Xian Lim said that there should be no issue in having projects with different networks
Multi-hyphenate Xian Lim talked about the network loyalty issue that many artists in the Philippines have encountered.
Network loyalty is somehow a big deal among avid fans of a certain network. Switching networks is a crime for some people who have a mentality that celebrities should stick to their respective home networks.

However, for Xian, this should not be the case, based on the article in the Philippine Star. He has already done projects with major networks in the country. Aside from his past projects in the Kapamilya network, Xian Lim has done 1000 Heartbeats with TV5.
He also had some acting and directing projects under Viva. The actor-director-host is currently doing a series with GMA-7. For him, artists should not be questioned about their loyalty to a particular TV network.
“For a time, nagkakaroon tayo ng issue on loyalty with the network or an artist is exclusive to a company parang ganoon. I think, hindi siya dapat ganoon. For me, that’s my take on it, this is just my personal opinion. As an artist, you’re an empty shell, you’re just a vessel and you’re there to give life to a character given to you,” he explained.
He also said that it is the various projects that feed the artistry of an artist and that it is not about exclusivity. “An artist is supposed to be everywhere na gusto ng puso niya yung project. Kung gusto niya yung project, hindi siya dapat malimitahan ng isang major network,” he added.
Xian Lim also said that he is willing to work anywhere including AMBS which is now occupying Channel 2 which was previously occupied by ABS-CBN. The actor said that this is all about passion and the networks should understand that artists like him are just feeding their passion.
