Excitement has turned to anxiety and worry for Serious Veteran (SV), who is unhappy with the outcome of the film she recently shot and is demanding a re-release.
After all, this is SV’s latest collaboration with long-time Onscreen Partner (OP). SV hasn’t been visible since the pandemic lockdowns, so this would have been the perfect vehicle for her re-entry into show biz, as well as a way for her to introduce herself to a younger audience.
Those close to SV blame the producers’ decision to hire a young, relatively inexperienced director to do the job. Could this be because SV and OP demanded such high fees that the producer could no longer afford the services of a more seasoned or experienced production group? Here’s an even more relevant question: will they manage to save the film?
TOP OF THE TABLOIDS
The show biz news of the week in the tabloids (and why we are moved, if we are moved):
• Bea Alonzo nagmukha raw alalay sa birthday ni Kyline Alcantara: ‘Naawa kasi ako kaya kinuha ko na ‘yung cake’ (Let Bea eat cake, quickly!)
• Marco Gumabao always talked about frontal nudity, never frontal nudity with Cristine Reyes: “Yes, no! Que magagalit na! Hindi, damn it! » (So, dati pala pwede?)
• Kiko Matos ‘nagdiwang’ on social accounts natsuging ni Rendon Labador: Panalo ang Pilipinas ngayon! But it’s not his ‘yo! (That’s what we call “motivational!)
• Rendon Labador naka-lock na ang X account, Instagram page nanganganib na rin (When it rains, it rains.)
• Hirit ni Vice Ganda matapos tawaging bastos at abusado ni Juan Ponce Enrile: “Sa mga lolong hindi ako masyadong like, I still love you po” (How to combat hatred with love.)
• Angelica Panganiban can kiss her malaking aubergine mataba from Australia: “I’m delighted with talagang makatuluyan, Australian! (It’s funny and very light if Angge, right?)
Aiko Melendez — CONTRIBUTED Photo
• Aiko Melendez started talking about her actress with my-attitude with the initials JP (Is this based on personal experience or just a mother’s instinct kicking in?)
• Francine Diaz neck-squeezes the label of “relationship” between Nila and Seth: “Huwag po nating madaliin, hayaan po nating ang tadhana ang gumawa” (Tadhana is still not in the mood to put a label on the “relationship” proximity” of FranSeth.)
• Jillian Ward spoke about magpaligaw and magkadyowa; doing a collaboration with the Vice Ganda project (Now that the Vice show is on GTV, is it safe to say it’s a different project?)
• Ben&Ben sa mga fans: ‘Salamat sa pagkapit kahit na may mga pagsubok… ang dami naming natututunan sa inyo’ (It’s always a double meaning thing.)
• Julia Montes shares Alden Richards’ secrets: “Alam ko na po kung bakit n’yo siya iniidolo, talaga namang deserving” (So, Bakit nga?)
