Happy 2013!

For the whole year 2012 that Fashion PULIS has been dishing out blind items (BI), many readers' reactions are as varied as their persona, getting affected by the stories in so many different ways. A great majority looks forward to every BI and waits till clock hits 12:05am to read it, after which they call it a night. Many treat every BI as source of fun and entertainment. Most get addicted, still others, well -- it is therapy.
And believe it or not, so many tell me and email me that among gathering of friends or even in their respective offices, during coffee and lunch breaks, Fashion PULIS BI's are very much present, and become their source of funny guessing games.
Others, especially some celebrities get bothered if they feel it is them being alluded to in the story. Same way with showbiz fans if their idol/s becomes the BI subject. But for the most part, FP readers are only curious as they take a peek at the lives of celebrities who in their eyes are larger than life.
For this reason, let us have some more fun before we bid our fabulous 2012 goodbye. Let us reminisce the TOP 12 BIs (please click on the title) we have featured for the year:
- Did Mom Know Best?
- Don't Get on My Nerves
- The Endorser's Secret
- Showing a Little More Respect!
- Young Performer Short-Changed by Management
- Her Wish Should be Granted
- Lack of Popularity
- Mom Knows Best
- Waiting for Better Man
- Did She Give It to Him
- Self-destructing 101 - Stubbornness and Conceit
- The Grouchy Smile

How Clueless Can She Get?
Image courtesy of www.fanpop.com
Take the matter of billing, for example. TM wants PT's name to come last and be highlighted with an "and" affixed before her name. Such a bold idea is tantamount to saying that PT is the forerunner or the main star of the concert. Something that does not fit PT's present stature alongside her three co-performers. Thus the billing proposal upsets the other half CI1 and CI2, who have both carved a respectable reputation in the music biz and whose versatility is beyond question. Truth is, either CI1, CI2 and CI3 are equally as good, if not better than PT - in terms of performance and popularity, at the very least.
Apart from that, TM had been advised that going for her preferred billing would put CI3's status in jeopardy owing to his affiliation with PT. Yet the stubborn TM insists and would not hear of it - not even realizing just how the appearance of the performers' names on the print (posters, tickets, press releases) will make one cringe in distaste. Indeed.
Insiders say that TM seems to be detached from reality or maybe just out-of-synch in the music scene. It's true that PT is an good concert performer, but she is far from the genius of CI1 and CI3. Which is why issues such as PT's billing in this case is definitely uncalled for, and does not bode well for PT and her family. May TM realize that sooner than later.

Runaway From Me, Please!
Image courtesy of www.whitezine.com
Beautiful Celebrity BC is so into this hot male model HM, to the extent that she tries to follow and stalk him as much as she can. BC's action is something HM abhors so much knowing that people speculate a lot on her presence whenever he is around. He can be right though because people really see them as such -- friends with benefits, that is.
At HM's recent gig with a another family member held at a posh venue at the Fort, BC arrived to give him support, with It Girls in tow. But HM wasn't impressed, he was in fact annoyed by it all. He told BC off that he wants nothing more than friendship between them. He turned her down, saying that she must stop getting too close. BC was furious saying she didn't deserve such treatment from him. Thus she made a rundown of all the help and everything that she did for him from the very beginning. People in the know ask what would she do that for? Same people reckon that she surely had vested interests right from the start.
HM's change of heart for BC is quite understandable. He knows that everything with her should only be temporary, and that BC must not claim that it will lead to anything serious. At his point, HM is right to assume that he has more to lose. Apart from a career that he and his close relative desperately desire, HM is into a serious relationship. And this one he can not afford to lose, definitely.
Will there come a time when BC finally come to her senses and stop chasing boys? Shouldn't she concentrate more on her career for the sake of her little loved ones who depend on her? Well, as they say -- a guava tree will not bear mangoes.

"Excited" at the Highway
.JPG)
Image courtesy of www.devotedtodressage.blogspot.com
On the way to Manila from one of those provincial tours, RA team's vehicle (van) was still spacious as they were only a handful of them with him, including 2 road managers.
RA was seated at the back area with RM1. The other one, RM2 and some other staff were in the front and middle seats. As they were sailing along the highway, RA was feeling bored and naughty. Thus he motioned this RM1 to give him a "hand" thing -- and nothing more. Even if they were just motioning and whispering to each other, RM2 could hear them.
Although surprised with RA's request, RM1 willing gave in to him and did what was requested. All the time that they were doing it, RM2 was well aware with everything that was going on and the conversations in
between.
Is RA really that "excited" as to do it anywhere, anytime the need hits him? Well, there are rumors about his past that seem to connect to this behavior. Or maybe it's just young hormones going so active. At any rate, RA should better be careful the next time around. Otherwise, doing it with people around is always an invitation to get BI'd in FP like this..hahaha!

Bordering on Earthly Desires
Image courtesy of www.earthlydesires.nl
A few years ago, comedy performer (CP) might have gotten her way with her male co-host (MH) in a successful series that was considered a breakthrough for the network. At that time, CP had an overwhelming crush on MH. CP cannot be blamed for her feelings as MH is the boy-next-door type, fun, and well-mannered. A very competent host, MH handled the shows entrusted to him with aplomb. Although he tried acting, it was never his genre.
Adding to his appeal is the challenge that must have enticed CP. MH has a relationship and was never rumoured to have been disloyal. In one of their out of town tapings, CP kept teasing and flirting with MH. For the production, the actions of CP were normal as she has always been funny on and off camera. In other words, there was no cause for alarm, and thus no one minded CP.
On their last night at the location, CP knocked at MH's room. Then the following morning, someone saw CP coming out of MH's room. When asked by the staff what happened, CP quipped with her deadpan style, “Finally, Papa MH gave in!”
Did MH really give in to CP, who is not exactly known as a saint? Did MH's partner learn of his alleged “indiscretion?" Or was CP just imagining things? At any rate, MH and partner's relationship is solid as a rock as to get affected. But then - who are we to say?
If the treasure box is open, even the most upright will sin.

The Ring
Image courtesy of www.jamesallen.com
Despite having a relationship, why is hunk actor (HA) so irresistible to women and could not be content with one? Since stories about his accommodating ways with women sprouted out, HA seems to hold the secret of attraction. Other than his oozing sex appeal, there seems to be something more than meets the eye.
A woman (AW) with whom HA had an encounter with could not contain her excitement from what she discovered about HA. While AW was feeling HA, she noticed and felt something different with what she was “holding.” AW had to ask HA what it was. Truthfully, HA said it was the end-result of a ring he once wore down there. Hmmm... Although AW said it felt odd like it was an extra thingy, it did not seem to bother HA anymore.
Just to verify, someone in the know boldly asked the person PE who used to be very close to HA about that extra thingy down there. PE asked how she found out about it. She answered “From a friend.” Then, PE responded with “Keep quiet na lang, it’s private.” Did PE unknowingly confirm AW’s story? Perhaps PE also got shocked that another woman knew about this bedroom secret.

Please Mind Your Child!
Image courtesy of www.goodreads.com
What happens when celebrity parents decide to split up and their children are left being second priority because mom and dad have found new partners and have started new families? Regardless of the split, children of celebrities are often under scrutiny especially when their peers find out about their identities.
Take the case of the child of a separated showbiz couple (CS). The dad of CS has found a new wife and has even moved away from the city from where his other career had once flourished. The mother of CS has kept a low profile after the marriage crumbled, and has constantly denied any connection with a married man.
The story goes that CS struck a friendship with a fellow student (FS) from an exclusive elite school. Naturally, as young adolescents, CS and FS regularly exchange text messages. Then one day, the mother of FS freaked out when she found out that CS was asking for load from her 12 year old son. Turns out, the 'asking for load' has been a regular thing between the two. Apparently, FS has been generous in passing load to CS each time the mother has loaded his mobile.
Sadly, the mother could not help but lament at how CS, at such a young age, can just as easily and naturally ask her young son for a load. “Oportunista” was how she labelled CS.
Perhaps, CS' behavior or misbehavior got more magnified because she is a child of celebrities. Asking for a load might seem “cute” at the stage of adolescence, but it sends off a wrong message that might lead to more and bigger demands later on. As such, celebrities or not, parents must be extra cautious at how they behave in front of their children. Kids are like sponges who absorb everything that they see and hear from their elders.
As it is said biblically, "Train up a child in the way he should go. And even when he is old, he will never depart from it. "

Knowing Her Limits
Image courtesy of www.ohiogop.org
A pretty celebrity PC is allegedly into .....
For a while, the public was awed by her entry into showbiz, sometimes unbelieving that she would even give it a try owing to her enviable background. The adventurous PC found showbiz unorthodox and fun. The welcoming public was accepting of her rawness ... and intrigued how she will match and be at par with popular relatives. Indeed, it was very encouraging in the beginning, but then some sad realities set in, that was when it began to affect and consume her.
PC had had so much unhappiness going on in her life -- her family in particular, and a career that is neither here nor there. To her credit, PC keeps reinventing herself, yet she feels there's always that vacuum, something that's always not there. Obviously she is in the process of reassessing her priorities, her career - movies and shows that hardly made impact. Everything boils down to a downward trajectory. Add to that, a relationship with her loved ones that is from from ideal.
Perhaps a girl like her can only take so much. And the bad side of it is that in the industry, there is always a "go to" option when everything gets to be be breaking loose -- as in when you want to get numbed from it all. And so PC allegedly succumbed. For how long? Only she has the answers

Some Kleptomania among Mates
Image courtesy of www.mates.co.uk
In several of their episodes, reality search winner young star YS1 often complained of having lost some of her stuff and couldn't pinpoint why and where it had all gone. First, she lost her pricey lipstick, then the following week, it's some other make-up item again, then another. She has lost countless pieces of make-up stuff.
Turns out, there's a real culprit behind it all. Just when she thinks it's safe enough, another young star, YS2 (who is 'supposedly' close with YS1 ) gets busy with YS1's bag hauling stuff that interest her. But as it's said, someday, somehow, you will meet your comeuppance..sooner than you think.
One fine episode day, again in the dressing room, YS2 was caught red-handed "sweeping" away YS1's stuff placed on top of the make-up area towards YS2's bag. Oh, those fingers/hands right inside the cookie jar, what can be more damning? Soon YS2 gave a silly excuse that it was an honest mistake, as she thought it was all her own stuff she was putting away. Was it really an honest mistake or something ill-intentioned?
Oh well, there will always be endless lies and excuses. Let's tell them to the marines then.

Going Beyond Help
Image courtesy of www.kotobooks.com
While much has been written about this Intense Actor (IA) succumbing to his old habits, have people done enough to help IA get out of his struggle? A few days ago, at his new network's party, showbiz was rocked with another incident of IA’s notorious drunkenness. At the event, alcohol flowed freely, of course. IA, who after undergoing rehabilitation for months and promised on television that he would reform, could not help himself. What was worse was the alleged story that IA actually brought his own stash at the party. To review the events, IA in his drunkenness turns into his Jekyll mode and reacts regardless of who gets hurt. He stole a kiss from a socialite/TV host (SH), then calls “cheap” and threatens to hurt well-loved beki personality (BP), and even challenged a young dramatic actor of the network.
Of course, the three did not want to let the incident pass, but they knew better than to argue with a drunk. Moreover, a few weeks ago, his family has appealed for understanding as IA is also suffering from bipolarism. IA was lucky that the boyfriend of SH was not around or else, there might have been an unwanted confrontation. After cooler heads intervened, IA realized what he did was wrong and apologized to the three. Then, in an interview regarding the incident, IA denied of any wrongdoing in the event. However, instead of fanning the flame again, the three continued to forgive IA.
It is sad that IA, who happens to be one of the most talented and versatile actors of his generation, could not seem to rise above his struggles. After his personal tragedies that came one after the other, he has allowed himself to be defeated again. What could really be troubling IA all these years? Lately, stories about his behaviour are coming out as speculations. The most surprising story is that he was allegedly taken advantage of while he was languishing in jail sometime ago. Of course, no one will talk about this allegation as what happens in jail, stays in there.
The only thing IA definitely loves is his career, but if he refuses to accept that his alcoholism is his big problem, he might lose that as well. Although the industry can be forgiving, it can only take so much. One word from management, and IA can just disappear into oblivion. He needs to face his problems head on, accept his losses, and cut clean. At the rate he's going, his reputation is already deplorable and pitiful.
Only a few actors have sunk so low and made successful comebacks. One is now a politician, another is the premier dramatic actress, and a comedian turned versatile actress. They have revelled in their lives, until they realized that taxes, bankruptcy, alcohol, gambling, and drugs have consumed them. Then, they woke up with the help of people who dared to believe in them at the lowest point of their lives. The rest, like IA, need people who will continue to have faith in them, but before looking for others, IA should look into himself first.

So Strings Detached
Image courtesy of www.ilocanoyork.com
It seems that infatuated actress (IA) has a favorite vegetable for her 'yaya' and helpers. IA would buy pails of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. subsp. sesquipedalis or yard long beans, or whatever you call it, 'sitaw' will always be 'sitaw.' Then, she will have them cooked and frozen. For the next two weeks or until supply lasts, 'sitaw' would be the staple viand for her entire household staff. As to why she loves 'sitaw,' we can only guess. Definitely, buying them fish or meat will get her love points.
In another incident, her road manager (RM) came in a few minutes late for IA's out-of-town shoot. IA already left the house and was already on the road to the shoot. RM thus got on a cab and instructed the driver to go fast and chase IA's car. Thankfully, they were able to reach her at the stop light, such that the cab and IA's car were already beside each other. But to RM's dismay, IA would not open the car to let her in. She was so deaf to RM's pleadings and the cab's repeated honking. When RM realized the futility of her appeal, she had no choice but to take the same cab to get her to the far away location shoot. Needless to say, that meant a sizeable amount of fare money.
Unlike some other popular personalities, IA is never known to have violent streaks towards her helpers. She comes from a well-off family background and she is one of the more popular showbiz personalities. A star of her status, with huge talent fees, she can, at the very least, provide her helpers comfort and care.
Will there come a time that IA live up to her name in treating her help right? Remember, unlimited loyalty is something not feasible with just unlimited 'sitaw' supply.

Edward and Jacq have no child and when the latter learned of her husband’s predicament, she gave her permission to Edward to help Grace in her quest to save their son. But there was only one option for their son to be cured: they have to have another child - to be conceived the natural way! Which made us recall the plot of the novel (which was made into a movie) “My Sister’s Keeper.” The couple in the movie had to conceive another daughter to provide the blood, bone marrow and even her kidney in order to save her sister’s life.

Another Side of Her Story
Image courtesy of www.library.arizona.edu
Hi! I used to work in a medium-sized hospital in Manila, Sampaloc area in the 90's. I was assigned to the delivery room/nursery.
A woman Mrs. X gave birth there. Holding her prenatal history form, I interviewed her to fill up the information on the form. On the spouse's occupation entry, Mrs. X claimed the father of her baby was a driver. Her companion volunteered the information that Mrs. X was the mother of a certain star, CS. My co-workers and I were quite surprised. However, we did not take it seriously.
The baby was of average weight and pure Filipino features. Few days after Mrs X and baby were discharged from the hospital, the baby was admitted and confined again due to complications of pneumonia. We were shocked when we saw CS was there in the hospital. She was accompanied by a big foreign looking guy FG. FG approached one of the staff and requested her to change the baby's family name to CS' real and reel family name. When my colleague told me about this, I approached FG personally and told him that the nurse station is not the appropriate venue for this kind of request.
Just saying...because everytime I hear CS talk about how "classy" her mom is, I can't help but remember that hospital incident. No offense meant but the mother at the time did not look in any way near what CS projects her to be.
Thank you, Fashion PULIS for publishing this letter.
Sincerely,
Nurse Genny

Like or Dislike: Janine Tugonon's Answer to Nigel Barker's Question
Nigel Barker: "As an international ambassador, do you believe that speaking English should be a prerequisite to being Miss Universe? Why or why not?"
Janine Tugonon: "For me, being Miss Universe is not just about knowing how to speak a specific language. It's being able to influence and inspire other people. So whatever language you have, as long your heart is to serve and you have a strong mind to show people then you can be Miss Universe."

Her "Alcohol-ic" Moment

Is this breakthrough actress (BA) letting her success get into her head this at early stage of her career? At a young age, BA achieved unexpected fame and success when she was cast in a phenomenal hit series by her network. Although she did not portray the role of the protagonist then, her role and performance made an impact as it provided contrast to that one portrayed by the lead teen actress. After that series, people were surprised when the network paired BA with an award-winning actor. In the beginning, negative comments revolved around their lack of chemistry, and BA's youthfulness to handle such a mature role. However, the extended length of the series and the unexpected high ratings proved her critics wrong. Just before it ended, stories had it that she would soon be starring in a movie with her leading man in the said teleserye.
With such overwhelming success , the cast were in a recent event where the fans got to mingle with the rest of the talents of the network. To the dismay of fans who came over to see them, BA behaved very indifferently towards them. Unlike the other bigger stars who shook hands, mingled and kissed some of the eager fans, BA sulked and was not friendly and only appeared to shake hands out of pressure. To make matters worse, they were offended when they saw that as soon as she shook hands, BA applied alcohol on her hands several times. Although people can argue that she was just being hygienic, the act was definitely uncalled for and in bad taste. BA sent a message that she was insincere and hypocrite, as things like that could have been done more discreetly so as not to offend people, her fans especially.
Has BA suddenly forgotten her humble beginnings? Were it not for luck, maybe she would have also ended as one of those adoring fans finding greatest joy shaking hands with her idol. How time flies indeed.

Cursing Her Way Through

Of course, this incident with BA should no longer be surprising. After all, BA is known to spew hateful words at her target, and her notoriety is all over and has polluted her social networks. The poor man should not at all feel bad as BA is publicly known to disrespect anyone who catches her ire -- her own family included. Hence, what more for a stranger like him? Will BA ever reform her rude ways? It is pitiful that her actions show how much breeding she has. Can someone please remind her that fame and wealth can never cover up her lack of breeding nor will her beauty stay on forever?

Cry Me a River

In acting, it takes so much to build up certain emotions, you really have to work hard and internalize a lot especially during drama scenes. Routinely, every scene is repeated 5 to 6 times for blocking and/or camera work. That is assuming it is a good take. Thus when acting is bad and needed several retakes, it would be very taxing for the production and most especially for the actors who will have to act out the scene over and over again.
In one taping day, PA and MA had a heavy dramatic scene together where PA had taken too many retakes for a crying scene alone. PA found it very difficult to meet the acting requirement of the director. As a result, her co-actor MA's very heavy scenes would have to have several retakes too, which proved to be very draining and tiring on her part.
It was at this point when the very disciplined MA, lost her cool and complained to the director. In her characteristic fashion similar to her movies, MA showed what she was made of. With gravy-thick sarcasm, she angrily blurted out (in tagalog):
" What the f, direk! How long are we going to waste time with these endless retakes?! I always come to the set very prepared with all my heavy scenes, and then that (referring to PA), she can't even cry?! can't even act?! Did she ever do workshop? Is she really an actress?! "
Then she let out a big sigh. PA who was just within the area, heard everything said about her and cried. Oh well .. poor thing.
On the other hand, while she was at it (crying), perhaps PA could have used that to motivate herself in her scenes with MA. Or probably her heartaches and jealous fits with the love of her life. Acting 101. Just saying.

Construction in Progress
Image courtesy of www.signs4safety.co.za
Handsome actor (HA) is truly blessed these days. After a network gave him the biggest break in his career, he now has a stable career and fame that made him a household name. For HA, it is not all looks that worked for him as he is a very talented actor, and thus, deserves all the opportunities given by his network.
The network is pairing off HA with a young actress, but it seems that she is more interested in another actor in real life. Nonetheless, HA really does not need to have a constant screen partner as he can very well carry projects on his own merit. However, behind the spotlight are rumors that HA is someone’s special talent, which is the reason why he is allegedly well taken care of.
The latest twist in the affairs of HA is the involvement of another network executive (NE). NE has allegedly been dealing with a builder for a certain area for a house. NE was very particular with the specifications of the project, hence, the assumption that the construction was for NE’s home. To the surprise of everyone, the project was not for NE, but for the kitchen of HA's home in a plush village.
So, what is the relationship of NE and HA? Is NE merely helping out HA or is there something in return? Is the alleged original benefactor of HA aware of this? Truly, HA is reaping the fruits of his labor as not only one network executive is fretting over him.
