On January 26, actor-vice governor Ejay Falcon felt blessed that Star Magic allowed him to work on a GMA Network project.
At the media conference Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis Season Two, which LionhearTV covered, Falcon expressed gratitude to Star Magic for allowing her to join the Kapuso sitcom.
“Siyempre, sobrang thankful at napaka-blessed ko na from ABS eh nakatawid ako. Napayagan naman ako ng both networks, sila Direk Lauren napayagan naman ako and then sa GMA naman, si Miss Lilybeth Rasonable. So, parang ang sarap lang ng feeling na nakakagawa ng ganon.
“At sana, magtuloy-tuloy ‘yung ganitong sistema na pwede tayong makapagtrabaho sa iba’t-ibang network. ‘Yun ang masaya eh, na nakakatrabaho mo ‘yung iba’t-ibang artista. ‘Yung ibang mga production people.”
He then recounted how he asked permission from Star Magic Heads to take on the Kapuso project.
“‘Yung contract po kasi, nagpaalam naman po ako sa Star Magic para gawin ‘to and naging thankful ako na napaka-understanding nila at pinayagan nila ako na magawa ‘to.
“Yes po, parang ganon po. Opo parang per show po.
“Ang kinausap po ay Star Magic.”
He then highlighted how understanding Star Magic was when he took on the role in the Kapuso sitcom.
“Actually, technically, parang hindi ko na–wala po akong contract sa Star Magic. Technically, wala po akong contract sa kanila. Pero kasi, more on ano po kasi ‘yun eh, ‘yung mga tao rin po sa ABS-CBN at sa Star Magic, ay talagang Kapamilya ko na rin po. So alam mo ‘yun, napaka-understanding nilang mga tao. Hindi naman sila ‘yung parang selfish na ‘wag kang ipahiram. Eh kailangan din natin ng trabaho. So ganon.”
