    2. Hi anon 1:59AM yes some other stylist does that. They're also given a credit even trunks lang suot ng guy. Think. Hindi magdadala ng trunks ang stylist if hindi yun ang kailangan. Second that's why there's a stylist para my mag pullout ng damit, they not only bring one shirt then pull morethan 50+ clothes in every shoot so. Thinkm. And I also think that you're not in this kind of business kaya ganyan ka magsalita. #JustSaying

    3. This is so stupid 1:59. If you think you're good at it? Try to be in this business for you to know. You don't know how hard it is just to pullout clothes from brands and especially sa designer. Hindi mo alam pano mangligaw at kailangan makisocial so you can pullout and put trunks to a model. What business are you in?

    4. This is so funny anon 1:59. If a photographer or a team asked you to brink one gold trunks? Meron ka mailalabas? Duh?

    5. Butt hurt ang mga stylist. Nagkaroon lang naman ng tinatawag na stylist dahil tinatamad na mga designer sa shoot. Any one can be a stylist basta magpretend lang na fashionista.

    6. Para kay August 26, 2015 at 8:27 AM... Nakakatawa ka! Ang stylist ay ibang iba sa designer. Wag mo mamaliitin ang stylist dahil mahirap mag pull-out at mag style ng clothes sa iba't ibang tao. Nakakapagod ang ginagawa nila, tapos hindi sila nababayaran ng tama! Ang designer din ay iba.. sila yung gumagawa ng damit mismo. Minsan hindi rin sila nababayaran ng tama.. malaki investment nila sa damit, tapos yung mga walangyang magazines na yan, hinihiram lang nila.. for exposure din daw.. Well.. magiging stylist ka kung may capacity ka mag stay ng mahabang oras at maging pasensyoso sa pag pull-out at return ng damit. Hindi basehan ang pagiging fashionista lang.

  10. sabi na nga ba eh, medj bulok pamamalakad dyan sa *ega, palakasan, di marunong mag-survey ng mga totoong sika na icocover sa mag nila!

  11. This is why I also stopped contributing articles for that magazine. Ok lang kung 1-2 months after publication ka babayaran, that's indudtry practice (which I don't really agree with). However, this magazine takes 6 months or more to pay! And only after kulitin mo by email ng bonggang-bongga na hindi naman nila papansinin hangga't hindi ka pa magthreaten na idemanda at isocial media.

    Kaloka, ayusin nyo nga yan!

  13. And you know what they'd do when you speak out harshly against them, iba-blackball ka nila. They're a freaking fashion mafia.

  14. So true. I contributed as hair/makeup artist. Minsan gc Lang ang bay as but still takes up to a year to collect. You send them emails but they don't reply. Pero if they need you last minute ang galling nila mag text. Notorious din sila mang gutom sa shoot. Wala get budget talaga. Pakyawan rin ang work. Minsan the models complain sa so rang pagod .. More than ten lay outs... Then no food... Maski water wala.

    1. True na true yang mga dedma sila sa email followup ng bayad! Pero biglang may nalalapit silang deadline, biglang nagtetext asking me if I can do an article. Nakakaimbyerna!

      In fairness though, the times naman na nasa shoot ako to interview ung models for an article, may pagkain naman at di naman kami nagutom. Pero over sa paghihintay! Papareport ka ng tipong 10am tapos maiinterview mo ung talent alas singko na! Pweh!

      Dapat talaga matauhan na mga contributors dyan, whether writing, stylist, make-up, or kung sino pa man. Ako dedma ko na pag nagaask sila sa akin ng article. Bayaran muna nila ung article ko eight months ago no!

  15. I agree with this. Even people who work in that company that contributes with other magazine titles should be paid.. like what they do in summit and abs publishing. Pero dito, hindi. Pano pa ang contribs sa labas. ang liit liit na nga ng bayad sa kanila, it takes them MONTHS to get paid. Seriously, this company should do something about it. These people are working so hard and yet they dont get what they deserve.

    1. Ok ang Summit sa pagbayad sa freelancers, in fairness. On time naman at professional pa ang pagbigay ng cheke (finance office, may window pa). E itong isa, sa lobby, parang namamahagi ng bayad sa mga construction worker!

  16. Uiiiii para sa ekonomiya magbayad kayo! Nakakahiya ang institusyon nyoo!!!

  17. Hay naku, kaya si KC ayaw mag-cover sa mag na yan...bukod pa sa editor at large, malamang alam ni KC na manunuba sa pagbayad ng TC ang Mega na yan.

  18. This is true!!! They don't have a budget maipilit lang talaga mag-event. Nakakahiya nga the people working for them na naghahanap ng suppliers for their events tapos babaratin na nga, hindi pa babayaran agad. Kaloka.

  19. i never buy mega magazine, but one time i was in a coffee shop i decided to pick up an issue of mega. i was just browsing the pages and to my surprise, i found my food shot on one of its pages. they got it from my blog but didn't even acknowledge it. mega imbyerna! i called them out on facebook and they apologized, but still... you'd think that a "prestigious" publication such as mega would have the decency to give credit to the owners of the photos they get online!

  21. Wala talaga sila budget. Ung mga events, even the Christmas Party, ex-deal lang lahat yan no. Hilig mag-event, walang pera, ung empleyado pa mag-aabono. Tapos ung reimbursement, 10 years bago makuha, minsan nga, thank you na lang yan.
