Fame changes people — some for the better, others… not so much. While many stars remain grounded despite success, there are those who, according to fans and insiders, allegedly developed diva attitudes, became hard to work with, or simply forgot where they came from.

Here are 5 Filipino celebrities who reportedly changed after rising to stardom:


1. XIAN LIM – From Sweetheart to “Too Good to Talk”?

Once known as the charming and approachable leading man, some crew members claim that Xian became distant and difficult to approach after landing lead roles.

“He used to smile and greet everyone. Now he barely says hi,” said a former production assistant.


2. AJ RAVAL – Viral Fame, But Full of Attitude?

After going viral and starring in a string of sexy films, AJ allegedly started acting like a superstar on set—turning down fan interactions, arriving late to shoots, and clashing with directors.

“She doesn’t take instructions well anymore. Like she already knows everything,” a crew insider revealed.


3. ANDREA BRILLANTES – From Baby Girl to “Prima Donna”?

Once adored as a child star, Andrea reportedly started showing signs of diva behavior—especially off-camera. Some co-workers noted that she can be cold or moody when she’s not in the mood.

“If she doesn’t like you, you’ll feel it instantly,” said a stylist from a past shoot.


4. JERICHO ROSALES – Friendly On-Cam, Cold Off-Cam?

Jericho, known for his legendary status in Philippine showbiz, has been rumored to be less friendly in person—especially with the press and fans.

“He’s all smiles in front of cameras, but off-cam? He walks away without saying a word,” one reporter shared.


5. KYLIE PADILLA – Empowered or Entitled?

Following her high-profile breakup with Aljur Abrenica and a surge in popularity, Kylie is said to have become more temperamental and selective with whom she deals with on set.

“It’s like she thinks only her pain matters,” a teleserye crew member shared.


🤔 Real Talk: Is It Fame—or Just the Real Them?

While some argue it’s natural for stars to change as they climb the ladder, many believe true character is revealed in success. Fame is fleeting — but humility lasts.

“It’s okay to rise — just don’t forget the people who helped you up.
