Gladys Guevarra slammed Sharon Cuneta on social media after the latter forbade her from singing her song.
On March 10, 2022, senatorial aspirant Salvador Panelo sang Sharon’s song “Sana’y Wala Nang Wakas” in a campaign sortie at Quezon City.
On March 11, Sharon called out Panelo on Instagram saying that the senatorial aspirant is not allowed to sing her song. She said that only Leni-Kiko supporters are allowed to sing the song.
“Nanang ko po pls lang nakakahiya naman sa amin ni Willy Cruz! You are not allowed to use our song! Don’t mess with a classic. I allow its use only for Leni-Kiko! LOL. Utang na loob baka bumangon si Willy nakakahiya naman sa amin! Kinilabutan ako. In a bad way. Lol.”
The Megastar has already deleted her post.
On March 13, Gladys Guevarra then slammed Cuneta for her statement against Panelo. She expressed her disappointment to the singer.
“Bilang may pinsan at pamangkin akong may Down Syndrome, may pamangkin din ako at may anak akong may Autism . . . Sinasaluduhan at nire-respeto ko si Senator Panelo hindi sa kahit anu pa mang political reasons. Pero sa pagiging Amazing Father nya.
“Dati idolo ko si Sharon Cuneta, tuwang tuwa pa ko ng magkaroon ako ng pagkakataong makilala sya ng personal noon sa Eat Bulaga. Nakakapanghinayang lang, at tama naman din yung isang nabasa ko. Sayang yung ilang dekadang binuo mo at pinaka ingatang magandang imahe, sinira mo lang sa iisang nakakaidiring post at negative reaction mo sa ginawang pag awit ni Senator Panelo sa kanta na sinasabi mong dapat ipinaalam sayo.
“I used to have so much respect sayo Mega, bilang mang aawit din ako. Ngayon, malinaw pa sa mineral water na nakita ng lahat ang tunay mong ugali,” she said.
Meanwhile, in a statement on March 11, Panelo asked for forgiveness and explained that the singer’s song reminds him of his late son who had Down Syndrome.
