What Comes Around Goes Around
Image courtesy of www.kwirkly.com
Years ago, Prolific Actor (PA) had a very controversial relationship with Feisty Actress (FA). At that time, FA was recognized as one of the country’s effective actresses, as she can be convincing in antagonistic roles. When FA met PA, she was so smitten that she almost became obsessed with PA.
During their relationship, people did not expect that PA would be fathering a child (AC) with FA. To make matters worse, PA became doubtful if he were indeed AC’s father. Eventually, the relationship of PA and FA ended, and to cut the long story short, FA had to leave the country with AC to find peace. Her staying in the country was no longer pleasant, as PA ignored her. Given that PA had an excellent relationship with the press and a positive image then, FA was pictured as someone who was trying so hard to impose herself on a man who does not love her. Other than having to deal with rejection, FA had to be reminded that she was part of a glorious family, who was no longer amused at the dirt being slugged at her then.
As AC grew up, his resemblance to PA was undeniable. By this time, PA had already claimed to have found his ideal woman and had settled down. He was already financially stable and maintained that image of being a perfect family man. The acting genes could not be denied, and soon AC returned to pursue his own career.
Unfortunately, PA still had misgivings if AC were really his child. AC tried hard to establish closeness with PA, but the latter was quite aloof. AC merely wanted recognition, which seemed hard for PA to do. PA made AC live in a separate house. While his wife then would have understood the situation, PA made sure AC did not cross paths with his family. PA, meanwhile, was advised by peers to accept AC as his son because their looks were undeniable. Thus, PA had no choice, but to acknowledge that he has another son.
When things seemed to fit in, things did not turn out ideally for PA. His image as the perfect family man crumbled because he succumbed to his weakness: women. Thus, the ideal woman whom he thought to be his true love had enough and exposed PA for who he really is. His career at the moment is not going anywhere as well. He has not projects and is embroildered in his latest controversies as well. As for FA, she’s back and sometimes makes rare appearances in media. By contrast, AC is slowly carving his name in various acting assignments.

Second Warning for Vice Ganda: Don’t Repeat ‘Gay Bar Show’ or Else

Being naughty – or notorious –- has its price as TV celebrity Vice Ganda is finding out.
Cebu City Hall treasury employees were sent to his Cebu concert on Sunday evening to check gate receipts to implement the full 10 percent amusement tax on ticket sales.
While the final tally is still being made, on-site observations by Cebu Daily News showed a packed ballroom at the Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino. Not all guests held full-priced tickets. Buy-one-take-one tickets were snapped up.
A big crowd came despite the publicized take-down of the concert’s promotion billboards the other week on orders of the head of the Cebu City Anti-Indecency Board (CCAIB), City Administrator Lucelle Mercado, who said the images were “sexually suggestive.”
The concert was self-rated by organizers as R-13 or restricted to adults.
LIKE A GAY BAR SHOW
Mercado didn’t watch the show but said she received feedback from City Hall personnel present who compared it to a “gay bar show” with off-color jokes and sensuous dance moves.
“The show itself should not be like that. I asked from those who attended and they said it was very suggestive, like a performance in a gay bar. That’s not allowed. We are strict about that. We can’t have those kinds of shows,” she told CDN.
Mercado yesterday said she asked a certain city official to relay to concert organizers another warning against holding a similar concert again in Cebu City or else the city would impose a fine as violation of City Ordinance 1408 which creates the CCAIB.
Mercado said most concerts held in Cebu showcase singing, dancing and music performances. CDN observed the venue was packed with all seats occupied. Some guests had to stand near the exit doors of the Pacific Grand Ballroom of Waterfront Cebu City Hotel and Casino throughout the concert.
Upper and lower box seats were fully occupied. Fan clubs like the “Little Ponies” and “ViceRylle” brought their banners and streamers. On stage, ,there were no shirtless , muscled men lying down or surrounding the gay comedian as the billboards portrayed.
Vice Ganda did his first song-and-dance numbers in a long, blonde wig and glittering black unitard with boots, that showed the tops of his thighs.
Only two male dancers with blonde topnots and harem pants accompanied him, not the crowd of glistening macho companions shown in the poster.
He later changed to an oversized, pull-over shirt with a delicate cartoon drawing of Vice Ganda’s face on the front. He paired it with thigh-high black leather boots.
In his opening spiel, the popular Kapamilya celebrity, who has 2.1 million followers on Instagram and 5.4 million on Twitters, jokingly thanked the CCAIB for the hype it caused over the billboards, saying the concert was “sold out”.
The same message appeared in his website: “ViceGandangGandaSaSarili sa Cebu Concert is sold out. Daghang salamat Cebuanos for the love.”
Mercado, CCAIB chairperson, took it calmly.
“If they’re looking at it that way, that it helped, then that’s fine,” Mercado told CDN later.
”But it doesn’t really matter. The action was done because of our objection to the (billboard) layout that was presented,” Mercado told CDN, who stressed that one was positioned in front of a public elementary school in plain view of pupils.
She said what was important was that the city was able to take down the billboards for the “adults only” music concert.
BUY-ONE-TAKE-ONE
Cebu City Treasurer Diwa Cuevas said her staff were fielded to check on ticket sales at the gate during the concert.
She gave a different impression of the attendance of paying guests.
“Actually, most of the tickets used were complementary. Daghan kaayo. There were also buy-one-take one tickets. When I went inside, there were a lot of vacant seats,” said Cuevas who watched the concert.
She said concert organizers TSE Live Inc. paid the city an initial P20,000 but the treasurer’s office still had to check and count tickets received at the gate.
Stubs of paid tickets are torn off and collected. Stubs of complementary tickets or the free half of a buy-one-take-one tickets were separated.
Ticket prices ranged from P780 for the lower balcony to Platinum seats up front at P3,850.
The Cebu City Council earlier granted tax exemption for the concert, then later revoked it when the controversy broke out over the CAIB’s complaint that the billboard images were “sexually suggestive”.
The City Council had earlier agreed to waive the tax if concert organizers donated P10,000 each to three beneficiary organizations including the Philippine Councilors League and the Cebu City Task Force on Street Children.
CDN tried to contact TSE Live Inc.

Pride is Not Good Company for Your Showbiz Journey
Image courtesy of www.creamsaucepasta.wordpress.com
Being cast in one major project and occasional appearances in a network’s show is not sufficient for any starting out talent to believe immediately that he/she is already made. Several longstanding showbiz luminaries have constantly reminded young talents not to be complacent with the projects that are coming their way. A talent is only as good as his/her present project. One flop can signal the end of one’s career. Moreover, humility has been stressed as one trait young talents should always keep in mind.
Sadly, Newbie Actor (NA) who was cast in a supporting role in a monster project (MP) last year has continued with his proud ways. As early as then, NA has been said to have bragged about being part of MP and even acted as though he was a major star of the said teleserye during the last few months of its airing. At one point, he demanded to have a solo tent, which was only given to the real major stars. NA did not want to be with fellow actors, who are gathered in one tent before going on cam. Because of his attitude, some of his co-stars intentionally avoided talking to him.
Unfortunately, the ill-mannered ways of NA did not spare his family members. Sometime ago, NA reconciled with a close family member (CF), who had to leave when NA was still very young. NA decided to be with CF, as he claimed his guardian then was spending his earnings left and right. Being a minor, the agreement was to make CF his new guardian until NA was old enough to handle his own financial transactions. Therefore, NA packed up his stuff and joined CF in a pad.
Apparently, even CF could not withstand the proud ways of NA. During one of his tapings, NA was seen in a high-end SUV, which he claimed to have paid for with his earnings. However, the truth is that CF shelled out the downpayment and paid for the expenses of the pad. When NA was old enough, he left CF and decided to live on his own. Currently, he still is in one of the projects of his network, but he has yet to appear in a project aired during the strongest block for the station.
Although NA was initially rejected in several of his auditions, someone should remind him that he has all his blessings because the network and his handlers have shown him kindness. He is not an indispensable talent, as he has yet to prove his box-office power. Someone should remind NA that a humble attitude could get him far in the business and open more opportunities if he wants to make a mark in acting.
“Talent means nothing, while experience, acquired in humility and with hard work, means everything.” ― Patrick Süskind
