Misplaced Assumptions

Image courtesy of www.illustrationsource.com

As a fallback, many celebrities are venturing into businesses. Careers in the entertainment industry are unstable and there is truth in the saying that one is only as good as the last project. If the last project flops, the celebrity might be put on hold, as producers would not want a succession of losses.

Celebrity Entrepreneur (CE) realized the possible fleeting stage of her career in only a few years of her career. At that time. CE already had a name and at the peak of her career. Thus, she banked on her fame when she opened her business. After a short-lived endeavor, CE had to close shop. However, she was already hooked on opening businesses. Similar to the entertainment industry, the business climate can be volatile and clients can be picky. Her businesses were not doing well, as the years passed.

Although CE would have projects, her calling to entrepreneurship was loud. However, she no longer has enough money to invest. It was time for friends to help.

CE tried to ask for financial assistance from Wealthy Acquaintance (WA). WA would have the money CE needed, but she did not receive any favorable response. WA was too busy with his own affairs, especially in taking care of his younger ward.

Lucky for CE, her Businessman Friend (BF) offered help. Accordingly, BF assisted CE in securing a seven-digit loan from a bank with him as guarantor. The deal is that CE will regularly deposit money in BF’s account to payback the loan. The bank will then deduct an amount from the bank account of BF. During the first few months, CE was consistent with the payment. Then, she started skipping months and soon, no payment was being transacted in BF’s account.

Sensing something was very wrong, BF went to the home of CE to ask for payment. The two talked and BF explained that he needs to be paid soon, as he has bills and tuition fees to pay. His wife has already noticed the withdrawal of the huge amount from their account regularly.

CE explained that she has no regular work and the business she opened was at a loss. As CE was alone at her home at that time, she said to BF if her body could be her initial payment and dropped her clothes. BF was aghast at seeing the naked body of CE. He replied that he is a happily married man and she’s too old for him. He insisted that he only wants his money back and told her to put on her clothes immediately. Then, he added that she should make payment arrangements within the next few weeks, or else, he’ll see her in court.

‘Every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better.’ — Steve Maraboli

Indifferent Blabbermouth

Image courtesy of www.copelandcommunications.wordpress.com

For ordinary people, having work is already a blessing for the money it will bring. Being hired for the job that someone really likes is added bonus. However, adding a premium is the employer himself/herself. Being starstruck cannot be taken away from people when they realize they are working for a celebrity. Unfortunately, thinking that the celebrity would behave in the same as the roles he/she projects on media can spell disaster.

Stay-in helpers of celebrities must deal with the attitude of their celebrity-employer. Lucky are the ones who are under celebrities known to be fair and kind. The unluckier ones need to deal with their disappointments, such as the opposite of what they expect from the said celebrity-employer. Regardless of the identity of the employer, employees must all be trustworthy. Employees of celebrities must learn to see, speak, and hear no evil. In other words, they have to keep their mouth shut, as confidentiality matters. Given that celebrities have an image to protect, any personal stories coming from their household help or employees can make for good entertainment headlines.

When Refreshing Talent (RT) hired someone to Help Her (HH), little did she know that their relationship would not be smooth. Somewhere along the way, HH was fired for reasons that remained unintelligible. HH, of course, felt bad and a gush of her negative stories with HH started to overflow. Meanwhile, RT has remained cool and quiet.

While incompetence can be a valid reason for terminating services, another more significant reason can be justified. Allegedly, RT became worried, as HH has a big mouth. As HH knows the ins and outs of the household, stories about RT’s private life were exposed to her. Instead of keeping quiet, HH allegedly let others know about why RT has a new home. RT found out and dismissed HH. The story is that RT was on private meeting with a wealthy foreign visitor. After a few weeks, RT and her family were moving to a new unit. HH was alleged to be talking about the new home and how RT’s supposed bookings have made a difference in her life.
