James Reid has a message for Liza Soberano
Nagsalita na ang aktor at singer na si James Reid tungkol sa working relationship nila ng aktres na si Liza Soberano.
Kinumpirma ni James, na siyang CEO at founder ng Careless Music, noong July 29, na hindi na bahagi ng Careless Music si Liza Soberano.
In an interview with Ogie Diaz posted on YouTube, James said, “Wala na siya sa Careless. It’s her decision to leave, actually.” He continued, “Siya ang umalis. Mas focus siya sa career niya sa L.A. (Los Angeles), and mas focus kami sa Philippines.”
Dagdag pa ni James, “With my music career, I’m going back to acting. We had different career paths and she has her own co-management sa L.A., Transparent Arts.”
“Actually, she’s really been managing herself I can say…making a lot of her own decisions.”
He clarified that he and Liza are on good terms and he is open to working with her again.”Ganun talaga si Liza,
very creative, very ambitious, very business-minded. It’s been great working with her. She’s a very sweet girl. ”
“We wish her all the best with her career in L.A., with all her international projects. I just want her to know na may babalikan siya dito sa Pilipinas.
The Careless team is always here for her no matter what. It’s been a great ride nagtatrabaho kasama siya sa nakalipas na limang taon, sa pamamagitan ng pandemya, napakalayo na ng kanyang narating, at ipinagmamalaki namin siya.”
Ikinuwento rin ni James kung paano siya nagpasya na maglabas ng pahayag na wala na si Liza sa ilalim ng Careless.
“Sa amin nanggaling ‘yan, sa Careless ‘yan. May sense lang kasi ang daming rumors na lumalabas. ‘Umalis na ba si Liza sa Careless?’ ‘May problema ba?'”
“I made the call to release it so it’s clear na we’re no longer managing her.”
“Yes. When we told her we’re going to release the statement, actually hindi pa siya bumabalik sa amin. It’s been difficult to contact her, nasa U.S. siya, she’s been very busy, but we had talked about it before. ”
He also reiterated that he has no ill feelings against Liza, “Hindi ako galit na tao, it takes a lot to get me upset.
No, we wish her all the best, and it’s very difficult, what she’s doing, pushing her U.S. career, binibigyan namin siya ng 100 percent na suporta, kahit lahat ng projects niya dito, sinusuportahan pa rin namin siya.”
Pinayuhan din ni James si Liza na maging maingat sa pakikitungo sa ex-Careless CEO na si Jeffrey Oh.
Sinabi ko sa kanya, ‘Ikaw ay matalino, masipag ka, lahat.’ Nakipag-usap ako sa lahat ng nakatrabaho ko at ngayon na lumabas ang pahayag na ito tungkol kay Jeff, sa tingin ko ay napakalinaw na maging maingat sa karakter na ito.”
Ipinaliwanag naman ni James ang alitan nila ni Jeffrey. “Niloko niya ako. I’ve been working with him for a very long time. It turns out he was not the person he said he was.”
Ipinaliwanag ng aktor kung paano siya inutang ni Jeffrey, at umalis habang pinuputol din ang komunikasyon sa kanya at sa Careless team. “More than a hundred million, sa akin personally. And there’s more for other companies.”
Higit pang nagkuwento si James tungkol sa hindi pagkakaunawaan nila ni Jeffrey at sa plano nitong bumalik sa pag-arte sa Pilipinas sa kanyang panayam sa ibaba.
