What the hell TV5 big boss Manny V. Pangilinan was thinking???

There is a breaking news on the net today that Sharon Cuneta managed to bag a 1B-peso deal with TV5! The deal supposedly includes a talk show ala-Oprah. Whatever that deal includes I don’t think Sharon is still worth that much money. Consider the ratings of her recent TV shows in ABS-CBN. Can we all say flop queen?!? Even the interesting Pinoy edition of The Biggest Loser didn’t rate that much because people were talking about how she hosted the show and she was the one who didn’t even lose weight!

And for TV5 to give her that much for a contract with them? I don’t think Sharon is even worth 50M pesos anymore! Her popularity has waned over the past couple of years. She even is no longer the endorsement queen as Kris Aquino is apparently more credible than her. And John Lloyd Cruz for that matter.

Whether the scoop by Ricky Lo is true or false, the fact remains that Sharon Cuneta is no longer the megastar that she was. Her star is no longer as shiny as it used to and let’s face it, she’s LAOS na!

Vicki Belo, renowned cosmetic surgeon here in the Philippines, was interviewed at Showbiz Central yesterday and she apparently said something insulting about Boy Abunda, talk show host, talent manager and the image model of the Belo Medical Group‘s main competitor, Calayan Surgicenter, to this effect…

If you want to look like Boy Abunda, go to Calayan. If you want to look like Dingdong Dantes and Piolo Pascual, go to Belo.

Ouch!

Vicki Belo said that it was just a joke! But in tonight’s Showbiz News Ngayon episode, Boy Abunda was asked by Kris Aquino about that statement and he emotionally reacted to it. He was hurt, according to him and his mom even called him up asking if he did something wrong to Vicki Belo that’s why she’s making him a laughingstock. He tearfully stated that he never did anything wrong to Vicki Belo so he doesn’t know where this is coming from.

Tsk tsk tsk

Another word war coming up!
