drinking a bit too much.

Somewhere in the conversation, FC kidded her BF that W was quite tall unlike him. The height joke, of course, is always something fun for the couple. However, W, under the influence of alcohol, retorted by saying that he would make himself appear shorter on camera so that he and BF will have a matched height once they have a scene together. This remark rubbed BF the wrong way. Infuriated, BF replied that the next time they will have a project together, he vowed that he will "eat him alive" in their scenes, at the risk of annoying his director for violating a rule in acting which is to act to the level of your co-actor in a scene. BF even vowed that in their next scene together, he will make sure that W will look like a fool.

Sensing bigger trouble might arise, FC stopped them and concluded the night. W and BF did not talk to each other anymore - they paid the bill and left.

Although both are seen together, FC and BF have yet to confirm they are a couple. The network seems to want to have no publicity hitches in case they get linked to other talents. As for W, there are rumors that he was seen in a gay club prior to entering the door leading to the house of showbiz. What was he doing in that place then? Was he just there by accident?

Can you guess who W, FC, and BF are? They all work in the same network and were discovered in different ways. Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

The Other Side of the Controversy

Image courtesy of www.ohr.edu

The recent controversy regarding the alleged resignation of the head of the production (P) and his conflict with one of the main hosts (H) has deeper roots than what the press releases say. A source informed FP that P was not on vacation but was asked to leave by one of the top executives of the station. The top executive, who happens to be related to P as well, could no longer stand the unbecoming habits of P (being a womanizer and spending most of her money). Hence, P is also banned from entering the premises of the station, according to the source. A new director has also been tapped to take over P's task.

Sometime ago, P was in conflict with the big time host, who left the station. P promised the network he will come up with a better show but it turned out to be a dud. The network was not happy with the substantial loss incurred by P's project and it had to be cancelled.

As for H, well, it's a matter of waiting and seeing. His notoriety and the popularity of the show could not topple the rival. The rumor mill is abuzz that another show with other talents will be taking over the noontime slot, while the variety show will be moving back to its earlier original time.

Can you identify the characters involved in this story? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Assets and Cash - the Family Feud

Image courtesy of www.webspace.webring.com

The recent sisters' act (S1 and S2) has shown to the world just how powerless anyone can be over the love/lust for money. It certainly knows no bounds anymore even among close blood relations. Too bad for some, materialism has consumed and taken over the real spirit of family.

In all fairness to S1, she had been a very generous family breadwinner during her career highs in showbiz. There was nothing she wouldn't do for her family - everyone who knows her will attest to it. But as it is said, not every good deed breeds positivity. For it has successfully brought out the worst in S2. Being the bigger star that she is now, instead of returning the love and favors back to S1, she chose to do the opposite, and much more. She peppered S1 with the most obscene and barbaric words unfit for human consumption - and all because of feud over money.

Heard from the grapevine that S1 consulted her father first before she filed a suit against her half-sister S2. It pained S1 to do the unthinkable to S2 whom she loved. But she can only endure so much, those unprintables publicly hurled against her by acid-tonqued S2 were the last straw. Lessons have to be learned.

On the other hand, S2's management (which is also S1's management) seems helpless controlling the damage the controversy has done to their wards. S2's deafening silence on the issue is obviously an order from her manager.

Can fame be so toxic? Does S2 ever realize that no karmic debts ever go unpaid?

Letter from a Reader: Shocking Behavior of Filipino Caretakers


Video courtesy of BBC News

Dear Fashion PULIS,

How are you? I am from UK and I work as a care assistant. Just last night my husband and I were watching a program in BBC, a documentary about an elderly being abused in a nursing home, and we were so mortified to know that the caretakers involved are filipinos. I know that we shouldn't be ashamed of our own fellowmen, but what this certain Jonathan Aquino did was so humiliating especially to the Filipinos around the world. I hope u can feature this in your blog as it will serve as eyeopener for people working abroad, to remind us that we are not only carrying our reputation but our country's as well. Thank you.

Yours truly,
Ellenaj

Actions Speak Louder than Words

Image courtesy of www.searchquotes.com

When their relationship ended, the singer (S) and the manager (M) kept quiet after a confirmation via a statement from M. M has since moved on and has opted to handle the career of other talents. When asked why they broke up, M merely responded by not revealing any details and saying that they still respect each other. Meanwhile, S has been linked to a winner (W) in a talent contest, where S served as W’s mentor. Incidentally, during the finals night of the talent contest, people noticed how M reacted when W was announced as the winner. M did not bother to clap at all.

During and even after the show, S and W developed a certain closeness, which prompted the spread of the story that W is the reason why S and M parted ways. Both are denying that something more exists between them despite the exchanging of “I love you’s” over Twitter. S has also given expensive gifts to W and the followers got to know about these acts because W openly thanked S via tweets and a senior comedian even teased S about it on national TV.

An interesting observation is that the denial can be fuelled, perhaps, by the fact that W is still a minor and S might be charged with violating a law in case they both come out with a relationship. Moreover, S has produced an album for W and the sales might be jeopardized in case a scandal breaks out.

Sadly, some people have noticed that W has developed a certain arrogance towards fans. Even her family members were not spared from being swellheaded. A close relation of W had allegedly threatened a certain fan who left W’s fan club because of how W and the family were treating her followers. The fan is a mere simple laundry and cleaning woman who became the victim of lies spread by the relation of W. Alas, some netizens have taken it to be their cause to bash W and S by tweeting harassing tweets over revealing the truth, church, guilt, among others. What’s worse with the tweets is that other celebrities are tagged directly with the messages.

The recent development is that both S and W have terminated their twitter accounts after someone tweeted that they were living together. S has also advised W to refrain from going online so she will not have to read anything negative about them.

Do you know who S, M, and W are? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want me to post them. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.

Assuming Too Much

Last month, the news that Hollywood celebrities will be appearing at this mall and its branches generated much excitement among netizens and fans of one of the actors. Blog sites, especially of those residing in the southern part of the country, anticipated and expressed their excitement over the appearance of the actor who plays a vampire. A full-page article regarding the mall’s achievements was published in a broadsheet and the article mentioned the appearances in the series of the mall’s events.

However, an FB site of the mall where the alleged appearance should take place already issued a clarification regarding the said actor’s appearance. The message cited changes in the schedule of the Philippine tour of the cast.

A reliable source confirmed that the stars were not contracted to make any appearance. According to the source, the US agents even sent a memo to the mall to pull out all banners promoting the arrival of the stars. To allay the fear of negative publicity that can damage the reputation of the mall, the management adhered to the demands of the US agents.

Which chain of malls made the mistake of announcing the arrival and appearance of the Hollywood celebrities without even finalizing the deal? In the first place, did the cast of the said series really have a schedule in the country? The preemptive failed announcement is so unlike the classy and professional image the malls project.

Inglorious and Detestable Behavior

Image courtesy of www.freakingnews.com

Nowadays, posing in a men’s magazine seems to be the in-thing for the 20-something female celebrities. Sometime last year, this young actress (YA) showed off her tattoos in her photos. The tattoos, according to her, are words to remind her of the significant people in her life. YA has evolved from being the alleged daughter of a showbiz royalty to a serious actress. However, rumors about her hygiene and relationships are persistent.


Another female celebrity who posed for the same men’s magazine is an occasionally controversial model (CM). Sometime ago, CM created a stir with her criticism of the meeting of an international celebrity with the head of the land. Other than having a name in the modelling industry, the claim to fame of CM is her being linked to an actor host (AH) and scion of a political clan (SP). Both AH and SP are controversial in their own right.

Recently, a singer host (SH) got warm reception when she posed in a men’s magazine with her new look. Her photos did not escape comments from all sorts of readers. Some loved the concept and admired her having no qualms posing with her reptile pet. Others, however, noted that SH inherited the big thighs the women in her family are known for. Another group could not understand why SH had to do that spread and said that such an act was contrary to her image. Yet, another group commented that SH was showing her rebellious side.

Now, enter the young heiress (YH) of an actress beauty queen (BQ). In the photo shoot of YH for the same men’s magazine, BQ suddenly appeared on the set and went ballistic. She pushed aside the things in the dressing room and screamed at the magazine staff. BQ said, “You are making my daughter become a wh--e!” Then, she pointed at the staff and further said, “You are a wh--e maker! Lahat ng covers niyo po---k!” BQ did not stop at that. She further said, “YA is a slu-! CM is a wh--e! SH is a mega-wh--e!”

YH had to say something to stop her mother. All she could say was that BQ was worse than a more controversial mother (M). While BQ seems to portray YH as a saint compared to YA, CM, and SH, does she know about the rumor of YH having hooked up with AH?

Since BQ and YH are also taping for a TVC, YH had to request for a separate dressing room.

Keen on Her Groove








Even if she wore funny glasses, this beauty queen (BQ) did not escape the attention of onlookers at the after party of a recent concert. Her dancing with one of the members of the dance crew of the foreign group showed provocative movements and attracted attention. Was her all-out dancing a sign that she has moved on since her recent break-up? Did BQ dance with much passion to call attention to herself? After all, her dancing partner happened to be a member of a foreign act and it is common knowledge that BQ needs some boost to revitalize her career both here and abroad.

Facebook Infidelity: Cheating Wife Goes Online

Image courtesy of www.mizozo.com

One of the hottest stories in the wedding industry is how a top-notch wedding vendor (WV) caught the infidelity of his wife via Facebook. When his wife recently left for an overseas trip, WV accidentally discovered several messages coming from a former Balikbayan client (BC) in the inbox of his wife’s account. WV got the shock of his life as he discovered the messages spoke of love and other vulgar subjects. In short, the wife and the BC were having an affair.

WV felt betrayed as he considered BC a friend. WV even worked for the successful staging of BC’s wedding in Manila. When WV’s wife stayed in the US for a few months more than two years ago, WV told BC to watch over her. Unfortunately, BC took it to heart and something happened between him and the wife of WV as early as then.

After his discovery of the vulgar messages, WV immediately called and confronted his wife about the affair who was in the US for a "convention" at that time. Right at that moment, WV ended his marriage. He was shocked when his wife told him for her, their marriage has long been over!

Later, WV was in contact with some common friends he had with BC and he got a most unexpected response when he relayed his problem. One of his friends said, “Pare, that story was so two years ago.”

On the other hand, BC’s marriage ended because the woman he married found him too lazy. WV is still working and his services are still very much in demand in the industry.

Publicly Bizarre

Image courtesy of www.graphicleftovers.com

Most times, we hear of the phrase, "what you see is what you get." Loosely translated, it means that what is seen physically is a telling of the character behind that persona.

Many issues have been hurled against this model/tv personality (MP): public scandal, personal hygiene, attitude, among others - -- name it, she most probably got into it.

MP is a head-turner whenever she's doing events and hosting on tv. But definitely not when she is off-camera. Some people recount their encounters with her many times -- and often, stories don't just paint a negative picture of her, but also put her in shameful scandals that are just too big to ignore.

Scene 1: At a mall, she was seen with a gay companion (or P.A.). Looking at her, one could hardly believe it was MP: old slip-ons on dirty feet, soiled shirts and shorts, disheveled hair, and worst of all - her face that looked unwashed! That sight of her was such that she looked a lot worse than her P.A. .

Just how MP can afford to look that way in public is something only she can understand. And her actions were no different either - she was talking so loud as if her companion was hearing-impaired.

Scene 2: Very recently, at a posh bar south of metro, MP had a chance encounter with an ex-lesbian lover (EL). It was obvious that they had a bad break up because they fought that very night. It led to serious physical attack when EL tried to strangle MP. Such a scary spectacle before the very shocked public, as MP did not budge in and fought back with all her might while exchanging invectives with EL.

Who is MP? Is she guilty of all allegations? What do the people under the organization she heads have to say about this?

Self-destructing 101 - Stubbornness and Conceit

Image courtesy of www.conservativedailynews.com

In showbiz, the name of the game is survival. If you want to survive in this jungle, there are two things - reinvention and right attitude.

An almost iconic singer/actress (SA) doesn't seem to realize this. Stubbornness has definitely brought her to the sunset of her career - 'though to this day, she's still in big denial.

Talks have it that her over-publicized but also over-delayed talk show has now suddenly slipped from a daily to a weekly show.

Two long-planned movies, each co-starring her with two of showbiz's most handsome faces (A1 and A2), have been turned down by both actors. It didn't help that A1 was SA's once beloved ex. Heard from the grapevine - that both drama actors have same reasons for their refusal: that doing a movie with SA is tantamount to committing a big career suicide.

Adding to her woes is that endorsements are now hardly coming by. Gone are the days when she used to lord it over everyone in advertising products, gaining her the title Queen of Commercials for many, many years. But now, even if one comes along, endorsement deals are not as sweet as they used to be. She is, to put it bluntly at the lowest point of her career.

It is pretty obvious that her new management team and network seem to be of no help to resurrect her once powerful status.

But showbiz insiders say that even the best talent management can only do so much. If talent becomes a monster who has a mind of her own, no magic will work.

SA's latest blunder on social networking ethics was her one big mistake. She was just unstoppable, and wouldn't take heed. The public was so pissed with her behavior. For months, she put herself up for ridicule from a lot of people - fans, friends and foes alike.

What seems to be SA's problem? Is it psychological? Or is it the size of her ego growing bigger than her weight can handle?
