Confessions of a Real-Life Gossip Girl

One of my daily routines is checking out Brian Gorrell's website for new posts. Last night, I read about Tim Yap's so-called charity event side by side KC Concepcion that happened the day after Easter. Brian even posted my pictures. The post ended up warning KC to stay away from Tim and the GG (gucci gang)--a group Bx accuses of snorting coke.

Then, I browsed thru the comment section and OMG--! One comment says that this certain reader saw KC in a party snorting coke like a pro!

Now that's a comment I found juicier than the blog entry itself. Phenomenal!

Being a self-confessed celebrity gossip girl, I quench my thirst for input daily by going to tabloid (ABANTE, TALIBA, PHILSTAR) and et (PEP, YEHEY) sites. Maybe that's the basic reason I got curious about Bx's blogspot--the scandal that involves Filipino celebs. I also joined yahoogroups that send me daily input of showbiz and even political personalities. The dirtier-darker-juicier, the better!

Some totally shocked me, especially if the "blind item" involves a personality that I truly like. Then, I learned to shrug them off me, thinking that these celebs won't even give a damn about me. Hehe! So now, I even found the stories amusing!

Being in the gossip "business" for quite a long time now, I also learned that many writers and sources of these juicy items just either fabricate or semi-fabricate them. Total fabrication is a total make-up story. 100% Lie. Semi-fabrication is a story that was spiced up to make it incredibly marketable to gossipmongers like me. So one should learn how to discern. Naks! Such a deep word for a very shallow matter.

Wonder why I waste my time on petty things like these? Well, it is a vice that I can't get away from. Haha! Just like a cigarette to smokers, liquors for alcoholics, sex for SA's, casinos for chronic gamblers... This is my addiction! I like to be updated because I find the lives of these celebs fascinating. The price of being at the top (?)... Makes me wonder if I would really like to be where they are. Well, I guess NOT! I like where I am better. An spectator... A loser who feeds on the latest explosive scandal to erupt!

i'm not confirming that po. i'm still on the discerning part of that issue. but hope to find that it's not true because though i'm in denial, i know that i'm a hard-core true-blooded sharonian. so goodluck to my quest for truth regarding this rumor.
