00:00Before I forget, gossip is also studied by learned people.

00:07They also use it, just like what I said about the art of war,

00:10that to confuse the enemy, you spread untrue stories.

00:16Let's go to show business.

00:17For example, historically speaking, in Hollywood,

00:20you need to have a title.

00:23The most beautiful woman in the world was Elizabeth Taylor.

00:27In those times, we're already experiencing that.

00:30Elvis Presley of the Philippines, etc.

00:33The handlers of one of the most beautiful movie stars in Hollywood,

00:38I'm thinking of Lana Turner.

00:40There!

00:42Lana Turner's time, just google Lana Turner.

00:45She was accompanied by great artists.

00:50Her handlers were thinking,

00:51how can we create her own image, Lana Turner?

00:58Do you know what her handlers did?

01:00They sent, for example, they contacted Variety.

01:04This is just an example.

01:05We have a telegram here.

01:06We got this from the Fashion Designers Association of America,

01:11which was not real.

01:13It didn't exist.

01:15What is the content?

01:16But this is a true story, in packaging.

01:19Okay?

01:20And the content of the telegram is,

01:22Dear Vice Chair Buboy Villar,

01:26for example, you're Lana Turner's manager.

01:28We are declaring Lana Turner as the most fashionable woman in Hollywood.

01:34So that became her brand.

01:36Okay.

01:36And where did that come from?

01:38Yes, from an untrue story.

01:40Mmm.

01:41You know what I'm saying?

01:42Yes, yes.

01:42So the debate there, was a crime committed?

01:46What kind of gossip was that

01:48Lana Turner's package became the most fashionable?

01:53I didn't get hurt.

01:55Do you understand?

01:56Yes, yes, I get it.

01:57There's also something that comes from the truth.

01:59Let's emphasize the story of this girl,

02:02because she's from the province,

02:06this is her life,

02:08and many more.

02:10Because this will be necessary

02:12to support, to strengthen the image.

02:15Mmm.

02:16Is that a crime?

02:17No, no.

02:17That's what I'm trying to say.

02:19Right?

02:19These are the opportunities that, technically,

02:22gossip can be used in a good way.

02:27Mmm.

02:28In a good way, insofar as the business of show is concerned.

02:33Mmm.

02:34But my point is,

02:35when you get to the point where you're hurting someone,

02:40you're hurting someone,

02:43you're ruining someone's life,

02:46Yes.

02:47Yes.

02:47you're not conscious of what's real and what's not,

02:50what's imagined and what's real.

02:53That's painful.

02:54Yes.

02:55That's when it becomes not good.

02:56It's not good.
