Social media personality and motivational speaker Rendon Labador blasted veteran TV host-comedian Joey de Leon following the latter’s remarks last July 10 believed to be about the producer and new hosts of ‘Eat Bulaga’ on GMA Network.
As the celebration of the 44th year of ‘Eat Bulaga!’ draws near, de Leon made remarks that apparently drew the attention of Labador.
“Kami ang legit. ‘Yung mga, alam n’yo na, peke… baligtarin ang legit… tigel na kayo please.”
Labador emphasized that TVJ owes a great deal of gratitude to TAPE Inc. because ‘Eat Bulaga!’ gained popularity and longevity because of the production company.
“Sa totoo lang T.A.E. kayong tatlo kung hindi nag-invest sa inyo ang TAPE. Hindi ninyo nakita ang ilang taong lugi nila sa inyo.
“Nag invest sila sa inyo nung nag sisimula palang kayo at hindi ninyo nakita yun kasi nabulag kayo sa kasikatan.”
Labador also suggested that de Leon should move on from the past events and focus on their new program on TV5.
“Hindi na ako natutuwa sa’yo Joey sa kakaparinig mo. Move on ka nalang at gawin ang trabaho mo! Sumusobra ka na! I stand sa mga negosyante na tumutulong lang naman pero sa huli ay parang sila pa yung napasama. Matanda ka na Joey, mag bago ka na. #stayMotivated.”
Labador concluded his comment by boldly stating that de Leon and the others were replaced because they have become irrelevant.
“Ang totoo niyan kasi Joey… kaya kayo pinalitan kasi laos na kayo. Hindi lang nila masabi kasi nakakahiya naman sa inyo. Wala na nanunuod ng TV ngayon Joey.”
On July 15, Labador further expressed his thoughts through a Facebook post, telling de Leon to keep his mouth shut since many netizens have chosen their side, and his behavior is not something that the younger generation should emulate.
“Tumatandang paurong si Joey!🤦♂️ Pinili na nga kayo ng mas madaming netizens, tikom mo na bibig mo at mag focus ka nalang sa trabaho mo. MOVE ON!!! Hindi maganda na tularan ka pa ng mga kabataan sa mga style mo. #stayMotivated”
As of this writing, de Leon has not yet responded to Labador’s comments.
Labador has been known for meddling on celebrity issues online. It can be recalled that he apologized to Michael V and Coco Martin for his criticisms.
