To promote the network and its shows overseas, the management launched a series of shows abroad. The network sent some of its big name stars, who were mostly former talents of the other network, to attract more viewers to patronize their shows. One of the channel’s shows is known for attempting to develop the hosting talents of non-showbiz personalities. Being a good friend of her family, non-showbiz host (NSH) was asked to join the show of controversial host (CH). Hosting is far from the background of NSH but her presence in the show adds more recall to the family name. Since she’s already in media, certain expectations are demanded from NSH. Her actions are already being noticed. NSH needs to adjust so she can be an endearing personality, which will translate to plus points for her family.

Take the case of the arrival of NSH and other network personalities at the airport. People noticed that very few bothered to give attention to NSH. Hence, her bodyguards had an easy time. The other talents were fussed upon by the crowd, which was in contrast to how the crowd reacted to NSH. When some press people approached her for an interview, NSH avoided them. The press said that they won’t bother with her if she does not want to talk and that they did not find NSH an interesting subject. Someone tried to make the customary kissing on the cheek of NSH. As expected, she did her best to move away. Onlookers felt a bit slighted at the attitude of NSH.

In contrast, CH was his usual flamboyant self with the crowd, and used his charm to win them over. Despite his bodyguards, he allowed the fans to come nearer to him. Then, he asked the crowd if they had eaten. Then, CH gave away some money before he checked-in for their flight. Will CH be able to rub some of his charisma to make NSH more endearing to the audience? Let's wait and see.
