Is it Time to Say Goodbye?

Looks like the start of the year has become an axing season for this network. Apart from a weekly show that already went off air, one is on the chopping board anytime soon, there is another show AS in the line up that might bid adieu soon.

People will be shocked for sure as AS’s forthcoming fate is not at all being felt even within AS's production team. Yet major players and insiders have expressed same sentiments – that the show is seriously being considered to be removed from airing.

To be fair, AS has been enjoying good ratings. The sad fact according to insiders is that AS is rather difficult to mount and can be really financially draining. Simply put, advertising income can hardly meet the costs of production. Now network heads are meeting up for a replacement soon. Suggested stars are buddies who have recently bonded in a hit project.

The show has survived many controversies, yet it stood tall and AS’ stars to this day stand united with each other. To the credit of the show’s production team, controversies in the past within AS were immediately ironed out so as not to jeopardize the show’s content. But as they say it over and over again, in showbiz, you’re only as good as your last performance. Nothing is ever permanent!

Does He Really Support Film Piracy?

Being part of the movie industry, there are many expectations from stars. First on the list is image. Ideally, what the actors project comes close to what they really are. Second, they are expected to abide by the regulations the industry strongly advocates.One of these the actors are not expected to condone is film piracy - for very obvious reasons.

While training at the gym, DA called his assistant, who came up to meet him. The presence of the assistant called attention as DA might be feeling something and that he might need help. Then, DA was heard instructing his assistant to purchase copies of the latest movies. Since the gym was located at a favorite area of the anti-piracy raids, the other gym clients realized DA had just asked his assistant to purchase pirated movies.

Those who overheard the request of DA were amused that such an actor of his calibre actually patronize such DVDs. DA yet his siblings project a classy and sassy lifestyle. He also has money, given his movie and TV projects, and endorsements. However, DA is also known to be frugal. At any rate, purchasing pirated DVDs is such a turn off. Is patronizing such products, the only “fake” purchases DA makes?

Away from the Crowd

“Out of sight, out of mind” is somewhat an apt description of the careers of network talents. Being in between projects could be a double-edged sword. First, not being visible on TV could dampen the interest of the fans, and therefore the fans might shift interest. The other risk is that not being seen as often can lead a talent not to be as conscious of his/her physique. With very few talents really regaining their following after they emerge from a hiatus with a new project, interest should always be maintained to keep their popularity.

Perhaps without wanting to, fun-loving actor (FL) recently found himself in a series of controversies involving different women. In one incident, he was in the midst of the tension between a past and a present relationship. In  another, he got the ire of a seasoned actress. In both incidents, FL was the victor.

While these controversies became the favorite topic of the showbiz press, FL was seen holing up in a hotel south of the capital. This relatively new hotel within the metro is far from the center of showbiz happenings. FL was spotted checking in for the weekend. As to who was with FL during that weekend is as important as the reason why he was there in the first place. Was FL evading or waiting for someone? What do you think?

Revealing Thoughts of Talent Manager Towards the Actress

Image courtesy of www.goodreads.com

Sometime ago, talent manager (TM) shocked the production people of a talk show where she was a major guest. During the break, TM was in the dressing room freshening up when she was overheard speaking to someone over the phone.

TM was assumed to be talking to someone asking if one of her talents (OT) could play the villainess role opposite non-singer actress (NA). Although nothing that TM does could still shock people, her feisty reply caught the attention of people nearby. TM began calmly, and then burst into “What? You expect OT to play contravida to NA??? P****g i***g yun!” Then, in a more peeved tone, TM said, “OT has been with your network for some time, and you still cannot give her the stardom she deserves!”

Come to think of it, OT has indeed been with the network for a time ever since she left her original stable. OT has tried doing the range of roles, and even tried following the steps of a sibling by posing in a magazine. Still, she has been relegated to doing supporting roles, and usually she does play a good villain. Meanwhile, NA has been known to have turned down a role that practically made the career of another actress (AA) a household name. At that time, NA was supposed to star with a franchise actor (FA) of the network. NA turned down that role because she said she was prioritizing her studies. Because of that, AA and FA rose to fame, and AA now miles ahead in celebrity status than NA.

We can only speculate why TM labelled NA that way. Was it because NA seems to be having successive relationships? While maintaining her good girl image, the latest is that NA is now happily involved with a scion of a famous showbiz clan.

Perhaps, OT can learn a thing or two from respected American actor, Sidney Poitier, “A good deed here, a good deed there, a good thought here, a good comment there, all added up to my career in one way or another.”
