Angel’s manager ‘pressured’ over reports on GMA-7 ban

MANILA, Philippines -- Talent manager Becky Aguila was tightlipped over reports that GMA-7 would impose a ban on her talents.

According to reports, GMA-7 issued a memo that it would temporarily not acquire the services of Becky’s talents, which includes Angel Locsin and Jennylyn Mercado.

Through a close associate, Becky told INQUIRER.net that she considered the reports as mere “rumors” and said would rather not talk about it. However, the talent manager-film producer claimed she was “feeling the pressure.”

There were reports that Becky had begun talks with ABS-CBN for Angel’s transfer to the Kapamilya network. Becky also declined to comment.

Becky had met with GMA-7 executives on Wednesday over Angel’s no-show in the network’s 57th anniversary celebration on the noontime show “SOP” last Sunday. INQUIRER.net also tried to reach GMA-7 entertainment officials but were not available for comment as of this writing. Becky also remained mum on their meeting.

Becky had allegedly told the network Angel could not attend the anniversary celebration because of a “commercial shoot.” Curious about Angel’s glaring absence, reporters asked a personal assistant (PA) of the young actress the next day why she did not show up. The unnamed PA answered Angel was actually at home and only waited for a phone call from GMA-7.
