Vice: Kung nandaya ka, ibalik mo ang award. Kung hindi, yakapin mo!
PMPC or Philippine Movie Press Club issued an official statement to address the controversial vote-buying issue raised by fellow columnist Jobert Sucaldito. Here’s a part of the statement.
“The PMPC is saddened by the unfortunate turn of events at the recently-concluded 30th PMPC Star Awards for Movies.
“Immediately after the awards ceremonies, a malicious allegation circulated in social media questioning the veracity of our Best Actor winner,” the statement said.
We strongly refute the said allegation. The voting members gave their utmost trust and confidence to the winners in their respective categories, thereby making the results final, uncontestable and sacred.”
Sa Showtime kahapon, nagsalita na si Vice Ganda about the issue, siya kasi ang nanalong best actor this year at sinasabing binayaran daw ang trophy niya.
“Gusto kong magpasalamat sa PMPC Star Awards for my first acting trophy. Sobrang kontrobersiyal ng award na ‘yan… narinig ko, nabasa ko. Nakakaloka! Nu’ng nabasa ko nga, sinabi sa akin, natawa ako, tumahimik lang ako.
“Sabi ko, kung kakausapin ko ang konsensiya ko, ano kaya ang sasabihin ng konsensiya ko sa akin? Sabi ng konsensiya ko sa akin, ‘Kung nandaya ka, ibalik mo ang award.
Kung hindi ka nandaya, yakapin mo ang award.’ Ito ang award,” sabay yakap sa kanyang trophy.
