FASHION PULIS: Mischievous boys

Published Aug 28, 2026 07:43 pm

Long before the Mischievous Boys (MB) achieved fame in the entertainment industry, they often got into adventures that could be dismissed as “boys being boys.” Although the two came from not-poor families, they were talented. That talent eventually paved their way into the entertainment business.

When MB started doing shows locally and overseas, people began noticing them, and the two started to capitalize on their newfound fame. They realized their charm opened doors.

One time, MB decided to check out the nightlife. The women got cozy with them, and MB decided to return the attention.

MB invited a couple of Starstruck Entertainers (SE) out. The problem was that SE were under strict management and were not allowed to leave the dorm once curfew hit. However, SE were convinced and determined to see MB. Thus, a plan was conceived for SE to meet up with the boys.

With the assistance of their dormmates, SE escaped and met with MB. The group went around and had a grand time enjoying themselves.

When SE returned to their dorm, the dormmates pressed them for the story of their night. MB had left a number, as they probably wanted more time. Unfortunately, the dormmates got hold of the number. They subsequently bombarded the given number.

SE never received any more response from MB and assumed the boys ignored all calls and messages from unknown numbers.

Fast forward to decades later. MB are now joyfully married. If MB did the adventure today, their wives would definitely throw them out of their homes.

“The opportunity for doing mischief is found a hundred times a day, and of doing good once in a year.” —Voltaire

Disguising for the future

Often, pretty faces are dismissed as having more beauty than brains. However, these days, many have proven that beauty is just a stepping-stone to reaching their dreams. Several personalities have brought honor to the country with both beauty and brains.

Take the case of Smart Beauty (SB). SB was open about her humble beginnings. Unlike other celebrities, SB did not conceal that she preferred to pursue education over the entertainment industry. She was confident she had more to give than simply showing off her body. Moreover, she had already fulfilled her goal of giving her family a home, and this time was right for herself.

To prepare for her long journey, SB needed to be smart, as her dream was fulfilling but expensive. SB thought of practical means to ease the cost. Thus, she did the unthinkable given her stature.

Instead of waiting for gifts or sponsors, she hid behind a mask and started a quest for what she needed. Cleverly hiding her identity, she made her way into town and luckily found what she needed for her dream.

Amid dusty pages, SB bought the books she coveted, saving her thousands. SB humbly walked the path to fulfill what she longed for. Cheers to sleepless nights studying those books.

“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.” —Pele
