- Kiray Celis reveals the reason why she left ABS-CBN
- She believes that her career had become stagnant in the Kapamilya network
- Celis added that this decision will help her grow as a person and an artist
Kiray Celis, after many years with ABS-CBN, has made a surprise turn of her career this year by transferring to the Kapuso network.
Kiray has been silent regarding the reason behind her transfer, until recently when she stressed out in an interview with GMA Network.
“Sabi ko sa sarili ko, hindi na ako naggo-grow as an artist. I need something more.
“Nagge-guest lang ako kapag may pelikula akong pino-promote, and then I realized, ‘Paano pala kapag wala akong pelikula, so wala akong guesting?’
“So, doon na nag-start na parang I need to step back and sa pag-step back ko na ‘yun, iba na ‘yung tatahakin kong papuntang lugar, kung saan ako dapat pumunta.
“And I decided na pumunta rito sa GMA.
“And sobrang nagulat naman ako kasi sobrang grabe ‘yung welcome nila and naramdaman ko agad ‘yung love and ‘yung respeto sa talento ko, ‘yung respeto nila sa akin sa pagiging artista.”
She is confident that the Kapuso network will help her grow as an artist and will pave the way to success in the showbiz industry.
“Marami pa akong gustong gawin, kahit ano. Kahit ano gusto kong gawin pero hindi kasi ako nabibigyan ng chance para gawin ‘yun isa-isa.
“So, ito ‘yung tamang place para gawin ko ‘yun lahat, para maipakita ko pa sa mga tao na hindi lang si Kiray ganito. Ganito rin siya, ganyan din siya, ito pa siya, ayan din siya. Ganun.
“Kasi kilala lang nila ako as comedian, kilala lang nila ako as ganito. I want something more for them and for myself.”
Kiray Celis concluded, “Gusto kong mag-grow as a person and as an artist.”
