Class or Crass?

As it is said, no amount of success or riches can compensate for failure in the home. Indeed, at any given time, peace and harmony in the family are non- negotiable. In typical Pinoy culture, we try hard in every way we can to salvage family relationships, because no matter how emotionally strong we are, failure and animosity at home can bring us down, one way or another.

But that is not so between Beleaguered Woman BW and her supposed Close Relative CR. The animosity and never-ending saga of these two personalities date back years ago when showbiz/gossip media would feast on them like vultures to its prey. Actually, anything about BW and CR is always good copy and juicy to the bite, so to speak.

There is no love lost between BW and CR as they have been at odds for so long. Their gap has been brewing for years and widened to unthinkable proportions - at the expense of their public reputation. With all the verbal tussle between them, friends of the family believe that damage to the relationship is already irreversible at best.

The two try very hard not to be in one place together, or worse to be seen together in public. It had been the situation for so long such that many important family occasions had to be sacrificed as a matter of course.

There were unconfirmed talks in the past that more than CR, it was BW who was more open for “friendship,” at the very least. BW knew well enough how it would happily impact on her loved ones. But unfortunately, there was no opportunity to bring it through, or no one brave enough to act as go-between for them.

Then one day, something came up surprisingly that could have conveniently realized it. At a certain place, they were surprised to see each other from a distance and both of them would be crossing each other. BW reportedly prepared herself for CR and got ready to at least acknowledge the latter. What happened next, although half-expected, still surprised BW.

When their bodies were about to face each other, CR just passed by BW as if she didn’t exist, and with chin up, haughtily looked up in the air. To those who saw her, it was yet another grand snub by the matriarch.

James Reid Reveals *121#



Since Friday, a lot of celebrities have been tweeting three digits, 1-2-1, without explaining why. Luckily, to end all speculations, (and after much prodding) James Reid stepped up and explained what it is — as the new endorser of Smart Prepaid no less!

*121# is Smart Prepaid's all-in-access menu to get the best prepaid experience. Just by dialing it on your phone for FREE, you get access to your load balance, the latest and hottest offers like UC20, and more! When it comes to everything prepaid, this is the only thing you need to remember:

Asterisk

Aptly so, this new service calls for a new ambassador, hence singer and actor James Reid joins in as Smart Prepaid's latest endorser. You might remember him as a former grand winner of PBB and the movie, Diary ng Panget.

If I were you, I'd take James's word and dial *121# today! What're you waiting for?

Mind your Acting, Don’t Be Very Dumb!

Image courtesy of www.selfhelpdaily.com

Anyone who enters showbiz and dreams to make it big must do his/her homework. For the most part, they should learn about the business so they will know what to expect. Show business with all its glamour and perks is and never will be a walk in the park. Therefore, like a soldier gearing up for war, a newcomer must be well–armed and must possess certain attributes for survival: determination, flexibility, reliability, punctuality, versatility, passion.

Meticulous preparation, like a good workshop is a must if you don’t want to be eaten whole in a scene by your more experienced co-star.

Most of all, learn from your colleagues, especially the veterans who were there before you. Smart newcomers strike friendship with them knowing that they would benefit a lot from their wisdom.

Amateur Star AS is cast in a television series along with a Veteran Actress VA where their respective roles require them to have frequent scenes together. VA who is an awarded actress has an intimidating personality, known to be brutally frank.

After weeks of taping, it occurred to VA that AS has not been showing any improvement at all - could not deliver her lines without making mistakes, an indication that she's not been preparing well. Apart from that, AS’ acting leaves a lot to be desired, requiring too many takes … something that pisses off VA big time, especially when she learned that AS is not exactly greenhorn having already done a series or two earlier.

One taping day, it was the same scenario between VA and PS – unmemorized lines and acting flaws. The delay was already getting on VA’s nerves. Until she could no longer take it and decided to drop the bomb on PS. In typical VA fashion, she told her, “ Hey girl, know what? You better prepare before you come for taping. Practice acting well. Remember, you are doing a scene with me! “

It must have been too embarrassing for AS to be subjected that way in public - she cried unabashedly.

But this thing maybe a blessing in disguise. If AS is wise enough, she may yet be a better actress as a consequence of those hurts.

" Opportunity often comes in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat." -Napoleon Hill
