PUSH TEAM

Angel Locsin expressed her gratitude to her fellow actress Sarah Geronimo for speaking in solidarity with their home network ABS-CBN, following the decision of lawmakers to shut down the media giant for good on July 10. In a statement through her social media platforms on Sunday, July 20, the Popstar Royalty rallied behind the Kapamilya network, which has supported her singing and acting career for more than a decade, saying her ABS-CBN family has been instrumental in molding her into the person she is today. <blockquote class='twitter-tweet'><a href='https://t.co/KEzg9dQJSS'>pic.twitter.com/KEzg9dQJSS</a>— Sarah Geronimo (@JustSarahG) <a href='https://twitter.com/JustSarahG/status/1284775534451404800?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw'>July 19, 2020</a></blockquote><script async src='https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' type='text/javascript'></script> “Malaking bahagi po ng aking karera ang ABS-CBN.

Malaki po ang utang na loob ko sa network na ito at habangbuhay ko po ipagpapasalamat ang bawat oportunidad, tiwala na ibinigay nila sa akin,” she added.On Instagram, Angel said she’s happy that Sarah has finally spoken out, and denied that she was alluding to the singer when she vented her anger over her fellow ABS-CBN stars who chose to remain silent over the network’s lost fight for a fresh 25-year franchise during a noise barrage protest outside the network’s headquarters in Quezon City last Saturday, July 18. “Nagsalita si Sarah,” she said in a comment.“Iniisip ng tao pinaparinggan ko sya, pero hindi eh,” she went on. “I know how ‘pure’ she is. Wala siyang social media, alam rin narin hindi sya vocal sa maraming bagay bilang ang bait. Pero nagsalita sya. At nakakatuwa yun.”<img alt='' src='https://push-data.abs-cbn.com/push/push/media/2020-july/072020/angel-locsin-thanks-sarah-geronimo-for-speaking-out-in-support-of-abs-cbn-1.jpg' >Screenshot from twitter.com/Popsters_OfclAddressing Sarah, Angel wrote in her Instagram Story: “Thank you, Sarah G.
