Going Back On Her Word

The gorgeous model and her manager had agreed for her to be an endorser of a personal use product (P1). The finalization of the contract took some time as one of the business partners of P1 was in Europe. Three weeks later, P1 got back to the model for the signing.  The P1 owners were shocked when the model said, “No!” In addition, the model commented that the offer was low and that she does not know the brand. At the time of the offer, the model only had one endorsement. The people of P1 were very disappointed in the model as she already said “Yes,” but her change of mind showed she has no word of honor.

Manila Hails Lucy Hale

This February, Manila welcomes Lucy Hale with Bench formally introducing her as the brand’s newest American celebrity endorser through a press conference. The actress is known for her roles as Becca Sommers inBionic Woman, Rose Baker in Privileged, Sherrie in the horror film Scream 4, and her latest as Aria Montgomery on the hit ABC family series Pretty Little Liars. Lucy Hale has already filled her CV with a string of acting roles but other than that, the actress can also sing, as seen on the search show American Juniors.

Currently busy with her role in Pretty Little Liars, she takes time out of her schedule abroad to visit Manila for a press conference as one of Bench’s newest endorsers. Though she is arriving on the 9th of February, the press conference will be held on February 11 at the SMX Convention Center located at the Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City. Invited journalists, magazine editors, bloggers and other guests will also be witnessing a fashion show brought to them by the retail brand.

The brand surely knows how to recognize young talents like Lucy Hale. To date, Bench has a prestigious list of young celebrity endorsers both on the local and international front. Only 23 years old, Lucy Hale fits right in with the brand’s personality. Bench didn’t just choose a new pretty face. It’s that beauty that she has on the inside and that brimming talent are what compliment what she is on the outside, making her a total package.

Must You Do That?

This young actor was noticed because of his portrayal of various roles in the drama shows of his network. Although he is quite new in show business, he already earned an award for his acting. He looks good and his eyes show a boyish appeal that attracts fans. This actor has excellently portrayed several gay roles as well.

Little do the fans know that he draws from reality the emotions he puts in his roles. The young actor has a boyfriend. The tragedy to this story is that the young actor always threatens to slash his wrists every time his boyfriend wants to end their relationship.

Unhealthy Rivalry

Image courtesy of www.queeky.com

                         
The relationship of media personality 1 (MP1) and media personality 2 (MP2) is over. Initially, the management wanted MP1 and MP2 to fix their feud but MP1 refused. To make MP2’s life a bit miserable, MP1 issued an ultimatum: "I will leave if MP2 stays" or something close to that.

Their misunderstandings were perhaps caused by the pressures of fame, personality differences, or the nature of the show. Sometimes, the guestings do not turn out to the liking of MP1. At one point, MP1 threw a fit off air but in front of the guests. MP1 rattled she could not stand MP2 anymore and threatened to quit. However, the bosses heard a different story from MP1. MP1 claimed MP2 embarrassed her. Yet, the people who saw what happened know the truth.

MP2 cannot really make a big fuss. Although MP2 has a name, MP1 is more popular these days. The sudden attention given to MP1 has led to an increase in the ratings of their show, which MP2 acknowledges.Thus, to let the show not suffer further, MP2 gave in. The redeeming factor is that MP2 might host another show within the next few months.

               
Have recent events injected a certain level of power in the mind of MP1? Does MP1 see other people now as rivals instead of colleagues? MP2 thought they were friends but MP1 seems to have forgotten that they were went through the best and the worst of times together.

David Archuleta for Bench

Please Learn Respect

This actress booked a make-up artist (MUA) for an event the next day. Even if it were late, the road manager (RM) sent a message to MUA. MUA did not hesitate even though it was his day off on the day of the event. When MUA was already in the event grounds, he received a text from RM saying his services were not needed because the sponsors provided their own make-up artists. Of course, MUA was irritated and felt that he was treated as a mere spare tire.

MUA is not an ordinary beautician in the industry. Though still young, MUA had training abroad and studied his profession. He even has an impressive portfolio of his works. Sometime ago, MUA even got into a bit of controversy when he was criticized for making a teen-age performer look much older than she really was.

Avoiding the Wrath

Image courtesy of www.lismorgan.com

The event called for celebrities to donate voluntarily for the charity auction. One personality donated a designer bag, which was successfully sold at the auction. The said designer bag fetched a huge sum from a buyer. A few days after, the buyer demanded a reimbursement of the amount as the designer bag was not authentic. Thus, the winning amount was way too much for the bag.

Quietly, the organizers reimbursed the buyer but they opted not to relay the incident to the personality. No one among them dared to talk to the personality. The personality can be emotionally wrathful, and the auction organizers did not want to experience this.

Boorish Endorser

Image courtesy of www.zazzle.com

Some time ago, two endorsers (E1 and E2), a manager (M), a columnist (C), an ad agency (A), and a product (P) got into a controversy. C wrote that E1 walked out because E2 got on her nerves. A few days later, M called for a presscon to clear the name of E2. In interviews, E1 repeated that she has never walked out on any of her commitments. A even issued a letter that put C on the spot. So, what did really happen?

It was true that there was a walkout but it did not involve E1.

First, let us look at the demands. On taping day, E2 criticized the wardrobe for the shoot. Then, she complained that the venue was too warm and the aircon was not enough. Moreover, she questioned why there was only one dressing room. When the husband of E1 sensed the tension, he took it upon himself to bring down the stuff of his wife so as not to bother the production staff. Then, he was warned not to let E1 go to the dressing room as E2 was in a fit. E1 had to change in the common comfort room.

Second, here is the answer as to who really walked out. As a way to lessen the tense atmosphere, the staff of A went up to see E2. Each one approached E2, who was seated in a corner with her head bowed down and they greeted her. The head handed her a gift. E2 replied at the top of her voice, “Thank you for the gift but you’re stressing me out!”

The head paused, stared at E2, and walked out. The staff followed. Before shutting the door, the head said, “That woman is very rude. Mal educada!” This dialogue was said loud enough for E2 to hear.

Hence, there was indeed a walkout and it was really because of E2.

Exhausted!

In an event sometime ago, the production crew realized that one of the models, a young actor with a nice physique, was the only one who had yet to be made up. The call time was 12 pm for blocking and other production instructions. By 3 pm, all except for this young actor were already prepared for the show. The show was starting in two hours and he was still missing.

Incidentally, the crew saw the young actor asleep in one of the holding rooms. The make up artist asked the young actor if he had just arrived. The young actor gave him the attitude and replied, “No! I have been here for some time. No one bothered to look for me!”

Of course, the make-up artist just kept quiet. The young actor must really be that exhausted for him to hide and get some sleep.

Pigging Out in the Dark

Image courtesy of www.burnthefatchallenge.com

In a fashion event last week, a lifestyle columnist (LC) was seen digging into the salad while models were doing their catwalk on the ramp. In the dimly lit area of the tent, LC stood in front of the food table and bent over the main bowl of the salad greens. He was picking and dipping the leaves with his bare hands. 

LC must have been so hungry that he forgot his plate, fork, and manners as well. Perhaps, the salad was so delicious that the socialite in him completely forgot people could see how distasteful he was in eating from the main salad bowl.

A Peek Into Her Closet

Image courtesy of www.fineartamerica.com

The sexual preference of this actress is an open secret. During her younger days, rumors were persistent over her having relationships with women. However, these rumors were never quashed even if she got married. The husband, who perhaps knew the truth, did not make a public fuss over the blind items alluded to her. They were a happy and well-respected couple.

The actress is reportedly living with the daughter of a very popular showbiz couple. The husband and grown-up children of the actress knew of her relationship and they respected her decision. However, when a major crisis hit her marriage, the actress stayed at the bedside of her husband until the very end.

Theorists say that sexuality is fluid, which means that sexual preference can possibly change throughout one’s lifetime. Take the case of this actress. Just like her family, let us not force her to get out of her closet.

Just Catch Up

Image courtesy of www.justcatchup.be

The young couple broke up recently and the actor openly admitted the end of their relationship. He even went on air to tell the viewers of a talk show that he was the one who ended it. On the contrary, it was the singer-actress who broke up with him. However, he beat her into saying it first.

Stories have it that the actor often looked down at the singer-actress. She felt that he was getting too insensitive with what he was saying and how he was treating her. Since the actor is the prized catch of the TV station, as proven by his successive projects (never mind the ratings), his ego has affected their relationship. He would tell her to catch up with his status. He made her feel she was not worth his stature.

When they were on location, fans swarmed around the actor to have photos with him. The singer-actress stepped aside. When the fans left, the actor reprimanded her for leaving him. What is ironic is that his big ego is quite the opposite of what he is known for.

Show a Little More Respect!

The actress made a big fuss when a car blocked her parking slot at the high-end condominium where she and her actor boyfriend are rumored to be staying. She called the attention of the guards and threatened them. She even asked if they did not know her. Then, she eventually said she was ______. Of course, such scandalous behavior was uncalled for in such a ritzy place.

In another incident, in a mall near the same condo, an elderly woman approached the said actress and asked if she could have a picture together. The actress obliged but her face said otherwise. While the elderly woman talked to her, the actress avoided all eye contact. Is that not showing disrespect?

Narcissistic Singer-Actress

Image courtesy of www.mental-health-disorders.org

The singer-actress has one of the prettiest faces in the entertainment industry. She has been featured in magazines and has numerous endorsements. Although, she has lived in front of the camera most of her life, she still manages to stir the interest of viewers every time she guests in talk and variety shows.

While preparing for these shows, the singer-actress is very conscious of the people with her in the dressing room. She looks at their things and abhors the fact if they use items similar to what she owns. For example, when she saw a fellow performer using a lipstick that she also used, the singer-actress insisted on giving the performer a different brand of lipstick. The singer-actress wants to be the only person using such a brand; hence, she will do anything to make sure her things are unique.

Is this behavior leading to a narcissistic personality disorder? According to www.psychology.about.com, people with narcissistic personality disorder are “self-centered because they imagine they are superior to others and often insist on possessing items that reflect a successful lifestyle… In addition, they are also preoccupied with fantasies on unlimited success, power, intelligence, beauty, or love.”

Circumvent the Aerobics

While it seems its first season finished without much trouble, a controversy is brewing in the rumor mill. As the contestants did their crunches and curbed their cravings, another competition was happening right in front of them. It was the contest of who was the better motivator of the teams. Of course, the team that won the challenges showed that it had the superior trainer. Reestablishing one as an effective fitness trainer can earn more than expected. Endorsements will increase and so will clients.

One of the trainers did not take this competition lightly and gave a lot of diva attitude for the win. The contestants felt it but they has no choice but to follow and live with the harsh training and tough stance shown to them by the trainer. As viewers wondered how fast weight was lost in a short time, allegations are floating that medicines were used in the contest.

Did the trainer have a hand in this? If the trainer indeed knew about this, why was there no objection? Is this how far one would go just to rebuild one’s image as a fitness guru?

Rudeness at the Wedding

Controversial personality (CP) volunteered to host the wedding of a friend. The guests were aghast at the coarseness of CP, who forced them to laugh at his jokes punctuated with statements that he was hosting for free. The guests were annoyed as they noticed that CP was drinking while conducting the program.

As the affair was about to end, CP asked the married couple for a message. As they were about to say their message, CP grabbed the microphone and gave his own lengthy thank you speech. The couple was very embarrassed as CP made them look like fools at their own special affair and in front of their relatives and guests.

Trouble in Fantasyland

Image courtesy of www.stonerrockpe.blogspot.com

The successful venture of the three movie outfits squashed all competitors, making the producers ecstatic over the box-office results. Their partnership enlivened the dying movie industry and moviegoers looked forward to another venture of the three. However, the co-production may not happen ever again.

Designer L filed a case on the violation of his intellectual property rights against the producers of the movie. The case stems from the use of the design of L in the costume of the villain in the final scene. In the movie credits, the name of Designer L appeared, which seems to imply that he allowed the use of his design. However, this is not the truth! Designer L never gave his consent for the use of his design in the movie. The question is whether any production person even approached him at all to ask permission.

One of the smaller movie outfits quickly washed its hands of any involvement in the case and immediately pointed to the stellar movie outfit as responsible for the production. Soon, the smaller movie outfit will attempt to clear its name of any involvement in the said case. The stellar movie outfit has yet to issue a statement on this matter.

While everyone thought all is well in the land of enormous profits, this situation merely reflects that all successful ventures will vanish into fantasy with a lawsuit involving millions.

Regretful Sign-up

Image courtesy of www.chensijia.blogspot.com

When she transferred stations, award-winning actress (AA) received her share of negative comments and her former mentor gave her the cold shoulder treatment. The new station gave AA shows but all fell short of expectations. Advertisers did not come as expected and the station experienced losses on her projects. Still, the station had a heart and gave her the exposure. Besides, a relation of hers was very close to the management.

As months went by, AA had not yet returned to her top physical form, which could be why some people lost interest in her. Worse, stories leaked out as to why there were long gaps in between her projects. The production staff complained that AA was difficult to work with given her diva attitude. For example, AA demanded her own air-conditioned tent and refused to tape when it rains. The last project AA had was a well thought out and expensive series but it abruptly ended when AA had a meltdown that was captured on TV. Her co-stars and the production staff were very disappointed at that development as they lost work during yuletide.

Now, the management is letting AA go through her contract via live appearances in road shows and cameo roles in teleseryes. Feeling the station might not renew her contract, AA has sent feelers through her manager for a new home station. The head honcho of her former station flatly turned down the idea, whereas the other station is still ambivalent. Fans are in a quandary as to when and where AA will ever have a successful comeback.

Midlife Crisis

Image courtesy of www.mlcatlanta.com

This actress is living her midlife in crisis. Although movie outfits, the showbiz press, and her aging fans always welcome her rare appearances, she has no solid career as of today. In the past, she had awards, love, endorsements, TV shows, and hit movies. When she succumbed to the pressure of losing people very dear to her, she withdrew from the crowd and her career slowly slipped away.

Now, her financial woes are piling up as her flat is still in the market. Its asking price is quite high that buyers are not biting the offer. Unless, she raises the money, her future will say goodbye to the flat as the one to whom it was pawned wants her to leave immediately. The actress has yet to pay at least a single monthly interest.

Answers to queries as to what she does with the money point to her habit. Past rumors said she was on the snorting side, whereas present stories have it that she is heavily into cocktails. If she does not change her ways, then she will definitely be another wasted actress in the future.

A Fire in the Soul

“A Fire in the Soul” tells the story of a crucial event in the history of the La Sallian mission in Southeast Asia. On February 12, 1945, as American forces bombarded the City of Manila, a group of Japanese soldiers entered the De La Salle College campus on Taft Avenue and attacked the people who were living there. Twenty-four men, women, and children, and sixteen La Salle brothers died in the massacre. The Cantata commemorates their supreme sacrifice on the occasion of the Centennial celebration of De La Salle University in the Philippines.

Honest Dissatisfaction

Image courtesy of www.pastoralmeanderings.blogspot.com

The diligent manager (DM) discovered very good performer (VP) and their friendship developed into a business relationship. DM used his connections to make sure VP had good exposure in print, TV, and radio. The press often declined to write negatively about VP because of DM. Soon VP was the hottest discovery of the network. VP was given a daily show and afterwards, he had a weekly show that presented what he did best. Meanwhile, DM maintained that he and VP only had a verbal contract, as they were friends.

As VP became a household name, DM discovered that VP was getting bookings without his knowledge. Thus, DM was losing his commissions, not to mention being bypassed as the manager. When stories floated that all was not well between DM and VP, both declined to comment. In a press conference for VP, DM was present but the other guests felt the gap between them. Then, the press releases came out stating that VP has cut ties with DM. The network was the new manager of VP.

As soon as VP left DM, the showbiz press had a frenzy writing and commenting on the swellheaded behavior of VP, his distasteful jokes, and his picking up fights with other more senior performers. When he was with DM, VP had more leeway. With the new manager, VP has to report all his activities to his road manager. To make matters worse, VP’s production assistant was fired.

With the reformatting of his daily show, VP is under pressure, as he has to conform with the structure of the show unlike in the previous format where it was spontaneous that it all seemed like he was merely playing. Adding stress is the demand that the success of one segment in the new show totally relies on VP. Earlier, VP stated that he no longer wants his weekly show as he was getting tired of doing the same  thing repeatedly. This certain girl that VP dislikes will be taking over the slot of his show.

Perhaps VP should learn to count his blessings before declining offers left and right. These blessings might not last for long with his attitude. Is this attitude a result of VP regretting his decision to drop DM for the sake of bigger projects and more money? Now, he has to work very hard for every peso the network pays him and he has to conform strictly to the rules of the new management.

He's So Into Voluptuous Women

This politician has had his share of performing in comedy and drama shows in TV and cinema. He has now found a certain thrill in social networking. Compared to his contemporaries, he has been liberal in expanding his network and being active in microblogging.

In particular, he adds the curious and specifically, young girls who are awed at him. He prefers the girls to have voluptuous physiques and be at least 18 or older. Since he fears to be seen in public, he meets the girl he fancies inside his vehicle. Once he is able to convince the girl, he touches her private parts. He takes all precautions so that he can easily deny any incident that will jeopardize his political and showbiz career as well as his family image.

Behind the Pageantry

The invitation said the screening starts at 2pm. The press and the photographers arrived on time and were eager to meet the applicants. THREE hours later, nothing was happening at the venue. The press people were restless and starving. The organizers did not provide food for them.Worse, the organizers asked them to step out of the venue and return 20 minutes later. The press then saw the applicants still practicing when they came back. They wondered if the screening would ever start. After almost an hour, food was finally served.

Given the events that transpired, an important point is whether the organizers can get their act together by starting on time and respecting the media. After all, media people can make or break the future of the chosen contestants and the contest itself. Now, was the MORE than FOUR-hour wait of the press worth it?

One guest commented that the event overflowed with applicants who had all guts and confidence. Those traits are good but it was a screening for a prestigious beauty pageant.
