On January 26, actor-vice governor Ejay Falcon addressed whether he’s open to being an exclusive GMA Network artist.
At the media conference Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis Season Two, which LionhearTV covered, Falcon remarked that it would depend on the negotiations whether GMA Network would offer him an exclusive contract.
“Ay ibang usapan po ‘yun. Alam mo mangyayari lang po ‘yan kung, mangyayari lang po ‘yan kung nandiyan na, so wala pa naman pong ganon. Ako naman po kasi, open naman po ako. Nasa magandang pag-uusap lang po ‘yan.”
He maintained how the people from Star Magic and ABS-CBN support his career decisions.
“Sabi ko nga, sa mga kasamahan ko sa Star Magic, at sa mga kasamahan ko sa ABS-CBN kung saan ako nag-umpisa, eh talagang napaka-supportive nila. Napaka-supportive nila sa akin.”
He noted how he would always be present for ABS-CBN and Star Magic, citing some of his recent Kapamilya projects.
“At ganon din, kapag kinailangan naman nila ako nandoon naman ako. Like di ba? Katatapos ko lang ng Nag-aapoy na Damdamin. In fairness sa kanila, sa JRB Production, headed by Julie Anne Benitez, and siyempre sila Tita Cory Vidanes, Direk Lauren, talagang nandoon pa rin ‘yung si Ejay ay bigyan natin ng trabaho.”
He then pointed out the scarcity of opportunities for actors, especially after the pandemic.
“Basta kapag may trabaho, kasi alam rin naman natin ngayon–marami din kasi tayo– tanggapin natin na iba ang sitwasyon ngayon. Marami din na siguro hindi kaya dati, lahat eh ang daming napro-produce na shows. Pero ngayon, siyempre limited lang, and ang dami ding artista ang nangangailangan ng trabaho.”
He then cited how he considers ABS-CBN his second family.
“So ganon naman sila, hindi naman sila selfish na tao na, hindi sa amin ka lang. In fairness talaga, ‘yun talaga ‘yung dugong Kapamilya, in fairness po sa mga bosses po natin sa ABS parang second family.”
