BLIND SPOT

EXPIRED

A LOCAL beauty brand held a giveaway with the winners getting an x amount worth of their products. After the winners had been named, they were surprised to learn they would have to shoulder the courier’s fee. But it was OK with them since the amount of products they were supposed to get was quite substantial. Imagine their surprise when they checked the expiration dates. It was just in a month. They didn’t know how to feel. Pretty soon, they learned that the brand had sent out PR packages to influencers and the expiration dates were also in a month’s time. Was it an honest mistake? Or was it deliberate? If it was a mistake, then it’s OK but if the brand tried to palm off products about to expire, then that is another matter.

NOT IN THE SAME FRAME

THEY used to be a popular love team but they were never a couple in real life. At the very least, people thought they were civil. Recent events have pointed to the fact that they’re not even that. During a recent live show, with social distancing practiced of course, the guy asked the staffers not to give him parts where he would be in the same frame with his ex partner. He barely nodded to her when they first saw each other during quarantine. The guy had always treated the girl with disdain. He always thought he was better than her. In fact, he was so happy when the partnership was dissolved.

HER STALKER IS HER EX

THEY used to be a couple onscreen and off, but they eventually parted ways because they were very young then. They had other relationships and eventually got married to other people and had kids. The guy, an actor, fell into hard times and so did the girl. She is now happily rebuilding her life while he is still reportedly hooked on drugs. This is the reason why he cannot get acting jobs. Recently, he has been spotted stalking the actress who is scared out of her wits. It’s not clear what he wants from her but she wants nothing to do with him.

NOT COMPUTER LITERATE

WHEN the actress left her home network years ago, it was not really because of money or lack of assignments. At that time, she felt that they did not allow her to grow as a person. At that point, she did not even have an e-mail address. She didn’t know to use a computer, or how to eat during a formal dinner. She only ate the most common food, the type liked by children even if she was already an adult. She felt that people in her old management wanted her to remain ignorant so that she wouldn’t question their decisions. Since then, the actress has developed into a fearless and independent woman, no thanks to those who thought they could control her.
