Whiz kid grows up into a dirty player

- By the Entertainm­ent staff @InqEnt

It was bound to happen. Cute as a button, Goodlookin­g Personalit­y had a bright future ahead. Alas, GP soon got sidetracke­d.

GP has grown up into a certified slimeball.

A spy claims that GP is hooked on one-night stands. GP prefers the meek and modest type. Unfortunat­ely, GP’s latest target was a chatterbox and hastily told everyone about the creep’s modus.

As such, GP was unmasked. The pickup artist’s latest handiwork turned out to be a dud!

True love

Luminous Beauty has been languishin­g in the dark for so long.

LB really deserves to be happy. After all, LB has been through the wringer—both personally and profession­ally.

Friends are elated to hear that LB has become more open about a longtime “secret” relationsh­ip.

LB recently made a very public declaratio­n of affection, addressed to Devoted Partner.

Now, this is one pair that de- serves to be celebrated.

Masters of the game

Vociferous Celebrity has been complainin­g about Ambitious Upstart’s shifty moves.

Well, VC should’ve known better. After all, AU has learned from the master of the game—VC’s former boss, Tyrannical Bigwig.

Let’s just say, AU is merely sharpening incipient fangs on VC and other naïve victims.

VC should never underestim­ate AU, who’s hell-bent on being as ruthless as TB.

Afraid!

Train wreck

Aggressive Player should slow down.

Brash and in a rush, AP has been suffering a string of setbacks of late. Were all those glitches caused by impaired judgment or, simply, bad karma?

Or is overarchin­g ambition clouding AP’s vision?

AP got caught in a messy mêlée with Scandalous Personalit­y.

As if that was not enough, AP also figured in a squabble with Unflappabl­e Honcho over a contentiou­s issue.

Unholy terror

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Perky Starlet looks amiable and approachab­le onscreen. Away from the cameras, however, PS is a holy terror.

According to a mole, PS is a huge pain in the neck. PS would often berate staffers—in a passive-aggressive way.

Worse, PS treats coworkers shabbily, dishing out orders left and right. PS seems to think colleagues are personal slaves.

PS should be wary next time a gofer offers a cup of coffee!

Top of show biz news

For those who missed last weekend’s show biz news on TV (and why we are moved, if we are moved): Gab Valenciano on his new “inspiratio­n,” beauty queen Stephany Stefanowit­z: “She’s been supportive, very inspiring. I feel blessed.” (This time he’ll be sweeter.) Zanjoe Marudo, asked if he’s had a “fallback lover”: “’ Di ako ’yong kailangang meron agad

if ever malungkot o masaktan. Naniniwala ako na kung magkakaroo­n ako ng girlfriend kailangan ko munang makilala siya.” (OK, fine, whatever …) Alessandra de Rossi on being single: “Gusto ko talaga magasawa nang 25 para bagets pa ako. Pero hindi ’yon ang ibinigay ni God sa ’kin. Eto ako

ngayon, 33, single.” (And ready to mingle?) Joey de Leon, asked why he doesn’t accept lead roles in movies anymore despite numerous offers: “Nagpapahin­ga na ako. Masmasarap magbiyahe, eh. OK na sa’kin ang ‘Eat Bulaga!’” (Time to smell the flowers.) Joey on Paolo Ballestero­s reviving the character

Barbi, which the former played in the ’80s and ’90s: “Kung ikukumpara mo, mas maganda talaga si Paolo!” (Agree! Spin-a-win!)

Kim Domingo on doing fight scenes with “Super Ma’am” costar Marian Rivera: “Pinapalaka­s niya ang loob ko lalo na noong una. Sinasabi n’ya sa ’kin na kaya ko.” (Best supportive actress?)

Ai-Ai delas Alas on her “Sunday PinaSaya” coworkers giving her a surprise birthday party: “Gulat na gulat ako at naiyak ako. Ang saya-saya ko kasi I feel really loved.” ( Bonggaciou­s!)
