  • Semi-retired Actress (SA) is enticing people to join an online gaming site.
Semi-retired Actress (SA) is not too eager to fully leave showbiz and devote 100% of her time to family. It seems she can't do without the glamorous life.
SA was in demand years ago. She was popular in both traditional and non-traditional media. SA appealed to the male demographic, cutting across ages. Most importantly, unlike her contemporaries, she did not go through the love team route. It should be said, however, that SA had her share of controversies as her career progressed.
After making a name and gaining followers, SA disappeared from the limelight. Her disappearance was automatically linked to pregnancy rumors. True enough, SA had decided to see what married life had to offer.

Years passed and SA finally decided to return to show business. Soon, she got her second chance.
These days, SA has been appearing in big productions but is often cast as mom to younger stars.
With sustained mass appeal came endorsements via social media. One of these requires her to entice participants to join an online gaming site. Sadly, most of those eager to try their luck are OFWs.
Some are bothered about this as SA has strong convincing power. 
Despite knowing that the chances of them losing are higher than that of them winning, participants continue to risk.
The question is, why is SA seemingly fine being an instrument to something that could ruin innocent lives?

Temper, temper
Controversial Singer (CS) became popular hanging around with a Very Popular (VP) celebrity. Though this has resulted in seeming awkwardness, VP was mum on the true status of their relationship.
Even CS's family has distanced themselves from both. Fans felt the presence of VP drove a wedge in the family. However, out of respect, they kept quiet.
A story emerged sometime ago indicating the worth of VP to CS.
Given the popularity of VP, her public presence mesmerized onlookers. CS capitalized on that.
One time security personnel of the building where they resided, called the attention of CS. Instead of a calm reaction, CS screamed back and emphasized he was with VP.
Neighbors observed that whenever CS had tantrums in their area for whatever reason and subsequently be reminded by security, he would justify his antics by invoking his association with VP.
Kindhearted as VP is, many believe she is simply tolerating the outbursts of CS. She never spoke ill of CS and the truth of their relationship would never be defined.
