Top of the tabloids

Misery loves company, in - deed. Perhaps Notorious Personalit­y didn’t want to be the only one with an unhappy, lonely Christmas.

NP purportedl­y introduced Longtime Pal to Wanton Seductress.

Weak-willed LP swiftly fell for WS’ wily ways.

LP’s family life was almost destroyed when Elegant Spouse uncovered the indiscreti­on.

Luckily, LP and ES patched up their difference­s and reconciled—rebuilding their broken home in time for the season of love and forgivenes­s. WS’ scheme failed, big time. Is it back to the drawing board for NP then?

Real culprit

Now it can be told. The true reason behind the breakup of a supposedly ideal couple would’ve been scandalous.

Loquacious Beau was already preparing to propose to Scintillat­ing Sweetie.

One fine day, someone sent LB an incriminat­ing photo of SS emerging from a hotel room with Past Lover.

LB went berserk and promptly dumped SS.

Everyone blames LB for the split up. But it turned out SS’ two-timing was the real culprit.

Tongue twister

Gorgeous Star yearns of striking gold abroad.

GS is quite hardworkin­g—pounding the streets in pursuit of the big dream.

Alas, GS’ efforts were thwarted by a series of road blocks.

Apart from racism, GS had to contend with all sorts of biases and difficulti­es in the global arena.

Foreign Insider checked with Local Counterpar­t aboutGS’ background. FI had doubts that GS’ résumé was embellishe­d.

Worse, FI claims that GS needs to work with a good dialect coach who can correct a rather faulty speaking voice and accent.

Certified jerk

Hunky Cutie has caused nothing but trouble to his exes.

HC would often fool around, hooking up with other women, right under his girlfriend­s’ noses.

HC also raided one sweetheart’s bank account, gambling away millions. The coup de grace? When the crap hit the fan, HC ran away with furniture from a former lover’s pad, too.

The guy is a certified jerk.

Busted beau

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Handsome Charmer’s luck ran out quickly.

HC was forced to part ways with latest girlfriend, whose affluent parents loathe him rather passionate­ly.

According to a mole, the girl’s relatives have long suspected that HC is a gold-digger.

The poor heiress’ concerned parents hired a private investigat­or who then confirmed their worst fears.

They learned about HC’s previous sweetheart, Stunning Celebrity, who was also a victim of the guy’s user-friendly ways.

Busted!
