Veteran actress Yayo Aguila has a message for young talents regarding Filipino-American actress Liza Soberano’s issues about choices and love teams.
On March 10, via an interview, Aguila was asked regarding her opinion about Soberano saying the network boxed her into repetitive roles and leading men.
Aguila expressed, “Itong iniikutan nating mundo entertainment. May business element ‘to, di ba. So ganun talaga yung mga love team. Kaya nagkakaroon ng love team kasi yun ang gusto ng mga manonood. Kaya ginagawa ang love team.”
Aguila said that love teams were produced due to the public’s demand. She added, “So ikaw bilang artista, kahit na may manager ka, di ba may say ka rin naman. So basta maging clear ka lang kung ano yung gusto mo.”
Aguila emphasized, “Dapat alam mo muna kung ano gusto mo. Tapos pag may gusto ka, yun ang sabihin mo…Kasi kung ayaw mo, di naman mapapagawa sayo. Ngayon pag ginawa mo, kasi umoo ka, wag mong sasabihing hindi mo gusto, kasi ginawa mo rin e. May choice ka naman always.”
Aguila stated that a manager’s or handler’s job is to serve as a “spokesperson” if the talent is shy about speaking.
“Naniniwala ako na never mangyayari ang isang bagay kung hindi mo ginusto o hindi mo gusto,” she said.
On March 1, Lolit Solis nagged Soberano. The former says the latter has experienced a false feeling of sacrifice, a mood experienced by young artists.
Solis stated that it is funny that people complain about their sacrifices after achieving success.
On February 26, Soberano detailed how her career unfolded under ABS-CBN, noting how the network boxed her into repetitive roles and leading men.
