Darryl Yap will face the press
Director Darryl Yap is set to hold a press conference following the case filed by veteran comedian-host Vic Sotto.
On January 9, Bossing Vic had his reaction to the controversial teaser of Direk Darryl’s Pepsi Paloma movie teaser. In the less-than-a-minute teaser, Vic’s name was mentioned which, for many people, was put in a bad light.
Although there were people who admired the courage of the controversial director for making a movie that had become very controversial even before its release, many people also criticized him.
Vic Sotto said in an interview that people close to him and his loved ones have been asking him about his reactions when the teaser was released. He said that the case he filed was his answer. His wife Pauleen Luna admitted that they were affected by the movie teaser.
The Eat Bulaga host filed 19 counts of cyber libel against Direk Darryl Yap. In his reaction to the case he is facing now, the director said that it is everyone’s right to file a complaint. However, he stressed that it was a fact that Pepsi Paloma filed a case against Vic Sotto, and it was later retracted.
Based on the January 9 article by Abante entertainment writer Jun Lalin, they asked Direk Darryl through a private message who would be his lawyer for the case filed by Bossing Vic. “Tomorrow presscon,” the director answered.
When asked if the press conference will be held to face Bossing Vic, Direk Darryl answered, “Po? No naman… to answer questions lang.“
As of this writing, no details yet have been shared about the press conference that the director is planning to hold.
Meanwhile, in one of the recent Facebook posts that Direk Darryl Yap shared, he slammed a post from GMA News about the alleged decision released by the Muntinlupa Regional Trial Court.
