    1. Isa po siya nanalo sa Pinoy Pop Superstar in 2006 ka batch nya si Aiecele Santos, ahead sa kanila si Jonah Viray. Magaling po siya at nasa SOP na rin tapos biglang nawala.

    2. Sa singing competition where Aicelle Santos won, I think. He was good at acting din dati. Kaya successful sya sa theatre ngayon kasi may talent talaga sya.

    3. Singing contest sa gma 7 ata

    4. 11:13PM. May singing contest ang gma before. Kasabay nya si aicelle santos saka si harry (?) santos. Not sure where harry is now but si aicelle is kind of active pa din. Anyway, gerald won that contest. I clearly remember that because they were all Santos.

    10. Sinisira nila ang buhay ng mga menor de edad. 15? Mabulok dapat sa kulungan ang gumawa!

    11. Isa na namang maasim na kagaya ni 12:49, ang gumamit na naman ng "google" para makapag maasim.

      Delete
    12. 7:28 - totoo naman. Di uso Google? Like you don't see how thick the condescending tone and attention seeking behavior of that original comment?

  2. Di ako aware na nagkaron pala ng ganitong pangyayari kay Gerald Santos. I hope may chance pang makuha ang justice for him. Itong nangyari kay Sandro, nag pave ng way to shine light sa mga ganitong cover up ng network(s). Kung may iba pang biktima, I hope they get the courage now to speak up, so they may eventually find peace.

    1. ganda ng response ng manager! straight to the point.

    2. Kaya pala biglang nawala nagkaron ng issue. Ang sama naman ng ginawa sa kanya.

      Delete
    3. 1:10 I agree…yan din sana ang sasabihin ko.

      Delete
    4. Nagulat din ako bakit sya nawala eh. May ganito palang issue sa kanya at ang GMA eh hindi na nga tinulungan eh hindi pa binigyan ng trabaho. Nakakaloka tlaga ang mga kompanya sa Pilipinas. 🙄

      Delete
    5. May 15 yrs di ba from the time of incident para magkaso ang victim ng ganitong crime? Kung pasok pa ang grace period sana maghabla siya.
      Tutal nilaglag naman din siya ng network.

      Delete
  3. Ito talaga kawawa walang ngyari sa case nya. God sees everything. Makakarma din gumawa sayo nyan.

  4. I was wondering. May mga lalabas pa kayang biktima?

    1. Marami pa pero they will hide their identity baka magsabi lang ng nangyari about them

      Delete
    2. I think madami ng past victims, not sure if they will speak up now. Maybe yun iba na gaslight na, maybe yun iba nag move on na lang.

      Delete
    3. Yung iba naman drugs or alcohol or depressed

      Delete
  5. Kapuso ako pero now wala na kong tiwala sa inyo. May pa independent contractors pa kayo.

    1. Dahil technically, libre silang tumanggap ng trabaho sa ibang kumpanya. Hindi sila empleyado ng kumpanya.

      Delete
    2. 11:42 may post yung accused sa social media proud to be kapuso. Resident writers & creative consultant ng GMA for many years. Wag ka nga.

      Delete
    3. 11:42 PM I will be expecting GMA never to hire them again. If they do then GMA is an enabler for sure. Let's see, but personally I do not buy their paghuhugas ng kamay.

      Delete
    4. I dunno tong mga fanatiko ng network ewan ko sa inyo.. Di naman hawak ni GMA ang isip ng bawat empleyado nila or contractor nila. The thing is, the way they will handle this will matter, if they will tolerate this kahit na may mga evidences. Sana di na mangyari ang ginawa nila kay Gerald

  6. Aba may kinikilingan! Justice din for Gerald Santos! Kunin dapat ng GMA yan!

  9. OMG! GMA's response was so awful. Pinaramdam sa kanya how disposable he was. Traumatic yan for an adult, how much more for a minor like him at the time.

    1. kaya pala nawala siya at di nabigyan ng break eh napakagaling kumanta nyan walang mintis. pati acting may potential siya

      Delete
  10. Sad, na if you speak up, hindi ka lang mawawalan ng trabaho.. pati maraming opportunities mawawala din.. kaya victims don't/will not speak up.

    ReplyDelete
  11. My gosh GMA! Bakit naman up to now banned sya sa mga shows sya na ang victim grabe kayo!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Ang lala nito disappointed sa gma grabe bakit banned sya

    ReplyDelete
  13. Kung walang naiaakyat na pera malamang hindi na talaga bibigyan ng projects. Dun lang tayo sa totoo no! Business is business. And about sa issue ni Gerald, ibang usapan na yun. Hindi naman sya totally inabandona. Wag exagg!

    1. 12:10 what a depraved view. Firms can balance profit making while promoting the well being of their employees and talents. Appears like retaliation occurred. SMH

    2. How do you know? Insider ka ba? Base sa sinabi nung biktima hindi siya nasafeguard ng network niya

      Delete
    3. pero bakit hanggang ngayon banned sya?

      Delete
    4. 12:10 AM I really hope people like you get a taste of what these victims suffered from. That way matuto naman kayo maging sensitive. Wala ka rin lang masabi na mabuti then keep your mouth shut or your words will come back to you.

      Delete
  14. I feel so bad for him. :( please stop defending your favorite companies. May mga biktima dito. Sila ang importante.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Bakit kaya hindi sila nagfile ng criminal case? Hindi ba rape at child abuse yun kung hinarass si Gerard nung 15 years old palang sya? Di ba life imprisonment yung ganung case?

    1. Baka takot mawalan ng raket di manager

    2. Sobrang gastos magdemanda. Also, baka nakipagsettle din ang perpetrator. So many factors could have come into play.

      Delete
    3. Easy to say what should have done but hindi ganun kadali yun. Daming considerations.

      Delete
    4. 12:15am They are small fish in the big ocean. That is how it is in a corrupt entertainment world. Bakit ba nagmamarunong itong mga di nakaranas ng injustice?

    5. Sa totoo lang, matagal na proseso kasi yan. Time consuming na, magastos pa. Kada appearance nyo sa korte, may bayad. Bawat kibot ng lawyer, may bayad. Nagsisimula lang sya non. Syempre consideration ang gastos. Tapos magiging issue pa yun sa kanya. Times were different then. Pwedeng naisip nila, baka ikabagsak pa ng pangalan nya yun. Eh di lalong walang trabaho. At dahil dawit ang pangalan ng network, pwede ring maapektuhan ang trabaho (which still happened kahit walang kasong sinampa). Understabdable na matakot sya. Kaya oftentimes, nauuwi sa settlement ang mga ganyang kaso. Andami mo kasing kailangang isakripisyo - pera, oras, pagod, mental and emotional well-being.

      Malaking bagay na Sandro has the means, di problema ang pera. At suportado ng pamilya nya. Hopefully, this will set a precedent at mawala na etong mga sexual predators sa industriya.

    6. Yea at hindi galing mayamang ankan si Gerald kaya pinili nlang din nya mag moved on at magpa tuloy sa showbiz as independent artist. Magastos mag kaso. Manager nya nag taguyod sa kanya kahit walang network.

  16. Ikaw manager, ano ginawa mo? Takot ka lang din sa "giant network". Hindi ka fit maging manager kung hindi mo nalaban yang alaga mo.

    1. He did more than you who tries to cancel his person with the statement. Ano ba pinaglalaban mo? GMA defender ka rin ba? So kasalanan niya at di niya kaya labanan ang "giant network"?

    2. Why gaslight the manager?

      Delete
    3. Anong alam mo? Walang social media dati para sabihin mong wala silang nagawa

    4. May facebook na nun! Naka blackberry na ko that time at babad sa twitter. Excuses lang yan nung manager, feeling ko natakot lang din siyang mawalan ng kita from gerald. Kase kung concern talaga siya, where is the police report? Atleast dapat meron ganon na pinayo niya sa alaga niya. Kampi ko kay gerald, at naaawa ako na hindi siya natulungan ng mga tao sa paligid niya that time.

    5. It happened 2010. May social media na that time, so please stop saying wala pang social media nun time na un.

    6. Magastos din po ang magkaso. Mas pinili nlang ni Gerald mag moved on at mag focus sa career para makabawi ito. Well, kita naman sa mga achievements nya kahit independent artist sya. Di matatawaran ang mga naabot nito lahir walang network na nag backup. Galing sa simple family si Gerald magkaiba sila ni Sandro na mayayaman ang angkan. Breadwinner si Gerald kaya kelangan kumayod.. sabi pa nya sa interview wala syang time for grudges or grievances.. lalo ng time na yun pinapaaral nya ang kuya nya. Kaya nga sumali yan sa pInoy Pop Pop Superstar para matupad nya pangarap nyang maginhawang buhay sa family nya.. Di mo rin sya masisisi kung tumahinik nlang.

  17. I am angry on the one who reacted and tried to defend the network, kala mo alam lahat ng nangyari, but thankful it caused the manager to shed out light on what happened. Madami pa rin dito di pa nawawala ang "network war" mode kaya lagi dinedepensahan yung network na obvious namang may mali.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Ngayon gets ko na why Gerald who actually won the singing competition eh ang dalang ng work noon.

  19. Whoever participated in the banning and making it more difficult for him because he spoke up, I hope and pray makarma sila lahat. Blessings to those who helped him speak up, bumangon at manatili sa kanyang pangarap.

  20. Baka wala
    Din silang pera. You need to also understand sometimes decisions are made dahil talo ka na kahit di ka pa nagumpisa

    ReplyDelete
  21. sana the network takes accountability kasi kahit na independent contractors they carry the name of the network. And dapat yung values and discipline ng network embodied by contractors. Mag set sila ng higher sanction not just tatanggalin.

    1. Bakit ang sisi sa network? Sya etong sumama dun sa director sa raket. Baka nga di alam ng network yun. Mas malaki ang nawala dun sa musical director eh kaya wag pa victim. Patunayan nya sana kase ang hirap paniwalaan

  22. Mag file na sila Ng kaso keysa magpaparinig. Wala na ring karera Ang ibang singers Ng GMA7 kaya what's new?. Sino ba talaga Ang kaaway niya?

    ReplyDelete
  23. This the reason pala kung bakit sya nawala na lang. Magaling pa naman sya, he was like little Eric Santos before. I can’t imagine the trauma being a 15 yr old bagets to go thru this.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Ang sad!!!! 15 yes old pa lang siya nun. The trauma tapos hindi pa pinagtanggol ng home network. Sayang ang talent sa singing at acting. Sige lang may karma din naman po. It's either here on earth or dun sa impyerno .

  25. Then ang tagline ng GMA. Walang kinikilingan daw. Yun nga talagang dumidistansya lang.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Umaksyon naman pala ang GMA, anong justice sinasabi ng manager at ni Gerald? Nagfile ba kayo ng kaso? Hindi, so paano niyo makukuha ang justice? Sinisi pa sa network, eh di naman marketable si Gerald dati, very plain. Yes, may boses pero maraming magaling sa kanya dati sa SOP. Magaling at pansinin. Mas maingay at nas may clout naman kasi dati yung La Diva na si Jonalyn, Maricris at Aicelle na alumnae rin ng Pinoy Pop Superstar. Di ka naman pedeng itreat ng star or superstar kung di ka naman star or superstar material.
