Last year, Darren and “Buwan” singer JK Labajo were embroiled in an online feud after the latter called him “gayness at its finest.” Insulted by his comment, Darren then challenged JK with a lawsuit.J K defended himself and said the tweet only posted on his Twitter account because he was hacked.
Darren rose to prominence after joining the first season of The Voice Kids Philippines and became one of the finalists. He first joined a competition at the age of ten, where he won the Masters Finals of the Pinoy Singing Sensation competition in Edmonton.
He made his first television appearance at the same age when he joined YTV’s reality television The Next Star in 2012. He is the youngest finalist in the history of the show to be included in the Top 6. He is currently a talent of Star Magic.
