After arriving in the country yesterday morning, international pop star and former child actor Billy Crawford got busy with his media blitz as the new host of Pinoy Dream Academy. During his press conference, which happened just a few hours after his flight, Billy gamely answered questions from the press, which included issues like his abrupt change of...
network and supposed ungratefulness to his longtime manager Raul Laurente and showbiz “Tatay-tatayan” German Moreno.
The 25-year-old singer admitted that even he himself was not aware of the plans his management had in store for him. He says that the move to do PDA was a bit of a surprise because he was busy concentrating on preparing for his new album, which will probably be released by next year. “Honestly I was not expecting anything at this point. I’m actually supposed to be mixing the album with my production company and then this happened,” he admits. Although he said that the decision to suddenly switch networks was out of his hands, the singer says that he would rather dwell on the positive effects of the move. “This is my first time talking about it since it was discussed and that’s why I’m actually kind of nervous pero I think the main thing is for me is that it’s always a pleasure just to come back to the Philippines, no matter where I go. And yung mga sumusuporta sa akin, I really appreciate it kasi I’ve really just lifted everything to God. It’s all up to him. Wherever he takes me, I’m there. I know feelings will be hurt here and there. I really don’t wanna address that kasi it’s a little bit too personal. But I’m the same Billy Joe from before and I would never change. I’m just really excited (right now),” he stresses.
But after the news that Kuya Germs got disappointed in him after reading in the papers that he had already signed on for the show, this prompted Billy to smooth things out soon with his surrogate father in showbiz. Billy also denied the rumor that he refuses to see his showbiz mentor while he’s here. “That’s nonsense. I would never say that,” he says. Contrary to that, Billy says he even used to keep in touch with Kuya Germs even when he was abroad. “Kuya Germs has been my father and will always be my father in showbiz. For example, isang anak na hindi pinapayagan umalis for college. Somewhere where the parents don’t want the kid to grow up and go to college. Then all of a sudden, this kid grows up, goes to that college he wants to go to and becomes very successful at the end of the day. He’s going to make his parents proud. And that’s all I want to do for Kuya Germs. I do want to make him proud. And I do love Kuya Germs with all my heart. He is a father to me. No matter what anybody says. Tatay ko yun. If someone talks in a negative way about Kuya Germs, they’ll also deal with me. I want to address this issue but I’d rather talk to him face to face,” Billy explains. When it comes to his longtime manager Raul Laurente, Billy also chose to keep his answer short and simple. “I haven’t talked to Tito Raul since everything has been going on and to address any questions about Tito Raul, I would rather deal with it personally because I can’t say anything. I love the man. I’ve known him since I was five years old. That’s all I can say,” he shares
Right now, Billy will be busy with preparations for the PinoyDreamAcademy launch and is looking forward to enjoying every single minute of the whole experience. “Wow, this is my life. I’ve been on TV and performing since I was three years old. Pinaka-importante sa akin is showing my talent and showing what God has given me. I’m here to show my fans what I’ve got and I’m going to continue to show them what I’ve got. So I hope that the fans will support me no matter where I am. So nandito pa ako actually para sa kanila,” he concludes.
