Savvy for Money?

Talented Star TS had an out-of-town show recently which was hugely successful. She was in high spirits during the concert and was mobbed by her over-eager fans. The Head of the City HC learned about the show and he instructed The Producer TP to invite TS in the city's office. After the show and before heading back to Manila, TP immediately discussed the courtesy call to HC's office. TS' camp asked if TS would be paid extra for the requested appearance. When told that there would be no additional fees, they became disinterested and made excuses that TS has bruises on her body that resulted from the mobbing of the fans during the show, and therefore would not be "nice" to do a courtesy call.

TP knew that it was just an alibi, he was pissed and slighted that HC's invitation was turned down. He fumed and threatened that if TS would not appear in HC's office, she would be banned and would no longer be allowed to perform in the province. The threat seemed real and thus TS group was forced to comply.

When they finally appeared at the office of HC, TS and her group were warmly welcomed. However, TP and his team noticed something very obvious - there were no visible marks on TS to justify the previous excuse. Apparently, it was just a bluff to avoid the invitation after learning that there would be no payment involved. Big stars should earn not always be money-motivated for every little act requested of hem. Déclassée.
