Behind that Photoshoot

A great achievement for any magazine is to have a memorable cover. A cover can boost or break the sales of a magazine. Some people will buy a magazine based on the cover but will get disappointed once they read what's inside the cover article. However, this particular magazine often walks its talk. Usually, the articles that go with the cover are extensive and well-written. So, when the magazine released its latest cover with the young stars of a particular talent management, people got interested and excited. Although these stars work in the same network, their schedules are difficult to synchronize to put them together in one place.

As expected, to gather big stars for work can lead to big attitudes. The photo shoot for this cover was no exception. First, hunk actor (HA1) was so in a hurry to finish the shoot reasoning out that he had prior commitments for the day. But it could also be more valid to think that he could have been uncomfortable with the presence of his two ex's around. Since this was his management’s photoshoot, the rumoured (ex?) partner was not present even though she can beat the popularity of all the stars combined on the cover.

Second, one of the actresses (OA) stayed in her corner and refused to mingle with the rest. Her partner in a love team was present in the shoot, but stories have it that OA and her TV partner are merely polite towards each other. Was OA avoiding any interaction with the former girlfriend (FG) of an actor? Yes, the same actor is the one OA allegedly had a fling with when they did a movie. Did blind items not give clues that FG caught OA and the actor in their rendezvous?

Third, another actress (AA) demanded another dress from the stylist because she felt the other actresses were wearing outfits that were more fab and stylish. To her disappointment, she was told that their outfits were already set. Did AA feel awkward because her ex and his current girlfriend (CG) were around? One look at the cover and indeed, AA was right in showing her insecurity over her assigned outfit. Well, she should have also questioned how she was positioned in the shoot.

Conspicuously absent in the cover was another hunk actor (HA2), who was once the favorite of the network. Does his absence mean he is no longer considered a big star of the network? Is this why he no longer appears in its primetime slot? A quick research shows that HA2's career is still under this management.

Nonetheless, a final look at the result of the beautiful cover shoot belies all the intrigues that happened before it. You think so, too?
