Basking in Notoriety

Image courtesy of www.blingcheese.com

For the nth time, the disgusting siblings DS can’t seem to have it all. Every character in the industry who have had the misfortune of having to deal with them seems left with nothing positive to say. 

Haven’t heard of notoriety being displayed with so much passion by anyone more than these two. Truth be told, insiders say that no other showbiz siblings have been hated and bashed as much as DS. Reportedly, even in their own network, they are loathe and despised by most of their colleagues and network people. 

Just how annoying can they get? This is a no-brainer question - there is nothing in the planet that DS have not yet done to agitate, distress, torment, irritate, pester, anyone and anything that moves. People say that if there is an award for such kind of species, they sure would have gotten it long time ago. 

So what’s the latest buzz/complaint this time?

On the set of their tv commercial (tvc) shoot, DS made it known to the production team PT that they would not come to the shoot UNLESS everything was set. DS said they would not want to wait and would only appear  when all was done and ready – the entire cast and crew, production, costumes, scripts, director - all the works present. DS emphasized these so many times - that unless these were met, they would not come to the shoot. All because they would not want to wait. 

The entire PT was visibly annoyed at the toxicity of the sisters. The way that DS display their attitude towards anyone you would think that the world owes them big. Wonder how their supposed disciplinarian elders deal with DS’ haters – must be very  challenging – or rewarding.

Letter from a Reader: Going, going...gone.

Dear Fashion PULIS, 

Just want to tell you my sentiments regarding Sphere. I don't know if you saw the tweet from @LikeS during its T5 launch, nonetheless here is my story.

This was just recently at the launching of Sphere's T5 line. I was following their twitter account and happened to stumble on a tweet offering the line at a price of 1,499php per month. I was enticed by the offer so I immediately asked the @ChatwithS and @SinOfS for the requirements. I also inquired about their website showing a plan 1,799 only but without the 1,499php which was their current offering that I was interested in.  

After more than 12 hours, @ChatwithS replied asking me where i saw the information and requested me to provide a link. The tone of the message was quite rude, and as if to add more insult, he/she put a a smiley at the end of the message. 

Furious, I immediately searched my whole feed and backtracked the @LikeS  account -- but to my dismay, I could no longer find the tweet. My mistake was my failure to take a screenshot of it, although a lot of people in the office saw that tweet. 

Enraged, I replied telling them that I saw the tweet but now the tweet was gone. I further added , "Ganyanan na pala. Tsk." 

The reply?  " How may we help you today? :). " 

You're getting the picture now, FP.

I  said, "No thanks - @Wise (their competitor) can help me better.

Now they tweeted me saying their T5 plan is available at plan 1,599php and I'm like sheesh Sphere.

For clarification, I have a different plan on @Wise already. 

Thank you very much, FP for providing an avenue for aggrieved consumers like me. More power!

Sincerely,

Loida

Marjorie Barretto on Photo Scandal: "No, That's Not Me!"

Note: These are the two scandalous photos showing a 

likeness of Marjorie Barretto, albeit with the sensitive parts cropped out.

Source: www.interaksyon.com

Actress-turned-politician Marjorie Barretto denied on Monday that she is the person in two scandalous photos that had circulated on Facebook over the weekend.

“No, that’s not me. I would never do something like that. That’s not my nature,” the Caloocan City councilor said.

The two photos show a likeness of Barretto posing and smiling in an intimate setting.

The first shows the woman with a portion of her shirt lifted up to expose her right breast while her legs are covered by a blanket. There is no breast exposure in the second photo, but the legs are spread wide open, exposing her black underwear as her left leg is propped up by the protruding leg of the photographer.

Barretto vowed to enlist the help of the National Bureau of Investigation in finding out the source of the photos, which were originally published by tabloid Hataw on Friday.

She did not speculate if the circulation of the photos is related to the ongoing feud that has split her family.

Keeping Up with the Make-Believe

Teleserye lead actress LA felt she has many great things going for her: a great career, supportive family, and reportedly, a blooming romance. So many things to be thankful for such continued success  indeed, so much so that when her birthday came, she decided to celebrate it with a bang.

On the set of her teleserye TE, LA made it known to the production team PT and the cast how much she appreciated them for their support and friendship.  As such she showed and made them feel what she meant by celebrating her birthday and treating all the cast and PT to a fabulous birthday treat right on the set. LA had the food catered by one of the best in the industry. Needless to say, everyone had a good time, it was a party to remember.

Few days after, from out of the blue and for no known reason at all,  another star ST of TE, decided to throw a big bash for the whole cast and PT right on the set, too. In the same fashion as LA days ago – it was a fab and awesome party, too. Many on the set were initially clueless as for the reason for the party as it was neither ST’s birthday nor any recent career high that they knew of  - until ST made known her reason why. She said that it was a “thanksgiving party” she was giving to thank everyone present for her success as an actress in TE. ST said she had been getting very favorable and encouraging feedback for her performance in the soap, especially from the social media.

Though surprised, majority of those present gave in to her and appreciated her for the effort. But there were also some who knew  ST’s real motive. They said that ST was such an insecured soul and a hypocrite for claiming something she knew she was not, and that the party was meant to match or even surpass that of LA’s, for reasons known only to her.  

Looks like this will be a never ending “silent war” between the two main protagonists – both reel and real.

Letter from a Reader: Cause for Alarm

Image courtesy of Fashion PULIS reader

Hi FP, 

I am an avid follower of your site, kudos for finding the juiciest gossip in town. My apologies in advance for this rant but I can't help myself from sending you my concern. 

As I was watching this weekend show,  3 little girls and some other network talents were dancing to Cindy Lauper's song "She Bop." Do they know that the song is kind of touchy due to its sexually suggestive content? Are they aware of the fact that it has something to do with mas**r*ation??? I was awed and very disturbed while watching the whole production number.  Can't the production staff do some due diligence in researching the content/message of the song or any materials they use before subjecting its talents (especially little girls) to use it for a song/dance number?  

I am not prude by all means but the fact that there were kids involved made me really cringe and I'm sure that other like-minded viewers felt the same way, too. By writing to you I hope this catches their (the network's) attention and they would be more circumspect next time. 

We all know that in media organizations, entertaining and responsible programming is key. As such, these networks should be very vigilant and adhere to the social responsibility they were tasked and vowed to uphold.

Thanks for your time in reading this, FP. 

Responsible citizen,

Anna

Gretchen Barretto to Address Family Issues Privately

Source: www.sunstar.com.ph

ACTRESS Gretchen Barretto became emotional while giving a short message regarding the recent controversy involving her family.

Appearing on Sunday talk show "The Buzz," Gretchen said it is not easy that her life is being scrutinized by the public.

"Hindi madali ang pinagdadaan ko ngayon. Hindi madali yung pinag-uusapan ka ng buong Pilipinas. Hindi madaling pakinggan yung pinagdaanan ko... yung childhood ko," she said.

The actress appealed for privacy, saying family problems should not be discussed in public.

Gretchen said 18-year-old daughter Dominique knows her story.

"Many years from now lilingunin niya itong nangyari sa akin. Maaalala ni Dominique na my mom never fought. And that's what's important to me. Yun ang importante. That's what I like to leave behind," she said.

Earlier, Gretchen was called a "liar" and capable of "evil manipulation" by her own mother Inday Barretto.

Gretchen's brother Joaquin came to her defense but other sibling Gia Barretto-Reyes sided with Inday, lambasting the actress for allegedly hurting their family.

The actress has already hinted at taking legal action against Gia.

Brewing Trouble Behind The Show

When the variety show needed a change after its original director left, the network decided to have two directors handle the show. The system was implemented such that Directors A and B would alternately take charge of the show every other week. After all, two heads were thought to be better for the show.

Unfortunately, demoralization among the production is brewing after they found out the negative comments of some followers of Director B in his alleged site. In the fansite of Director B, criticisms regarding the work of Director A persist, and some are even demanding for the resignation of Director A.

Sadly, the bullying tactics of the followers of Director B are affecting the morale of some production people. They feel that instead of discouraging such comments, Director B, as the alleged owner of the said page, is actually letting his fans dish off the criticisms. Some comments paint hatred it when Director A earns praises for a job well done. 

The consequence is that the show's episodes handled by each director have turned into an unhealthy contest between them.  Of course, the loser in the said “competition” is the production team who has been working hard for both directors. After all, the team only has the welfare of the show in mind regardless who directed which. Some are losing enthusiasm when it comes to Director B as most are sympathetic to Director A.

Instead of being inspired to do their work, most get discouraged from all the negativities that permeate the air.  If the internal matters cannot be resolved, then the show might really just fall far behind the real competition, i.e., the show on the rival channel. They better do their homework quick before the rival eats them whole. As it is, the shows' episodes of late leave a lot to be desired.
  

There is something at work that's bigger than us. It's about having a trust in life and being at peace that things are happening the way they should. You do what you do as well as you can do it, and then you don't worry or agonize about the outcome.- Sherilyn Fenn

Letter from a Reader: An Amalayer Story

 Image courtesy of www.zazzle.co.uk

Hi FP,

You probably heard of this a thousand times, pero I am one of the people who stay up late just to read your fresh gossip and hot promos every 12 midnight :)

But right now, I'd like to tell you my bad experience with a very rude lady guard at a big mall in QC North. And since this blog gets results, hopefully some people concerned get to read this and act accordingly.

Last Thursday, April 18, I went to that mall, and as usual, everyone goes thru the security inspection. But from where I was standing in the line, I saw the lady guard on duty "picking her nose" shamelessly right in front of us people in line. The sight was so gross and vulgar! I saw her holding a tissue on her hand but she chose to use her gloves to clean up the "residue."

When I was finally in front of her, I really felt icky knowing where those hands had been. Without sounding really offensive, I told her that it's okay if she threw the tissue first since I had my packed lunch inside my bag. But instead of being embarrassed, the lady guard even yelled at me, "Bakit? Ilalagay ko ba 'to sa bag mo?" (referring to the tissue on her hand)

She further went on, "Wag ho kayo maselan at baka ma-Amalayer ka!" 

I was so humiliated, and I left. All this time, her fellow guards did nothing to alleviate the situation.

By the way this scene happened at the Jollibee entrance, around 12 noon and the guard's last name was Oliveros. I often take this route and it was not just me that this boorish lady guard came in rude contact with. 

If I can be helped to file a formal complaint, please do and I thank you in advance. 

More power to you, FP and God bless us all!  

Anna
