Every person has a secret that he/she knows can lead to potential consequences in the future. For people who have made a living based on an image, any secret that can affect such image is usually denied or referred to as fiction written by detractors. However, as time moves and evidence surfaces, the secret has to be admitted publicly. Depending on circumstances and the reputation of the person, the public can be receptive and forgiving, or express disappointment.

In showbiz, fans have been accustomed to their idols hiding secrets that can ruin their intended reputation. These so-called secrets revolve around drug addiction, drinking to the brink, womanizing, and being a parent during teen years. While society has been trying to open up to accepting one’s true sexual preference, coming out of the closet will always be perceived as the end of the career of any talent in local showbiz.

Most networks believe that the local audience has a difficult time in separating the onscreen and offcam image of actors. Therefore, any item concerning the sexuality of their talent is immediately suppressed by publicity refuting such. For instance, whenever someone is doubted as gay, expect that the next item about him will be about his new girlfriend. This action will save the career of the actor for the meantime.

Now, what happens if a budding actor reveals the truth about his preference to the network? Will that guarantee the support from his network? In the case of Cutie Hunk (CH), he seems to be quite visible these days via supporting roles in several flagship projects of his network. Although he might not be as good looking as some matinee idols, he makes up for this lack with his bubbliness and talent. Besides, he has an appeal that makes him pleasant to watch onscreen. Unlike others who achieved fame via reality shows, CH has a more secure position. He was launched as part of the steady talent pool of the network, which could also explain why he has many projects.

Typical of showbiz talents, CH has his own secret that he probably divulged under pressure. During an interview with Network Executive (NE), CH revealed something about himself that could either show him out of the door or make him interesting for some powerful predators. NE asked CH his preference under the rationale that in case an issue crops up, the network would know how to defend him. Thinking he could trust NE, CH said that he swings both ways, and admitted his bisexuality. NE did not flinch and moved on to the next unrelated question. Is this revelation a good move on the part of CH? Being new in the business, CH can only trust so few. Hopefully, the few will not use the information to take advantage of CH.
