Major Jeopardy

When rumours start to spread about possible changes in programming, talents who currently have shows start to ponder if they would be retained or discarded. After all, no one is indispensable when it comes to the entertainment industry and the management decision. A top talent today might find himself/herself at the bottom of the ladder the next day.

After the realigning of talents to be accommodated in a show, Choosy Performer (CP) had lesser exposure than prior to the change. CP is a top performer and many of his fans wondered why he was being seen less. He no longer has solos and always performs in groups. Such measure was done to ensure that many of the network’s talents receive ample exposure. However, CP has also set certain conditions to the production team to follow.

Allegedly, CP does not want to perform with talent show winners. Whenever a number involving a contest winner is involved, he refuses to participate and tells the production-in-charge to just give his slot to established singers who were once talent show contestants. He reasons out that the vocal range of newbies cannot match his vocal range. He prefers to perform with seasoned performers, especially, now that the network has many in its roster. Thus, the planning team has to include his requests.

As the production could no longer stand the attitude of CP, his behaviour was reported to higher management. Unlucky for him, he is no sacred cow. CP was told bluntly that if he continues not to follow the production team, he will no longer be given a slot in the show. He was reminded that he is not a talent of the network, but is just on call. Besides, the show can go on without him.

The ultimatum made CP think. He could move to another station, but then he realized that the other big station has no more space for a performer like him. Thus, moving out is not an option. CP could not face his big fear of having no exposure. He knows the veracity of the cliché, ‘out sight, out of mind’, in the industry. If he is not visible, then he will lose popularity. Subsequently, he might lose gigs.

Finally, CP came to his senses. He apologized to the production head and said that he will change his attitude and be cooperative. He gave an excuse that he was just undergoing something, which made him difficult.

    3. Yeah this is J. Medyo nagtataka din ako kung bakit bihira siya sa show tapos di sha kasama sa out of towns. At balita ko nga may attitude din talaga to eh. I mean de kalibre naman sha to make demands but to be lagung choosy is not okay. Yung mas vet nga sa kanya ay ok to perform with unknown people

  8. If he’s a great performer as he thinks he is, audition sya sa hollywood that will be your bitter pill.

    I mean i find him as a great singer. But he does not have a hit single even. Or wala akong maalalang kanta nya. So wag masyadong mataas ang tingin. Dont capitalize on the good words of fellow singers na magaling sya. Make a hit music muna. Otherwise he’s just another cover artist. #justsaying
