As showbiz adage goes: “ You are only as good as your last performance.”
Many actors go in and out of ‘fashion,’ precisely why most of them work their butts off when given a good material for it is an opportunity for them to either shine or be irrelevant forever..
The entire run of the Popular Series PS, became a test of mettle for two of its lead stars – LS1 and LS2. To her credit, even without really trying, LS2 obviously delivered a sterling performance, getting favorable reviews from televiewers and critics alike. On the other hand, while LS1 tried to be at par, her best wasn’t good enough. She was apparently no match to LS2, something that LS1 felt like a blow to her face.
As such, whether they liked it or not, some animosity had developed between the two, only they were civil about it. Expectedly, as the weeks and months went by, the working atmosphere became far from ideal, as it was kind of toxic for them. Allegedly, a kind of ‘silent war’ loomed on the set.
Despite her more inferior status being ‘less sikat’, LS2 refused to be sideswiped by LS1’s insecurity. She knew she had to be consistent in her performance as she needed further boost to her career more than anything else – and PS was her perfect vehicle.
Towards the last taping days of PS, LS2 became more fierce in her every scene, especially those with LS1 that called for more intense acting. Consequently, the gap between them widened and soured even more. As if to add fuel to the fire, something happened that none of them quite expected.
LS1 had long been suspected to have the hots for Hot Actor HA who played a support role for PS. One day, the two were allegedly caught by LS2 and a staff kissing in a room. The kissing rumor spread, LS1 was mad, suspicious that LS2 was behind it. Staff told her that there was alleged video of that kissing. She panicked all the more and told the staff to stop it and she would pay big.
Those in the know asked why LS1 got so scared. Was it because of the effect it would have on her already eroding career, or is she so afraid to lose her alleged ‘mucho dinero’ of a boyfriend if her secret is found out? Argh, surely LS1 didn’t see this coming.
“The image is one thing and the human being is another. It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.”
