Ogie Diaz aired his thoughts on Liza Soberano’s showbiz career.
On February 23, Soberano’s former talent manager, Diaz, shared his opinions regarding Soberano’s missing posts on her Instagram account and YouTube channel.
“Nanghihinayang ako sa career ni Liza. Wa echos kasi andun na siya e. Nahe-hurt ako bilang former manager na nakakabasa ako na ‘ano na ginagawa ni Liza sa sarili niya? Bakit nag-iiba na siya ng direksyon?
“Nanghihinayang ako kasi pinaghirapan naming lahat ito kung saan siya nandoon.”
Diaz stated the ABS-CBN Network did not fail to offer projects to Soberano and her boyfriend Enrique Gil. He said they got offered to do the Philippine adaptation of the hit Korean series titled It’s Okay Not To Be Okay, but the two rejected the offer.
Diaz shared that Soberano’s social media accounts were not hacked, saying it was part of her rebranding.
“Kusa ‘yun ginawa ni Liza. ‘Di ko alam kung ano ang personal na rason ni Liza. Pero ang nababasa ko ay may bagong simula atang magaganap.
“Sa akin lang, feeling ko, dapat hindi niya na tinanggal ‘yun. Kasi memories ‘yan e. History mo ‘yun. ‘Yun ang dati mong mukha. ‘Yan ang dating ikaw. Ngayon, kung ito na ‘yung totoong ikaw, eh di, that’s another chapter in your life, in your career,” Diaz explained.
In November 2022, Cristy Fermin said Soberano’s career is on the rocks.
“Bumaba ang premium talaga ni Liza, sadsad… Isipin mo, dito bida-bida siya as in bida, nagli-lead role sa mga teleserye, maganda ang ratings, mga commercial niya patok.
“Nagpunta sa abroad…nagka-pelikula pero hindi naman siya na-recognize. Ang tawag sa kanya, international ‘micro-starlet’, kasi biruin mo nakikisama lang siya, nagiging itsurang faney lang siya doon sa mga artistang nakikita niya, pa-picture,” she said.
In June 2022, Soberano transferred to James Reid’s talent agency Careless Music. The former said she would focus on her music career aside from being an artist abroad.
