Gaining Back the Attention

While one side of the entertainment industry could be cruel, another side shows the opposite. Sometime ago, Homegrown Talent (HT) almost had her career cut short due to a major faux pas. Instead of the network reacting to the issue, her handlers opted to remain quiet and not issue any statement. Hence, no clarification was ever made, and HT continued with her career.

Nonetheless, the momentum that HT was building suddenly slowed down as she was transitioning from child roles to more mature ones. Her camp had to work overtime to make sure that her fans would follow her until she stabilizes her career again. However, HT’s camp noticed that Upcoming Personality (UP) seemed to be gaining the upper hand, as indicated by her successive projects.

To make sure HT would remain in the consciousness of the production team, her camp gave away small gifts to show their appreciation. However, this gesture was read otherwise, as some thought this could be HT’s way of trying to endear herself to the personnel. In short, the gesture was well-planned. The reality is that the production merely feels that UP is easier to deal with because of her attitude of being friendly. Allegedly, HT could be aloof at times, which was read as the outcome of her previous issue.

Rumors even have it that HT was already being told to move to another network after her major error. However, the other networks were not interested, as HT might not be able to get away from the effects of her alleged mistake. Lucky for HT, her network showed its heart by sticking it out with her. As HT is the sole breadwinner of her family, the network decided not to let her go. Hence, she still has several projects in the station. Such case is rare, as the network is known to release talents, especially the newbies, if management sees there is no potential at all or if the attitude does not fit the image of the station.
