FASHION PULIS: Bye, paradise


The passion they shared was dangerous. Her career was placed in danger, while he was between work. The question that hovered then was if Male Personality (MP) was serious in Female Risk-Taker (FT) to the point of jeopardizing his reputation. 

Their actions seemed headed for consequences and a possibility of saying goodbye to the industry. The you and me attitude against a network, family, friends, and fans was headed for a great sacrifice. 

MP handled the intrigue well in hindsight, just like previous showbiz couples who had set the precedent. Months of denial and hiding abroad resulted in a beautiful family of MP and FT. After many years, MP and FT were able to put their careers on track. Subsequently, the hate towards them turned into praises and the two were idolized for their setup and marriage.

Sadly, bliss was not forever. As soon as netizens noticed the absence of either MP or FT, red flags were raised. Has their paradise shut down? What could have caused a very passionate relationship to drop to coldness? 

Various reasons filled the grapevine. In-law disputes, paternity questions, jealousy, insecurities, … name it, the assumptions were endless. 

The loudest among the reasons was surprising. Stereotypically, when a relationship breaks down, a party has gone astray. In their case, one was indeed caught looking the other way and thus, trust was broken. 

Now, silence from once-noisy camps of MT and FT has enveloped the controversy and kibitzers are left to interpret the message of those social media posts.

Friends with benefits

Social media has become the field to find out if certain celebrities are into a relationship. Thus, posts of a couple on Instagram, Facebook, etc…, trigger netizens to assume something is happening. Phrases like ‘Instagram official’ are used to brand a couple often seen together on the platform. 

Of course, nothing is far better than celebrities admitting what netizens want, that is, to confirm their relationship and prove them right. However, some are doubtful of the state of relationship of Male Celebrity (MC) and Female Celebrity (FC). 

When couple photos of MC and FC littered social media, netizens immediately assumed the two are officially in a relationship. Both are hot and more importantly, single. After many months, MC and FC have yet to confirm if they are formally together. Some are unhappy with the what-you-see-is-what-you-assume attitude of the two. 

However, talks are loud that the two are into each other indeed, but only for the physical part of it. Friends with benefits can best describe their relationship if doubts are to be believed. In other words, their relationship, if it can be called, is really just for intimacy, but with a declaration by giving hints on the Internet. Would they subsequently fall into real love? Fans await. Incidentally, MC was seen in a bar hanging out with a different girl, which gave rise to question the real score between the two.
