An overused but still effective formula in launching the career of a newbie is to team him/her up with another performer. However, some networks have gambled into pairing off a more popular talent with a newbie in hopes that the popularity of the former will rub off on the latter. In the case of this couple, rail-thin actress (RA) and hotshot performer (HP), the network is hoping that their gamble can pay off. As a love team, they do have the screaming fans, but both have yet to appear together in a movie that can test their box-office draw.
While there are denials that they are a couple, RA and HP are often spotted together in public and are behaving as if they are. The other night, an FP reader spotted RA and HP having dinner at a steakhouse near their network. The good thing about this date is that RA was seen eating, which could quash rumors about her having an eating disorder. Although they were seated next to each other in the darker area of the restaurant, they were with a chaperone.
After RA and HP were done with dinner, as they were approaching the door, the restaurant staff asked if they could have a picture with RA, to which she willingly obliged. HP and the chaperone were left standing near the door. A few seconds passed, no one bothered to invite HP to join in the picture taking. It was as if no one noticed him. Talk about being trapped in an awkward situation. HP’s face showed a lot of discomfort that the crew forgot that he, too, was a “star."
Can RA's magic do wonders for HP? One bad move might just make him fade away without even establishing a strong name and lasting presence in the business. Of course, HP could learn a thing or two from RA about being pleasant and amiable. But unfortunately, his pretty face just doesn't gel with the negative publicities that have been hounding him lately.
Can you identify who RA and HP are? Please abide by the RULES in writing comments if you want them to be posted. Initials and comments that are too explicit will not be accepted.
