One of the lessons emphasized in life is to never burn bridges with people, especially with superiors or people who have given one a break in his/her career. In the local entertainment industry, seasoned celebrities who move from one network to another or from one manager to another usually keep quiet on their past associations. If they do say something, the statements are all positive and never one that could damage the reputation of the left-behind management. The reason for such behavior is simple, that is, the ones who left might find themselves coming back.
While moving to another management seems to be a trend these days, especially for actors who do not have projects, Retired Actor (RA) decided to remain where his heart is. Even if RA disappeared for a time and gave the impression he has retired, rumors are circulating that he wants to revive his career.
At the peak of his popularity, RA was estimated to be among the young millionaires of his generation, as his projects did well. Moreover, he was among the most frugal talents, who was not as generous as other celebrities who would spend to make other members of the industry happy. Then, a personal event made him choose to take a hiatus.
Throwing caution to the wind, RA started to enjoy his hard-earned money by traveling abroad and all over the country. RA also spent for the needs and wants of His Love (HL), which turned out to be expensive. Without a steady source of income and relying on his investments, his finances started to dwindle and go down to critical level. Hence, RA felt the time was right to send feelers to Former Bosses (FB).
FB accommodated RA to listen to him. RA explained his predicament and FB understood. However, a comeback was not going to be given to RA on a silver platter. FB reminded RA of his actions, which incurred losses on the part of the production. FB stressed that they cannot risk the possibility of RA just abandoning his projects. More importantly, FB instructed RA to clean his act first. Only if he helps himself could FB help him.
Unknown to RA, FB was very cautious because they found out he was still intoxicating himself, and worse, his venue choices were small and cheap bars in the city. If he decides to undergo rehab, FB would be there for him. After all, FB has given many chances to come-backing talents, and thus, extending help to FB would not really be extraordinary.
‘There's nothing as exciting as a comeback - seeing someone with dreams, watching them fail, and then getting a second chance.’ – Rachel Griffiths

May point naman ang FB bago mag offer sila ng project kakayanin ba talaga ni RA. Madaming gumugulo sa utak niya ngayon baka hindi niya matapos ang mga projects na binibigay sa kanya. Diba rich si HL bakit lahat iaasa kay RA. Pwede naman mag bigay siya ng konting pang gastos nila. Hindi ako naniniwala na ang lalaki ang lagi mag lalabas ng pera lalo na kung kaya mo din mag bayad paminsan minsan.

ReplyDeleteRA - J
ReplyDeleteHwag na uy!
ReplyDeleteNo other but J.
ReplyDeleteBut correct, before him having work again, he must clean up his act. And be over his vices.
J and M
ReplyDeletej, work work din pag may time!
ReplyDeleteX
ReplyDeleteI dont know if publicist or hater ka ni x pero bakit laging mag nasagot ng x sa lahat BI? kaloka.
DeleteNaku, he is not reliable na. Let him retire for good.
ReplyDeleteE was not a good partner, she should habe encouraged him to go into rehab!
DeleteWag naman, bigyan ulit ng chance sayang sya magaling pa naman, Wag lang syang babalik sa bisyo or else its goodbye career for life na.
Deletekasalanan pa talaga ni E @ 2:55?? kahit anong encourage mo sa isang alcoholic kung ayaw nya wala kang magagawa.
Delete6:45, sabi na nga na may bisyo pa rin e. Doon lang nagtatago sa small bars para hindi ma halata. Lol.
DeleteHe likes his alcohol too much yata. That’s an addiction and either you abstain or you don’t. There is no middle ground. I know this because my family members have the exact same problem.
ReplyDeleteHmmm....I think he needs to pass a psych evaluation first. That’s requirement for a contract.
ReplyDeleteSana RA umayos ka na, magaling ka eh.
ReplyDeleteHuwag na sya bumalik
ReplyDeleteHe needs to go into rehab first..he's hitting rock bottom!
ReplyDeleteThe pot of gold at the end of rainbow is slowly vanishing..
ReplyDeleteHuwag ka na mag comeback. Mayabang ka nun kala mo kung sino
ReplyDeleteThey always come back don’t they.
ReplyDeleteAyan na nga ba sinasabi nung maka-retire tinalikuran nya ung industryang nagpakain sa kanya. He may be a very good actor, but he needs to start from the bottom again for him to realize the importance of his livehood.
ReplyDeletewell, ginusto nya yan..sa isang iglap nawala ang lahat na pinapaguran nya.. i think his exes are thanking God and all the saints in heaven for sparing them from a possible lifetime heartache.. obviously he is the toxic one not his exes and his partner has not inspired him to be the kind of man she wants him to be. so starting all over again si RA.
ReplyDeleteO ngayon? asan na iyong nagsasabi na hindi mauubos ang pera niya kahit hindi na siya magtrabaho?? na ang yaman niya at mag enjoy nalang siya kasi na burn out na siya.. mas ma burn out ka if wala kang perang pambayad sa mga utang, sa mga bisyo at mga kapritso mo. see? love flies out of the window (together with the plates and spoons) if your stomach is empty.
ReplyDeleteA lot of people predicted that this will happen when he announce his "staying out of the limelight" retirement. Tama ang prediksyon ng lahat!
ReplyDeleteAyan, it's tough when reality hits you. Medyo sawi na sa lovelife, malapit na pang maubos ang ipon. Time to straighten up, J.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to go to rehab first. Nang umayos pagiisip.
ReplyDeleteTama si FB malaking liability si RA. Hindi pa sya ready hanggang hindi sya sober.
ReplyDeleteKahit sinong babae ang ksama nya sa buhay hindi sya tumitino, sayang kase magaling syang actor and mabait sa fans yan e, na-meet na nmin sya a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteWe saw this coming...
ReplyDeleteUbos na his savings all these years? Wow. Hinde niya na manage ng maayos
ReplyDeletesinayang mo boy eh... sakit nemen ng ginawa mo iniwan mo sa ere si bossing mo... wala problema mainlab ka diba puedeng balanse lang lahat....pano na ngayon?? wala na chance
ReplyDeletePwede 1-2 days guesting. Pero kung bida sa teleserye, mapapahamak show kapag ayaw na namang sumipot.
ReplyDeletetama dapat ma rehab sya. good decision sa part ni boss na ayusin muna sarili nya. kasi kung walang mgbabago gagawin pa rin nya mga ginawa nya
ReplyDeleteSayang talent ni RA magaling talaga kaso ayusin niya muna. Lahat naman nagkakamali eh, wala naman perferct. lol.
ReplyDeleteThe industry badly needs you. Clean up your act and comeback.
ReplyDeleteOA naman yong badly. huminto ba na industriya nong nawala sya baks? LOL
DeleteFix yourself RA. You’re one of the truly talented ones in the industry. Hoping for your comeback.
ReplyDeleteGrabe yung years nyang pinagtrabahuhan at pinagpaguran naubos lang sa isang saglit.
ReplyDeleteaw sayang naman, kala ko kaya against all odds sya kay E kasi marunong humawak ng pera.
