Comedian and actress Pokwang maintained that she has no bad blood with Kapamilya actress and Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11 Big Winner Fyang Smith. She clarified this in her recent guest appearance in Ogie Diaz and Inah Evans’ show, The Issue is You.
It was earlier this year when Pokwang gave a piece of advice to the rising star about being humble.

“My God iha 21 years na ako sa showbiz at ang sekreto BE HUMBLE iha yan muna ang pag aralan naka ilang PBB season na ang nasaksihan ko pero iilan nalang silang active sa showbiz so iha please wag muna mag yabang bad yan,” Pokwang previously shared.
Fans of the Kapamilya star took it negatively and attacked the comedian-actress, even involving her youngest daughter Malia, which the celebrity mom didn’t take lightly. Despite this, Pokwang maintained she harbored no ill feelings towards Fyang but rather was responding to the way her fans handled the situation.
“Hindi ako galit kay Fyang. Galit ako the way i-handle nung mga fans niya ‘yung payo na binibigay. Gusto mo palang bigyan ng payo bakit mo dinaan sa social media? Saan ba siya na-ano, hindi ba sa social media din?” she explained.
Pokwang then shared another advice to budding stars, not just towards the former PBB Big Winner.

“Realidad po ito. Wala ng next Marian, wala ng next Kathryn, wala ng magiging next Vice Ganda, wala ng magiging next Pokwang, Ai-ai–– wala na. Kasi ngayon, ang pag aartista, taon-taon may bago, taon-taon may reality show, every month may bago ng bago,” she said.
“Pero, yung maiiwan, yung ugali mo sa katrabaho mo sa industriya, yun yung magpapahaba para manatili ka dito,” she expressed.
She stressed how difficult it is to remain relevant in the showbiz industry nowadays with the rise of social media and various reality competitions.
“Tayo nalang ‘yung henerasyon na old school–– hindi galing sa social media. Talagang ang tagal, hinubog natin. Pero ngayon kasi, sikat ka this year, next year may bago nanaman reality show, may bago nanaman mananalo,” she maintained.
“Wala akong galit kay Fyang,” she ended.
