Veteran showbiz columnist and talent manager Ogie Diaz expressed his willingness to have a dialogue with his former talent, Liza Soberano, if the latter will initiate. In his latest vlog, he shared how grateful he is that he was once the manager of Liza during the start of her career in the country several years ago.
Ogie was the previous manager of Liza before the latter transferred to record label Careless which was handled by James Reid. She has since left the actor’s label as well and is now with another management agency.

The showbiz columnist shared in his vlog that he had already known about everything that Liza talked about in her latest video–– from her dark past up until her family struggles. He claimed that he didn’t want to bring it up in the past as they were still establishing her name in the showbiz industry.
“Alam talaga namin yun pero hindi para idiscuss namin habang ineestablish namin ang kanyang career kasi hindi siya makakatulong,” he shared.
Ogie added that he has done his part as a manager and is still grateful with the partnership he had with Liza in the past as it helped him in his life as well.
“Alam naman ni Liza yung totoo–– we’ve done our part bilang manager niya together with Star Magic. Ngayon, kung kulang pa yun, narrative na ni Liza yun kung ano gusto niyang sabihin. Basta ako, pinagpapasalamat ko pa rin na dumating si Liza sa buhay ko at malaki rin naman ang naitulong [at] naiambag sa buhay ko ni Liza at hindi ko yun kinakalimutan,” he expressed.

While he may no longer be her manager, Ogie maintained that he still feels sorry for the actress and commended her for speaking her truth. He assured her that he is open to talk again if she wants to reach out to him.
“Ako, sa totoo lang, kung kailanganin ako ni Liza kung meron siyang gustong sabihin, kung meron siyang nais na ibigay ng closure sa amin, I’m very willing to talk to her. Kung makakatulong, tutulong tayo ng walang kapalit na porsyento man yan,” he added.
In her previous video, Liza revealed several things about her life which shocked her fans. Apart from her dark past and family struggles, she revealed that she had parted ways with her long term partner, Enrique Gil, for three years already.
