Surprisingly Gullible Celebrity

Owning a designer bag like Birkin or an Hermes has become a status symbol among certain people, with showbiz personalities topping the list. Instagram, Facebook, and other social networking sites are full of photos of these personalities posing with their bags. Some celebrities are praised with their taste and are spared criticisms when the public knows that the bags were bought from hard-earned money. However, critics are a plenty and taunt celebrities with comments like the bags are too classy for them or that they are merely riding on the trend.

One time, Witty Host (WH) saw that an Enterprising Pal (EP) from her social network was selling pre-owned designer bags from an Asian country. As WH has always dreamed of owning one, she contacted EP who gave her an acceptable price for the bag. WH grabbed the deal and soon, she was bringing and showing off the bag during her functions. She even told friends that she had to wait for months for her bag to arrive.

A month later, some stitches got loose, and WH contacted the shop where she can have her bag repaired. When the expert examined the bag, WH was told that the shop could not do anything, as the bag was fake! WH even argued with the expert and insisted that her bag was authentic. When the expert showed proof that the bag was a rip-off, WH was dumbfounded. 

WH immediately contacted EP to return the bag. As predicted, EP was nowhere to be found, and WH realized that she was duped for a six-figure amount. For WH, the amount comes from hard work. Unlike other celebrity-owners of designer bags, WH is not as visible on television or in the movies, but she is a favorite host for corporate events and other similar live shows. While WH belongs to the few celebrities who finished college with honors, her intelligence was not put to good use when it comes to coveting expensive things.

There are friends, and there are fake friends. These are people who for one reason or another can be more dangerous than your real enemies. If you suspect you have them, you better be cautious before they can hit you.

From industry watchers, it is said that the recent brouhaha involving Boastful Actor BA can possibly affect his career. The damage that it had caused to those involved, to BA in particular, is so huge to be ignored. And the timing was so ill, what with BA’s star already being threatened by the presence and hotness of talented Young Actor YA.

YA’s appeal is nothing to be scoffed at, and if BA’s handlers would not be quick enough to reverse the damage the issue had brought to BA, it will appear that they would be in for a slow shock. To YA’s credit, BA’s issue has allegedly worked to his advantage as shown by the public’s sudden interest on him. Suddenly, all eyes and ears were on him. Evidently, the impact of YA’s hot performance in a much-talked about show had added more feathers to his cap.

Heard from the grapevine that BA’s camp had been into panic mode since the scandal happened. Indeed the public and netizen’s reactions to BA’s blunder are nothing but discouraging. Remember that the industry can be difficult and ruthless. If the downward spiral continues longer, then BA’s camp got something big to worry about.

All things said, is it now YA’s time to hit the ground running and shine like one made for stardom? This we’ll have to see.

Her Endless Struggles

For someone so young, Controversial Actress CA had been through hell and back, so to speak. She who is from an unconventional family has seen it all happened at a tender age - everything that one can imagine. Observers believe that CA's extraordinary experiences as a child have a lot to do with how she responds to the challenges of her life. Showbiz watchers remark that her life's experiences are more than enough references for CA to draw from which probably explains why she is such a talented actress. 

CA's romance is one aspect of her that defines her a lot. More than her acting prowess, it is remarkable, to say the least, that CA has hurdled many issues related to her romance. But in the minds of the public, it is both colorful and dubious.   Nevertheless, in spite of the odds, there seems to be nothing that CA can not overcome - she is strength personified, a survivor and she knows it.   

However, there are always limits to one's capacity to endure, the tenacity to take it all. The issues seemed to be too much that could have tested her resolve and faith in herself. Reports have it that CA is trying to keep a happy disposition but the truth is - she's not so well.

As this article is being written, FP got reliable information that CA is confined right now at a hospital to seek treatment for bruises on her body. It was not revealed what kind of bruises or who could have caused them. Meanwhile, we await for the next development.

Charice Pempengco Reunites with ‘Ninang’ Oprah

Source: www.inquirer.net

Singer Charice Pempengco reunited recently with talk show host Oprah Winfrey, who once touted her as the “the most talented girl in the world.” The 22-year-old recording artist sat down with her ninang (godmother) for an interview, which will be aired on Oct. 19 in the US reality TV series “Oprah: Where Are They Now?”

(Charice asked Winfrey to be her godmother, and was baptized and confirmed in Catholic rites on May 22, 2010.)

In a teaser video uploaded to the official YouTube account of The Oprah Winfrey Network, the media mogul was shown asking Charice—who came out as lesbian last year—if she “were thinking about transitioning to becoming a male.”

On “The Buzz” last June 21, Charice admitted that she was a bundle of nerves prior to the interview, which the singer described as “detailed and intimate.” “When I entered the studio, she (Winfrey) told me, ‘Don’t be [nervous]. This is your homecoming,’” she said.

Charice added that Winfrey, who introduced her to renowned music producer David Foster, made her comfortable throughout their chat. “It was sort of my coming out in the United States,” she said.

Oprah Winfrey (right) hugged Charice and assured her: “I’m proud of you.”

She also said that, off-cam, Winfrey hugged her and said, “I’m proud of you.”

“Where Are They Now?” features the current lives of different personalities who created headlines in the now defunct gab fest “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” The Oct. 19 episode will also feature Carmen Electra, singer Macy Gray and radio host Shadoe Stevens.

Asked for more details on Charice’s guest appearance, talent manager Glenn Aldueza said they were not allowed to talk about it further until after the interview aired.

Charice appeared four times on “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” The first time was on May 12, 2008, when she belted out Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing.” She returned on Sept. 9 the same year and performed Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” with Foster on the piano.

On May 18, 2009, Charice sang her debut North American single, “Note to God,” from her self-titled international album. The following year, on May 11, Charice was again given a spot in the show to do a live performance of her second single “Pyramid” with rapper Iyaz.
