Fried chicken junkie
MANILA, Philippines - Should well-meaning friends intervene now?
Singer-Actress is packing in the pounds of late because of addiction to a fast-food chain?s finger-lickin?-good entrées.
A spy claims SA can finish eight pieces of fried chicken in one sitting.
Is she being groomed as the resto?s new endorser? Or is it because her new project requires her to look dumpy?
Nope, says our source, she simply loves dipping the crispy skin in the rich gravy.
Hunky actor up for grabs
Rumor has it that Hunky Actor could no longer resist enlisting in the flesh trade.
He reportedly charges P30,000 per gig. A dissatisfied customer complains that HA is a lazy performer, though. He is reportedly in it only to subsidize his addiction? not that kind.
He?s said to be addicted to expensive gizmos.
High-rolling hunk
It?s no longer a secret in Showtown: Dramatic Hunk is addicted to gambling.
From saklaan tables, he?s gone high-tech and is often seen in an online casino in QC.
DH reportedly caused a commotion there recently, quarrelling with other patrons, ?cranky because he kept losing.?
Last time he was spotted in the joint, he was ?on a winning streak,? in a good mood.
Tale of two hosts
Although Ryan Agoncillo lost the hosting job on ?Pinoy Dream Academy? to Billy Crawford due to schedule conflicts, he remained loyal to ABS-CBN, which is now offering him the komiks soap ?Pieta,? as well as a planned sitcom with Judy Ann Santos and Ai-Ai de las Alas.
If the Kapamilya network lands the world-famous franchise, Ryan is supposedly a shoo-in as host of ?Fear Factor.?
In contrast, Billy?s loyalty has been questioned. He was purportedly set to host a dance show on GMA 7 when he suddenly jumped to rival network ABS-CBN. A source said Billy?s move caught mentor German Moreno by surprise: ?He was the last to know.?
