Challenging Diva

The production staff of rival network sighed when they were told that Diva Actress (DA) would no longer be working with them. Although highly respected in her own right, DA has been a cause of headache for the staff. She would demand nothing but high professionalism for her co-actors, who were essentially newbies and could not match the standard she wants. Well, with the stars of the series unable to act, DA would get a bit irritated. Besides, DA can be frank and outspoken, which made some staff uneasy.

Thus, when DA was offered to do a project in Another Station (AS), this network welcomed her with open arms as well as a higher talent fee. Other than recognizing her competence as an actress, AS needs senior talents to hone their growing number of young talents, some of whom have potential to become important performers later on.

Even if AS has heard about the diva attitude of DA, that did not matter, as their Work Team (WT) would reciprocate with professionalism. After all, WT knew they had a good project in their hands and DA was perfect for her role. Nonetheless, WT witnessed the behavior of DA, which made them work on their toes whenever she has a scene.  

DA had a number of requests that WT had to give in, otherwise, their project would not be as good as it had turned out. First, DA brought her own glam team, which, of course, implied one less makeup artist from their pool. Moreover, a separate glam team would mean extra production budget. Second, to keep her figure and looks, DA was allegedly allocated a budget for her food. Although WT seemed to find these whims of DA, to their surprise, DA was so effective in her role that their project delivered more than they had expected. Besides, DA had good words and did good deeds for her young co-actors as well. However, her next project is still up in the air, as WT is still thinking if they could withstand working with her.

‘When I was younger, I used to just want to please everybody and not want to be an issue or not be considered a diva. I've just grown up and realized you have to look out for yourself and stick up for yourself, and there's nothing wrong with that.’ – Dylan O'Brien
