- Asia’s Songbird will join her husband Ogie Alcasid in a Sydney show of rival network ABS-CBN on October 20.
- For the previous months, the rumors about Regine Velasquez switching network after her contract with GMA Network got expired and was not renewed have been circulating online.
- GMA Network was her home network for 20 years already.
Asia’s Songbird bids goodbye to her home network of two decades, GMA Network.
In a report from GMA News, Senior Vice President for GMA Entertainment Content Group Lilybeth Rasonable confirmed the rumors in an official statement.
“After two decades, Regine Velasquez-Alcasid has officially said her goodbyes to the Kapuso Network. We understand her decision to join her husband and we wish her well as she pursues other opportunities outside GMA Network,” Rasonable said.
Some of Regine’s shows on the network include the now-defunct Sunday noontime shows “SOP”, “Party Pilipinas” and “Sunday All Stars”. She has also starred in some of GMA Network’s primetime dramas such as “Ako si Kim Sam Soon” and “Mulawin vs. Ravena.”
The singer recently hosted talent search “The Clash,” as well as the Saturday cooking show “Sarap Diva.”
