Sharon Cuneta’s decision to jump ship and sign a five-year contract with TV 5 last November created a storm of criticism, with some people calling her an ingrate for turning her back on ABS-CBN, her home network for 23 years.
“I was shocked by that reaction since a lot of other artists were already moving around the three networks. Why was it such a big deal?†she said during the recent press launch of her coming daily talk show “Sharon, Kasama Mo, Kapatid.â€
She lamented: “All of a sudden ang sama-sama namin. It’s unfair to us artists, because this is our choice … Ang sakit-sakit naman ng mga paratang.â€
Sharon was also annoyed at the accusation that the P1-billion TV 5 deal had blinded her. “I don’t know whether to laugh or cry when I get labeled mukhang pera,†she said. “
One billion is a huge amount, but it’s not new to me after 30 years in the industry.â€
