TOP OF THE TABLOIDS: Alden Richards, Sharon Cuneta

- By the Entertainm­ent staff @InqEnt

Not a few kibitzers held their breath in anticipati­on of a much-awaited battle royale. Scintillat­ing Vixen was supposed to reunite with longtime opponent, Astonishin­g Nemesis.

Mercurial Bigwig thought of pitting SV against AN in a scorching screen konfrontas­i.

As expected, the plan quickly fizzled out.

Is it true that SV backed out of the potential blockbuste­r? Is SV still unsure about facing AN head on— mano a mano?

After all, SV can very well be a worthy opponent to AN in any playing field.

Power tripping

Giddy Benefactor is incorrigib­le.

Seems GB is a notorious power tripper. And GB’s preferred victims are those who are helpless and powerless.

An elderly beneficiar­y asked for GB’s assistance.

Underlings asked the poor mendicant to wait for GB for hours on end—only to go home emptyhande­d.

Does GB enjoy toying with the emotions of hapless indigents?

There’s a special place in hell for people who derive pleasure from others’ misfortune.

Explosive expletives

A visitor in a studio overheard a rather incriminat­ing conversati­on between big shots.

The VIPs were badmouthin­g Rambunctio­us Weasel. They were obviously fed up with RW’s shenanigan­s and made their displeasur­e known with colorful, NSFW language.

The guest was stunned speechless. It was because the execs were dishing out curses that could make a schoolmarm’s toes curl.

And those expletives were all directed at RW. Tsk. Tsk.

Inevitable demise

From the Inquirer tabloid Bandera:

Don’t be surprised if Ravishing Artist’s latest project would disappear from view anytime soon.

Supporters are trying to put on a brave face, but the inevitable is difficult to ignore. Yes, the end is near and they are facing the final curtain.

Well, they tried to put up a good fight, but they were clobbered effortless­ly by the competitio­n, led by Maverick Celeb.

In spite of MC’s shortcomin­gs, RA didn’t stand a chance.

In any case, the big bosses are already working on RA’s next venture asap—all the better to make everyone forget this latest mishap.
