I am amused. Showbiz is abuzz that Jennyln Mercado of GMA 7 is missing. We saw her in Fish and Co Shangrila over lunch yesterday as I mentioned earlier. Aha, now they’re saying she has a new telenovela coming, the remake of the Koreanovela “Stairway to Heaven”. Media hype to drum up interest on the girl and the telenovela. What a way of doing things. Ano ba yan? How bizarre. How silly. GMA, I’m disappointed.
And even Sunshine Dizon is joining the fray, quoting a rumor about how Jennyln just drove off the last time they saw her. She clarified that she’s merely quoting someone and isn’t sure. Corny. Hay showbiz.
That’s why I admire those movie stars who refuse to use any ruse for the sake of publicity. How must Jennyln feel? Is she laughing or disgusted? I am close to feeling the latter myself.
