He has been subject of showbiz gossips lately. Will he jump off board and join a new network?
Piolo Pascual has been rumored to be leaving ABS-CBN to join Manny Pangilinan’s TV5 Network. Asked to confirm or deny the rumor, Piolo simply said that he is not closing his doors though he said that he is happy as a Kapamilya star.
He also added that there are on-going informal talks about transferring to other networks. He said,
“Wala naman hindi pa naman ako nakapunta sa compound ng TV5….There have been I think, more than negotiations, considerations, not just with TV5 even with seven (GMA-7) with anything for that matter because you want to grow in the business. So kaya sabi ko, hindi naman sa pagiging ingrato o walang utang na loob. You just wanna be able to work on things na alam mo pwede pang makapag grow sa ‘yo not just as a person but as a businessman and a showbiz personality.”
The rumor has become more controversial after entertainment and gossip sites said that Piolo’s camp was asking for a P1 billion three-year contract from TV5. Piolo cleared though that,
“Siyempre tao lang ako, pero sabi sa Bible kasi choose honor rather than riches. So, you have to protect your name before you be blinded by material stuff. I’m not closing my doors to anyone pero epokrito naman ako kung sasabihin ko na ito na ako. I mean you know, we all want to spread our wings and we want to maximize whatever talents we are given so masaya po ako wala po akong problema.”
Let us admit it; at the end of the day, celebrities cannot simply resist the glitter of wealth.
Maybe Piolo needs a bigger, wider door to open in order for the P1 billion to fit in when he takes it home.
