Wrong Deal

When reality hits that no one wants your services as an actor or your prowess as a lover, you need to humble yourself and not be choosy with opportunities that would come your way. During these times when his career is no longer as lucrative, Former Heartthrob (FH) had to accept a deal from a company that makes bags. The offer was still going to give him a bit to alleviate his financial situation.
The deal was to endorse the products via a photoshoot that would be featured on social media, tarps, and posters. Immediately, FH was paid in full. In addition, the management gave him some products that he could sell or give as gifts without asking payment. The transaction was over and FH received more than what he was offered. After a few weeks, FH came by the company and asked if he could be given some more products for his relatives and friends to endorse with their social media accounts. The management agreed.
Later, FH returned and requested for more products. He said that he will be giving the products at an event of a charity organization. His pitch was that the gesture would be good for the CSR image of the company. The owner asked the name of the organization and FH dropped a name.
What FH did not know was that the owner is a good friend of one of the officials of the charity organization. The owner called the official and said that FH would be bringing products to their event. The official said that their event was already done a few days ago. No FH and bags came.
Much to the disappointment of the owner, an investigation was conducted. The owner found out that all the products FH requested were being sold by his friend. Instead of allowing anger toward FH to prevail, compassion filled the owner’s heart and just FH be. However, FH was no longer allowed to pull out any product. Worse, his contracts were terminated and all the materials from his photoshoot were removed.

Repost: Angel Locsin Almost Quit 'Showbiz' at Low Point in Her Career

The storm has passed and now it can be said: Angel Locsin was once on the verge of leaving ABS-CBN, and even submitted a resignation letter, after being overcome with self-doubt amid a series of challenges in her career and personal life.
Locsin, 33, made the candid revelation during a press conference Thursday for the upcoming primetime series “The General’s Daughter,” set to premiere on January 21.
The Dreamscape production, billed as one of ABS-CBN’s flagship programs in 2019, marks Locsin’s first lead role in a teleserye in five years. (She guest-starred in the 2017 fantaserye “La Luna Sangre.”)
“She is back,” goes the promotional tagline of “The General’s Daughter,” referring to Locsin’s long-awaited television return after 2014’s “The Legal Wife.”
Locsin agrees on the project being termed her comeback, especially after the turbulent time she had gone through.
“Nawala ‘yung tiwala ko sa sarili ko,” she began. “Feeling ko I’m a big disappointment noong time na ‘yon. Hindi ko nagawa ‘yung ini-expect of me. Iyon ‘yung nawala sa akin.”
Days leading up to the press conference, Locsin, in an Instagram post, referred to 2015 as a challenging period, and the year that followed as one that “broke me.”
Describing how she felt then, the actress said: “Disappointed ka sa sarili mo. ‘Yung mga times na akala mo, okay ka, pero ngayon kung babalikan mo, hindi ka pala okay. In denial ka lang. Trying to be strong, pero hindi ka okay, e.”
It was in 2015 when Locsin first revealed nursing a spine injury. In 2016, her role in a passion project, “Darna,” was effectively sent into limbo as she sought treatment for her back. That same year, she went through a bitter breakup with then-boyfriend Luis Manzano. In 2017, Locsin officially withdrew from “Darna,” citing her physical condition.
During the press conference, Locsin did not detail her past struggles, but said she drew strength from people who continued to believe in her, in particular the team behind Dreamscape, as well as executives of the Kapamilya network.
“Kinausap ako, tinanong kung ano ang gusto ko, hindi ako pinayagan mag-resign,” she said, referring to ABS-CBN President and CEO Carlo Katigbak. “Kahit ayaw mo na, kahit hindi ka na naniniwala sa sarili mo, pero may mga taong naniniwala na kaya mo, na nandiyan, nakasuporta lang sa ‘yo, talagang mabubuhayan ka ng loob, e.”
“Dahil sa kanila, nandidito ako. Dahil sa mga taong patuloy na sumusuporta sa akin. Dahil sa inyo na naniniwala sa akin, nandito po ako. Feeling ko utang ko ito sa inyo,” she added, addressing press members and her followers.
Locsin surmised that she needed to survive those testing years, “para marating ko kung ano ako, ‘yung outlook ko ngayon.”
For one, she has a newfound “maturity” when it comes to tackling physically demanding roles, citing her spine condition. Dubbed by fans as the “Action-Drama Queen,” Locsin has a track record of performing her own stunts, admittedly to the point of recklessness, in various portrayals.
While she still gets to do stunts now, “hindi na lang basta-basta.”
“Before mag-taping, nagpapa-PT (physical therapy) na ako, para the next day, kondisyon na ‘yung katawan ko. After nu’n, bantay ako sa ice packs, hot packs. ‘Pag alam kong hindi ko kaya, hindi ko ginagawa. Pero so far, wala naman silang niri-request sa aking gawin na alam kong alanganin sa akin,” she explained.
Referring to the production staff and creative heads, Locsin said: “Maingat po sila sa akin. Napaka-ingat nga po, sa totoo lang. Ako lang ang matigas ang ulo!”
Directed by Manny Palo and Mervyn Brondial, “The General’s Daughter” sees Locsin as Rhian, a soldier raised to kill her own father, leading to conflicts both physical and emotional.
In production as early as April 2018, the series was officially unveiled in November during ABS-CBN’s “Family is Love” trade event. Its first trailer unraveled a story spanning two generations and three families, with Rhian as the central figure.
That “The General’s Daughter” is being trumpeted as one of 2019’s biggest TV productions is not lost on the Locsin, who pointed out its remarkable casting coup.
Joining Locsin in the series are big-name screen veterans: Albert Martinez, Tirso Cruz III, Eula Valdez, Janice de Belen, and Maricel Soriano.
“‘Yung mga iniidolo kong artista noong nagsisimula pa lang ako o hindi pa ako nag-aartista, hindi ko naman akalain na sabay-sabay, sa isang show, pagsasamahin? Makakatrabaho ko, makak-eksena ko sila, makikita ko kung paano sila sa set every day. Iba ‘yung shock,” she said.
Also part of the cast are Paulo Avelino, JC de Vera, Arjo Atayde, Ryza Cenon, and the breakout tandem of Loisa Andalio and Ronnie Alonte.
“Umaapaw na gratitude,” Locsin said of being entrusted with a flagship teleserye. Sana maibalik ko ‘yung suportang ipinakita nila sa akin. Gusto ko na po mag-January 21!”

Doing Everything Possible
Image courtesy of www.tasmeemme.com
When your boss says you must get that scoop, reporters know that they must use every trick in the book to get an interview with the most elusive personalities. Success means bragging rights over the other media organizations for obtaining exclusive stories. Newbies already know they must not be shy and act like veterans if they want to keep their jobs on the field and in the newsroom.
Similarly, mature reporters have already established connections who would be helpful in their goals. Even if a story is exclusive to one network, some reporters from the other stations risk crossing the line. Thus, when a network was given exclusive rights to a much-awaited event, the underlying rule is that personalities from other organizations must respect the condition.
For Feisty Broadcaster (FB), nothing can stop her and if she wants a story, she will use her connections to try to get a scoop by going around the agreements. In the past months, vibrant Media Personality (MP) was given the task to file exclusive stories on the event and the country’s Involved Luminary (IL). For several weeks, MP followed IL and when the final moment came, she thought she would have the after-event exclusive scoop. She was wrong.
When FB learned that IL was going to fly privately, she immediately talked to The Owner (TO) and asked to be in the plane as well. TO said that the seats were all occupied, but FB was insistent. Thus, TO told one of his passengers to take a commercial flight and he’ll pay for the fare.
During the flight, FB was rushing MP to end her interview with IL, as her interview was going to air immediately, unlike MP’s. FB allegedly made a side comment that she should have been the first to interview IL, as MP’s show is less preferred than her network’s.
IL overheard the conversations and felt sorry for MP. When FB conducted her interview, IL gave short answers and just smiled off some questions, perhaps in solidarity with MP. Meanwhile, MP has kept silent as she does not want to taint a positive event for IL.
