SITUATION DETECTED: The U.S. is preparing to tell dozens of countries they must choose a side in the AI competition with China. Those that join Beijing’s AI framework will be excluded from the U.S. led Pax Silica initiative, according to an internal draft letter seen by Reuters.
Shuvee may have felt safe under Duterte, that’s her truth.
But personal truth isn’t universal truth.
It’s like saying Hitler was “right” because some Germans benefited, while millions suffered.
Safety for some can mean harm for others.
GMA Sparkle Artist Center has addressed online speculations about their artist, Shuvee Etrata, following the resurfacing of old videos of her praising the effects of former president Rodrigo Duterte's anti-drug campaign in her hometown.
In response to The STAR’s questions on whether the controversial videos have affected the actress' brand endorsements, Joy Marcelo (first vice president for Sparkle, GMA Artist Center) said in a text message to this paper:
“To clarify, Shuvee continues to receive support from her partner brands. While a few did ask about the situation, they were very understanding once we explained the context behind it. There has been no major fallout when it comes to her endorsements. As a matter of fact, there are still brand launches happening in the next few weeks.”
As for her It’s Showtime hosting stints, Marcelo explained: "As for It’s Showtime, Shuvee is currently just busy with other prior commitments, including tapings for her new soap which begins next week and shoots for movie / endorsements. She's expected to return to It’s Showtime soon as schedules permit. Apart from this, Shuvee still has a lot of other projects and appearances.
We appreciate your interest and hope this helps clarify things.”
Earlier, in a Facebook post, GMA senior vice president Annette Gozon-Valdes expressed support for the “wrongfully and unfairly attacked” Shuvee, saying the fast-rising star is not a “die hard” supporter of any politician.
"She has had very, very few (and short) posts that had political color in the past. She gave her personal observation and opinions of what she believed to be good acts and bad acts done by the government. If she personally observed that the negative effects of drugs were mitigated IN HER NEIGHBORHOOD, let's respect that — just as we should respect her stand against the shutdown of ABS-CBN.
Please, let’s respect each other’s opinions… Let's join forces to cancel corruption, not people who work hard for their family." | via Nathalie Tomada
