Losers, gainers

Kris Aquino lost several pounds due to a personal crisis but gained the love – “I feel he loves me” – of Mel Sarmiento, her fiancé, who has never looked more lovestruck. His effect on Kris has been immediately palpable. There’s now a sense of calm around her, the nervous energy – the urge to “share” -- seemingly dissipated.
Sharon Cuneta underwent a breast reduction procedure in the US and came back glowing, blooming with the dew of youth despite a personal political crisis. Her husband and her uncle are in a cutthroat competition to be the next vice president of the Philippines. Whom to support 100 percent?
Angel Locsin is the picture of success and happiness after shedding unwanted pounds. There’s a spring in her step, every movement marked by grace. Word is that a second, more romantic wedding ceremony is in the works – a beautiful motivation for Mrs. Neil Arce to appear as a vision of loveliness in white lace and tulle.
As personal trainers and coaches will affirm, losing the first pound is always the most difficult. It’s not easy to be a loser, not unless one is equipped with tons of willpower, discipline, determination. Congratulations, ladies, and keep it down!
How much out-of-pocket money did Manny Pacquiao lose so willingly to adoring fans during a meet-and-greet out of town? “Inggit lang sila” (they’re just envious), he said of critics carping about a candidate spewing out cash like a money machine. Anyway, he didn’t give away more than what it would cost Jinkee to buy an LV or Chanel.
All it took to make Korean actor Kim Seon-ho a major loser was one message from his ex complaining that he had forced her to get an abortion. For weeks, Kim’s Hometown Cha Cha Cha series was No. 1 in Korea and Netflix, but he has since lost at least three major projects already in the pipeline plus numerous ad contracts and endorsements. Over here, the unending saga of LJ Reyes and Paolo Contis, and now Kylie Padilla and Aljur Abrenica involve not only the ex-lovers but friends and family on both sides, bashers, defenders, gossipmongers, strangers and pretenders – idlers demanding to be intimately involved in what is none of their business. Get lost, will you?
