Discouraging Decision

Patience and loyalty paid off for Matinee Idol (MI). Instead of moving from one network to another when his projects were dwindling, MI reinvented himself. He honed his skills in directing, and he started shaping his body. The shows he directed for his network turned out to be successful. However, MI was better seen in front of the cameras. Soon, his physique drew much attention locally and internationally. His international recognition added to his stock, and his network entrusted him with exciting projects.

MI has quite a successful career that he can cross networks once in a while. He also has a number of non-showbiz commitments that have endeared him to various sectors of the society. Despite his fame and schedule, he squeezed in a college degree.

MI found his match in feisty actress (FA). In contrast to the cool and well-mannered personality of MI, FA proved to be the opposite behind the cameras. What the public saw was how FA became overprotective of MI as she got in various entanglements with possible reel partners for MI. Quickly, FA had silent feuds with several female talents in the station. For now, everything seemed to be fine and quiet.

Now, a story is going around as to how MI backed out of a live interview with one of these female talents (FT). MI was going around the network’s shows to promote his new project. The green light was given for MI’s live guesting. This segment excited the production, as never had both faced each other after that controversy between FA and FT. Alas, like any production nightmare, the staff was informed that another host would interview MI at the last minute.

The question is why MI made the last minute decision. Was MI avoiding the awkward situation as FT and FA have an unresolved feud despite certain reconciliation attempts? Did MI prefer another host out of respect for FA? Consequently, did fear take over MI as FA might just release a wrathful reaction had the interview happened?

I firmly believe that respect is a lot more important, and a lot greater, than popularity. -Julius Erving
