Don't Kid Me!

Age is not but a number as far as entering the local showbiz industry is concerned. For some celebrities, a conscious effort is exerted to make them younger than their real age. The younger the age of a celebrity to the age of his/her target audience, the better it would be for his/her shot at fame. Hence, many celebrities, especially those who did not start as kids, might be older than the age they claim to be.

Sometime ago, attention was called when classmates of a celebrity claimed that a rising star then was much much older than she claimed. She had to claim to be a teen-ager, as she was part of a youth-oriented show. Denials were stopped when a yearbook resurfaced. Similarly, a seasoned actor was made younger by almost a decade to match his youthful looks when he was just starting out. The one who verified his age was a family member, who later kept quiet when he realized he might damage the career of the actor. Fortunately, these actors along with others overcame the age controversy and moved on with their careers.

Despite such incidents, the younger generation is expected to have learned from such deceitful practices. However, rumors are loud that a Young Newbie (YN) might not be a teen-ager, as claimed by her latest press releases. Allegedly, YN is around two to three years older than the age she and family would want the audience to believe.

YN was discovered in a show and immediately, she gained popularity as she appealed to the younger generation. Soon, a network signed her up and placed her among the roster of young hopefuls or talents who are dreaming of making it big in the industry. The question is if the network knows about such rumor and if YN has revealed any information about this matter.

Allegedly, prior to her entering showbiz, her family resorted to technology to delete all traces that could reveal her true age. Digital cleaning was conducted by experts hired by her family. By erasing tags, search terms, and photos, that part of her background recorded in cyberspace was gone without any trace. Well, YN comes from a very stable family, who went all out to support her venture in the entertainment industry even if that means redefining her past. In other words, her family has the means to make sure her showbiz career runs smoothly.
