Jason Hernandez at Moira dela Torre
SUMAGOT si Lolito Go sa ipinost ni Jeff Vadillo, Bise Presidente ng Cornerstone Entertainment na management company ng singer-songwriter na si Moira dela Torre.
Ipinagtanggol ni Jeff ang mga paratang ng dating kaibigan ni Moira, na isa ring songwriter, tungkol sa sinabi nitong may ghostwriter ang mang-aawit sa mga hit songs niya.
Ayon kay Lolito Go na kaibigan din ng estranged husband ni Moira na si Jason Hernandez, “My official response to Jeff Vadillo of Cornerstone.
“With all due respect, sir, di ko po sinabi sa open letter ko na better songwriter ako. At hindi ko po dini-discredit si Moira. I, actually mentioned na ‘exceptionally gifted songwriter’ at ‘self-made’s’ya. Dagdag ko pa, one way or another, she’ll make it to the top.
“Pangalawa, sa issue ng ghostwriting, ayoko na pong magpost ng resibo rito. Alam kong inappropriate, if not illegal, maglabas ng screenshots ng private convos,” paliwanag ni Lolito.
Pinayuhan pa niya si Jeff na tanungin si Moira kung totoong hiningi nito ang serbisyo niya bilang songwriter at nagsabi umano ng presyo ang huli.
Sabi ni Lolito Go, “Tanungin n’yo na lang po si Moira kung totoong she asked for my services at kung totoong nagpresyo sya.
“Pangatlo, sa isyu ng collab nila ni Jason, I never said Jason wrote those songs ”
‘alone.’ I only said Jason wrote most of Moira’s hits to drive home the point na he is equally talented at hindi n’ya kelangang maki-ride or manggamit ng talent ni Moira like a lot of people are saying in social media. Thus, the rhetorical question: ‘Sino ngayon ang manggagamit?’
“Sa isyu naman po ng hindi pagbibigay ng proper credit, di ko naman sinabing sa lahat ng instance ay hindi s’ya nag-aacknowledge.

“In one particular instance, my name was not included sa Spotify credit for a song na I wrote 95% of the lyrics and the melody of. Sabi n’ya, it was an honest mistake. Di n’yo ako masisisi if I did not buy that alibi. Pakitanong na rin po sya tungkol sa bagay na ‘yan,” aniya pa.
Nabanggit din ng songwriter na naiintindihan niya na tama lang ipagtanggol ng Cornerstone Entertainment si Moira dahil bukod sa talent nila ito ay isa rin ito sa money-maker ng kumpanya.
“Maybe this will be the last time magsasalita ako sa isyu na to. I understand you needed to defend her image, her brand. Cash cow n’yo yan eh. Pero ‘wag din ninyong kunsintihin kung may nakikita na kayong red flags.
“Believe it or not, I care for her. I am doing this para mauntog s’ya at mahimasmasan. Masyadong sheepish ang mga kaibigan at kamaganak ni Jason para ipagtanggol ang sarili nila. I took the initiative na kasi ganito ako noon pa man. I can’t keep mum when injustice presents itself,” paliwanag pa ni Lolito.
Samantala, mukhang sa korte mauuwi ang usaping ito dahil nag-post ang legal counsel ng Cornerstone Entertainment na si Atty. Joji Alonso sa kanyang Facebook account nitong Linggo ng gabi na bagama’t blind item ay halata naman kung sino ang kanyang tinutukoy.
Post ni Atty. Joji, “I have been advising a celebrity client not to pursue legal action against her estranged husband, despite strong grounds against him, and instead focus on the more important issue – where a Petition is set to be filed.
“Then today, someone writes a story filled with lies and decides to make it a ‘pinned post’, with no intention other than discrediting and maligning said client. No matter how much I believe in forging peaceful co-existence, this is not one we will let pass.
“This someone must be sued and take accountability,” pahayag ni Atty. Joji.
Kaya namin nabanggit kung sino ang tinutukoy ng abogada ay dahil ni-repost ni Jeff ang post ni Atty. Joji.
Ang caption ng Cornerstone Entertainment executive, “Lahat naman sa Industry na ‘to may business interest given na ‘yan. But this is more than just business. Its about protecting a woman (my sister in heart) whose professional integrity – which she built through years and years of hard work and talent is questioned and maligned through sheer word play.
“This Message Repost hopefully would be my last statement regarding this matter. Thanks Atty. Joji Villanueva Alonso,” aniya.
