BINALAAN ng Viva Artists Agency ang mga botante ma-tapos kumalat ang mga campaign materials ng isang vice-presidentiable gamit ang mga litrato nina James Reid at Nadine Lustre.
Ayon sa management ng JaDine nakarating sa kanila na kumakalat ngayon ang mga street campaign ads ng nasabing kandidato kung saan makikita ang mga publicity photos nina James at Nadine sa pelikulang “This Time”. Paalala ng Viva walang kandidatong sinusuportahan o ikinakampanya ang magka-loveteam kaya isa itong malinaw na panloloko.
Narito ang official statement ng VAA: “This is to inform the public that Viva Artists Agency Inc. (VAA) and its artists, James Reid and Nadine Lustre, are not endorsing, supporting nor affiliated with any candidate for the 2016 Philippine elections.
“Any materials featuring the name, image or likeness of Mr. Reid and Ms. Lustre endorsing or supporting any political candidate were released and exhibited without the consent of Viva Artists Agency, Mr. Reid and Miss Lustre.”
