Kapamilya young star Kyle Echarri took to social media to address netizens questioning his presence during Johnny Manahan’s birthday party with OG Star Magic artists.
On Wednesday, March 29, Kapuso star Heart Evangelista posted a group photo along with Mr. M., Mariole Alberto, and Star Magic originals Jericho Rosales, Piolo Pascual, Diether Ocampo, John Lloyd Cruz, Maja Salvador, and Bea Alonzo.
It was a mini-reunion of the former Star Magic stars and a belated birthday celebration of their “tatay-tatayan” Mr. M, who celebrated his birthday in February.
Meanwhile, noticeably included in the photo is Kapamilya young star Kyle Echarri, prompting some netizens to ask what was he doing there with Star Magic’s biggest stars.
In response, the young Kapamilya star tweeted on Thursday, March 30, pointing out that he’s not obliged to explain everything to people, especially if it has nothing to do with them.
“[No] need to explain anything to anyone that has nothing to do with what you’re doing… remember that all loooove”
