Not So Polished Breeding

Every single week, the preparations to mount a Major Show MS is nothing but overwhelming. MS has varied themes each episode which entail detailed preparations for wardrobe/costumes and long hours of rehearsals for production numbers, among many others.

The production staff, the people who work behind the scenes for MS are no nonsense professional talents who are well-respected in their fields. Thus, the stars of MS, including the veterans, acknowledge, respect and abide by the judgment of the show’s staff.

Fussy Girl FG, along with her fellow young stars, was being prepared for her look for their themed production number for MS episode that week. The look required each of them to wear a colored wig. While the other stars had no problem wearing the wig, FG refused to wear hers as she believed it didn’t look good on her. She told her Personal Stylist PS that she wouldn’t want to wear it.

After analyzing the problem, PS went to the Show’s Stylist SS, and told him of FG’s concern with the wig. PS told SS that FG would like the head accessory to be adjusted and worn in a certain way for her to wear it. SS did not approve of the idea since it would affect the look of the other girls in their number, he told SS that FG had no choice but to wear it.

When FG learned of SS’ instruction, she was allegedly very pissed, and kept stomping her feet in disgust, and told PS to find a way to solve the problem. At this instance, perhaps tensed from the pressure, PS went back to SS to try to make a compromise once more, but the equally pressured SS stuck to his guns and lashed out at PS for being so insistent and annoying. Words were exchanged and soon after, the two stylists were already shouting at each other – all because of FG, the picky and fastidious starlet, who just shrugged off the incident from a distance, while rolling her eyes and making faces.

Letter from a Reader: Did Fake Veterinarian Wrongly Administer a Dog's Vaccine?

Dear Fashion Pulis,

Good day! I am writing if I can share with your readers my horrible experience in this animal clinic. I feel it is my responsibility to let the public be aware of this veterinary clinic's malpractice. I am doing this not just for my dog who cannot walk properly anymore after being vaccinated there, but also for my fellow pet parents out there who are paying right but are not given the service that their pets deserve. Sharing my story would mean a lot.

May I give this warning to all: Be careful every time you bring your dogs to Fil-Chi Animal Clinic ( Benavidez Branch). Always make sure to ask first if the person attending to your dog is a licensed veterinarian and not just someone pretending to be one. My dog became a victim and cannot walk properly anymore after getting vaccinated there.

A month ago, I brought my 4-year old Chihuahua for her annual vaccination to  Fil-Chi Animal Clinic. My Chihuahua had two kinds of vaccination that day. One was given on her back and the other one was on her right foot. The "veterinarian" informed me that the injected area might get swollen for the next 3 to 4 days which I believe was normal. It happened in the past when dogs get better and back to normal several days after the vaccination.  

Unfortunately in this case, my dog's foot did not heal. One week after the vaccination, I noticed how she could not walk properly and there were times she would fall when taking the stairs. When I checked her foot, I was surprised to see this swollen part on her right leg (almost the size of P25 coin). 

I brought her back to the clinic the very next day. I asked the "vet" what went wrong. He told me not to worry and it was going to be fine. He said what happened was just an allergic reaction so I believed him. (Now I felt so stupid for believing him!) The "vet" prescribed medication for my dog to take daily, which I administered to her for a week. And so another week passed by and nothing had changed - my dog can't still walk normally.

For weeks, I could barely sleep, suddenly it got to me to verify this veterinarian if he was a licensed one or not. The next day, I called different agencies to verify and to my horror found out that the veterinarian is a fake! He used his girlfriend's license number to practice veterinary! (this I found out in his Facebook account. They are in a relationship for 10 years now.)

I went back to the clinic and talked to the owner about my concern, and he insisted that veterinarian assistants are authorized to practice as long as with supervision of a licensed veterinarian. In those times, there was no one licensed veterinarian who supervised this fake vet. This I could not accept. I called up PRC (Professional Regulation Commission) office and they said they are only allowed under a special permit ( like if it is used for special mission, etc.). 

I had already submitted a formal complaint to Fil-Chi Animal Clinic last week but I have yet to get a reply from them. To the owner of Fil-Chi Animal Clinic, this I have to say: If you do not care for customer complaints like this, how much more will you care for animal's well-being that you are supposed to protect? 

Thank you, Fashion Pulis for giving me a space in your blog. 

Sincerely,
Cheska

He Likes it Cheap

As is common practice in the industry, make-believe love angles between two stars are encouraged by their management network to draw more interest from the public. This has always been part of the package aimed at those who are being groomed to be paired as love teams. Generally, in the name of stardom, stars swallow this system – hook, line and sinker.

Presumptuous Actor PA for example, will do everything in his power to attain his dream status in the industry, even at the risk of great discomfort. He had done many a “gimmick” in the past to prove his point, but more often than not, it comes off as fake in the eyes of the public.

One day, PA reportedly planned a “scripted” date with a Friendly Partner FP. Source labeled it as scripted because a romantic-comedy (romcom) project for the love team is in the offing. Indeed, PA had to work harder to hint of a serious relationship with FP. And so PA booked their dinner at a Fancy Restaurant FR and reserved a private room for him and FP. Dinner went well as the two of them have always been comfortable with each other.

Then came the bill. PA was dumbfounded when he saw the figures, almost double of what he expected! He found it too much for him to pay. Furious, he talked to FR manager and said he’s not paying the amount. The manager justified that the beautifully themed private room didn’t come cheap and so the bill was a bit high.

PA insisted that it was the restaurant’s duty to protect the privacy of its celebrity clients  from fans and onlookers by providing them rooms for the purpose. At this point, manager pointed out to PA that theirs was a high-end restaurant, patronized only by the well-heeled and not a fast food joint which is open to the general public. Thus PA can be assured that with FR, he can dine in peace and have a good time, and not worry about star struck diners and bothersome fans.  

Having said that, the manager reiterated that PA had to pay the full amount. PA’s credit card was swiped the amount including the minimum consumable to make sure he gets charged the without consumable. However, PA demanded that transaction be voided because he wanted to pay cash. But he ended up short, so FP had to chip in. FR manager gave PA full accommodation despite his highfalutin attitude. But all that came with a hefty cost – he got permanently banned from FR.

Her Weakness

Image courtesy of www.dreamstime.com

An opportunity to penetrate the international market is often a goal for most showbiz stars. However, not every performer will be given the chance to be invited to act or to audition for international roles. For the few who opted to pursue careers abroad, fewer were able to make a name for themselves. Most return home empty-handed, but make it a point to stress that they gained valuable experience, if not exposure.

When female model (FM) was announced to take on the hosting chores of an international franchise, it was a proud moment for the local followers of the said program. After all, it was another recognition that a Filipino talent was of international caliber. Besides, optimism followed as the opportunity could open bigger doors for FM.

Alas, within few weeks into the show, stories about FM’s backstage behavior are emerging. Some stories claim that FM exhibited her bratty behavior, which did not surprise those who learned about such incidents. Now, another story reveals that FM has another behavior that is indicative of her lack of skills as a host. Allegedly, FM refuses to memorize her lines and prefers to have the script fed to her via an earpiece. Her dependency on the words relayed to her dampens the spontaneity of the program. The crew was stunned as they expected FM to be more skilled. 

Too bad, but despite the exposure, FM needs to work harder or face the fact that she is not of international standards. After all, a pretty face is never a guarantee that one can wing it.

Letter from a Reader: Liceo de Cagayan University Students Clean Third Floor Classroom Windows

Image courtesy of Fashion PULIS reader

Dear FashionPulis,

Yesterday (March 13, 2015), I sent my daughters to school (Liceo de Cagayan University) and after making sure that they are inside their respective class rooms, I took a trip to the comfort room. When I was about to exit the comfort room, I noticed students shouting something from the outside. Right there and then, I stepped outside (the comfort room has an exit that leads to the back of the building) to check what was happening, and to my surprise, I saw students on the third floor cleaning their classroom. If you can see the photos, the students are standing on a very unsafe ledge. I think even construction workers need to wear harness for this kind of job. These students are young and naive and they do not realize how dangerous this can be. 

This school is rather prestigious here in Cagayan de Oro. I do not think the parents are aware that the lives of their children are in danger while they are in school. I am sure they all think that their children's teachers are taking good care of them.

My question to this school is why are the students allowed to even go outside? This photo was taken around nine in the morning when classes were ongoing, and again I ask, where are their teachers? We do not pay more than PhP 40,000 a year just to put the lives of our children in danger!

Yours truly,
Cris Dina
