Singer Christian Bautista admitted to losing money because of the pandemic.
In his interview for his contract renewal with GMA Network, Bautista recalled how the pandemic impacted his finances as a performer.
“Sabihin na lang natin na malaki po dahil pag walang corporate shows, walang provincial shows, walang international tours, medyo malaki po ‘yun.”

“Kaya napaka-grateful ako na to still be renewed dito po sa GMA. Because despite what happened last year, we are hopeful, preparing, and raring to go, to get it all back and more.”
As for his career as a Kapuso, Bautista revealed that he received all the platforms he could want to explore as an artist.
“I was not given enough platforms. I was given all the platforms. To the point na, I was even a part of Alden Richards’ virtual reality concert as Line Producer. Something na I’ve always tried as well. And, I’ve learned so much sa show na ‘yun even behind the camera, how concerts work, especially in this new normal.
“I’m also given opportunities to suggest; to propose; to give ideas; to wrestle with ideas. And ang sarap ng feeling that you’re able to do that.”
Christian also expressed his excitement for The Clash Season 4, especially for the energy of their contestants.
“I’m so excited for this new energy na papasok sa the Clash Season 4 that as a judge, as a contestant ano ‘yung energy nila, that hopeful energy na nakikita nila na pabukas na ulit ang mundo. Slightly, as the vaccinations come in. So, I’m so excited to see those battles.”
Bautista also signed his 12th-year contract with Universal Records Philippines earlier this year.
