Dismayed at Being Used For Publicity

Image courtesy of www.wikihow.com

Sincerity is not measured by the immediate asking of forgiveness or assurance that things will go back to normal. Many often stop at issuing an apology or asking for forgiveness. However, true sincerity is gauged by the actions after the moment of reconciliation. In showbiz, actions of celebrities behind the cameras indicate the type of person they are. Unguarded moments are the best ways to see if someone is sincere or is just acting for the sake of gaining public sympathy.

Sometime ago, Young Prima Donna (YD) thought she had it all. Her network was giving her commendable and highly talked about projects. High-value endorsements were at her fingertips. Even if she had a few negative write-ups about her attitude, damage control was easily done. However, one major problem that involved a family member (FM) and her haughty attitude set the path towards a lackluster career.

The publicity generated by this issue affected her career, and soon, she was no longer as hot as prior to the issue. However, her handlers realized that reconciliation was the only way to reverse the negativity. In a big event, YD’s camp made sure that FM was part of the celebration, and as expected, YD was admired for finally showing humility.

Months later, FM was asked about the state of his relationship with YD. For honesty’s sake, FM revealed that he felt that he was again being ignored by YD after the big event. YD does not communicate with him, and she does not even respond to his messages. Sometimes, when YD picks up, she is always in a hurry and FM can hear another kin speaking loudly in the background. When FM tries to invite YD, her response is that she is too busy to go out with him. Naturally, it seems that FM was used to win back some sympathy from the public.

Low Ratings Did It

No television show can survive without advertisers. To get advertisers, producers need to prove viewership. In its absence, no advertiser in its right mind will place a spot to any program where only a few people watch.

It will not take long before viewers will see the demise of another television program – a Lifestyle Show LS, hosted by supposedly Women of Substance WS. LS proves to be the latest casualty.

What’s bothersome is that LS is just a new program, hardly even warmed up on the boob tube. In fact, it will not be an exaggeration if a survey would show that the viewing public are not even aware that LS exists. Indeed, LS insiders will be the first to admit that LS hardly registered n the public’s consciousness since it aired not too long ago.

To make matters worse, LS only got wide publicity (albeit negatively), when some of its mainstays got involved in a notorious incident that had netizens bashing them like there was no tomorrow.

From then on, ratings reportedly dropped further down, prompting LS producers to reevaluate their stand and come up with a good decision possible – to have additional cast – a Lively Personality LP who is not exactly likeable but expecting that she can add a bit of spark to the show. But unfortunately, LP failed to deliver the needed ratings.

With a show often catching its breath just to stay alive, LS eventually gave in. Reportedly, the few remaining advertisers have begun pulling out. You guess it right – LS is now up on the chopping board – real soon.

C'est la vie!

Bossing Her Way Around

Image courtesy of www.gordontraining.com

Over the years, networks have built nobodies into somebodies. Some of the big performers had humble beginnings, and it was through hard work that they amassed fortune and fame. Once the talent is considered a big star, some close relatives start to act as though they are the talents themselves. They interfere and impose conditions, instead of remaining humble and amiable to the network staff. In short, these relatives become the nightmare of the production.

Sweet Performer (SP) and her kin is no exception. Since she returned to her network, SP has managed to create a lovable image in the eyes of her adoring fans and the public. SP has shown that she can act and even sing. Her name is synonymous to excellent returns at the box office as well as high ratings for TV dramas. The network adores her so much that she has been given the best projects so far. However, the network has once again developed an overbearing and overly protective kin (OO) that continuously meddles in the projects of SP.

In a shoot for an endorsement, OO made sure that her presence was felt in the production. During the shoot, OO kept asking at the camera angle from where SP will be taken. At one point, OO noticed that the skin of SP did not register well on screen. She further noted that the makeup was creating a poor image of SP. Worse, the skin of the partner of SP in the shoot was much better than the latter.  

As a result, the shoot was delayed, as they had to wait for the preferred makeup artist of OO to arrive. The head of the production (TH) was so mad at OO, who had the guts to decide what to do ahead of him. TH felt the lack of respect for him, as the person in charge of the shoot. Consequently, TH vowed never to work with SP again, especially if OO will be around.  

If you don't interfere with me, I'll always do something really good. - John Malkovich
