Poll: Eric Santos Denies He Is Gay. Agree or Disagree? Why?


Source: www.abs-cbnnews.com

MANILA, Philippines -- Erik Santos said he is past feeling offended by persistent rumors that he is gay.

The 30-year-old singer, in an interview on "Showbiz Inside Report" aired Saturday, said he has conceded that his critics are not likely to change their opinion of his sexuality.

"Noong una, siyempre [napipikon ako], pero ngayon, kung anuman 'yung ipakita mo sa kanila, hindi mo naman sila mapi-please," he said.

"Kung anuman 'yung paniniwalaan nila, 'yung pa rin naman 'yung pinaniniwalaan nila eh. Bahala na kayo sa buhay niyo," said Santos, who is celebrating his 10th anniversary as a professional singer.

To mark his decade-long career, the "ASAP" mainstay is releasing two albums -- "The Erik Santos Collection," a compilation of all the film and TV series theme songs he has performed, which is now out in stores; and a new all-original album.

Ten years since he emerged champion in the Kapamilya singing contest "Star in a Million," Santos has a clear vision of where he wants to take his career.

"[Singing is what I do best] and feeling ko 'yun ang strength ko," he said in an earlier interview. "Mag-offer nang mag-offer ng kanta, masaya o malungkot. Iyon ang direksyon ng career ko. 'Yun pa rin."

    1. Kelangang magdeny?!! Me dapat bang maconfirm?! Pano ba kasi nagkaron ng ganung Chismis sa kanya? Dahil mallamya lang syang kumilos? Ginaya nya dapat si piolo no confirm no deny. Deadma lang mamatay sa speculation ang mga chismosoas! Like si Raymond derrick zoolander ng pinas lang talaga sya! Fashionable! Ang me angal e makipagsukat ng pagkalalaki nya sa kanila!

  13. Bakit may agree disagree? Walang agree disagree. Sya lang ang nakakaalam ng kanyang sexual preference. Pag sinabi nyang hindi sya homosexual, wala kayong magagawa kasi hindi naman mao siya. Puro haka haka lang. And remember pwedeng, gay, bi, pan, etc

      Eto na yata ang pinaka-sensible na comment na nabasa ko dito. Siya lang ang nakakaalam ng sexual orientation niya. Kung sinabi na niyang hindi siya gay, then let him be. Ano bang alam ng tao para i-insist otherwise?

  14. he is straight. yung male friend ko kasi naka-work niya dati si erik and he says that erik is naturally malamya talaga kaya napagkakamalan. he is so secure sa sexuality niya that's why even if they hold hands and kiss each other eh walang malisya yun.

    6. 1:13 and 1:48, It's about time we Filipinos change that mentality. We shouldn't care for the artist's preference. There are actors in the US who are gay but effectively portray manly roles take Neil Patrick Harris as an example. He admitted it based on his own time.
      Let us focus on talent not on the publicity that gossips generate.

    8. Agree,let them be. And for people who are forced to lie to protect their career, just tell the interviewer not to ask this question. Mag reason out na lang na sawa na sa question na yan, etc.

      Delete
    9. For 1:13AM, will his admission make him a better artist? There are things that should be private. I appreciate his talent regardless of what he does behind closed doors. Hindi mo sya pag-aari.

  28. It is his life, let him live the way he wants it to be. I believe he is not gay. Gays can only keep to himself, his true personality for sometime. He can not lie to himself for so long, more so, if there is a pressure from the people.I don't think he has reason for keeping it a secret , if he really is gay. I believe he knows it is already accepted.
    He doesn't owe us anything, even if he is gay. It should not affect us even if he wants to keep it a secret. It will not kill us even if he lie about his sexual preference.
    Respect my fellow readers, respect on his choices that is all we need to do.

  42. I'm really a fan of Mr. Erik Santos, at naniniwala ako na bimale siya, kasi hindi ka naman magdududa sa isang sexual orientation ng isang tao kung walang pinanggagalingan or basehan. Just give him a time, getting out of a closet may be one of the most difficult decision to make sa isang taong katulad nya.Siguro hindi pa siya handa lalo na sa mga magiging reaction ng mga tao. Wag kayong atat!! Lalo lang kayong nagpapahirap na mag-out siya.

  54. So what? That`s a private matter! Media(s) and fans should not ask that kind of questions. Let them be, that`s their right. Don`t use the excuses that their public figure nor role model. You`re already paying them to do the things for your own entertainment. Criticise their craft and talent.

  55. hindi dapat pilitin mag-out ang mga taong ayaw mag-out.sariling desisyon ng mga gays kung kailan o saan sila mag-out.so,if they don't come out to you,that's their choice and it's none of anybody's business.

  60. he was my schoolmate during elementary and high school. masasabi mo non talaga na parang gay sya. pero unti-unti na syang nagbago nung high school, parang nagpaka-lalake na sya non. (nagka-GF nga sya non) i think he just made a choice to become straight. yun nga lang, malamya cguro kilos nya kaya napagkakamalan syang gay. but i think every person has the right to change for the better. infairness, noon pa man, maganda na talaga boses nya.

  63. Sexuality among celebrities is an endless debate especially among suspected gays. Whether they admit or not does not change the world.

    Personally, I don't perceive people based on what I just see but what they claim. If a man says he is not gay, why not take his word for it. If what he claims may seem to be a lie in the future, he did not fool us but himself.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Is this what the expression "makitid ang ulo" means, (referring to some of the comments). Who cares, he's a singer. Would his songs sound any different if he was gay or not....
