- Bashers attack Regine Velasquez as she turns into a Kapamilya.
- They accused that Regine is only after the money and has no conscience.
- Arnell Ignacio, a friend of Regine’s, defended the singer from bashers.
Even though the majority is in favor of Regine Velasquez becoming a Kapamilya, there are a few fans who suddenly turned into bashers.
According to netizens, Regine has no conscience leaving GMA just like that after 20 years of service. They also commented that the Kapuso network was the one who molded her career.
They also claimed that Regine only transferred to ABS-CBN for money.
Arnell Ignacio, Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) Deputy Executive Director, stood his ground to defend the Asia’s Songbird from bashers.
On his Facebook post, he remarked that GMA cannot cage a great talent such as Regine.
“Yung mga bumabatikos kay Regine na ang sasakit ng sinasabi pero walang nalalaman sa kalakaran ng entertainment, e, ang sasarap niyong pagsasampalin.
“Saan mo ba lalagay si Regine sa programa ng 7 sige nga? Saan mo siya pakakantahin na programa ng 7?
“Ano naman yung comment ng ‘paiyak-iyak pa, I see the peso sign? Sarap mo dagukan. Ano ba sa tingin niyo si Regine, welfare officer?
“Trabaho niya kumanta at may bayad yun natural.
“Kung malaki ibabayad sa kanya ano nakakapagtaka run. E, si Regine Velasquez yan.”
Ignacio also added that whatever the amount ABS-CBN offered Regine, she deserved it after her many years of hard work and dedication in the industry.
“Regine is a friend of mine way back na Chona Velasquez pa yan at sinisingit singit lang namin sa sing-along sa BBs kapag wala na kaming joke.
“This woman went through all the tests of an entertainer and she passed all these with exemplary grades with even more to give.
“Sa inyo na walang alam be, thankful that we have Regine Velasquez. Listen to her singing enjoy it and shut up.”
Lastly, Arnell Ignacio asked for Ogie Alcasid’s pardon for not holding back his thoughts.
