Martin Nievera nipped a supposed issue with Sarah Geronimo in the bud, saying that the young singer has nothing to do with his absence on "ASAP Rocks" on July 10.
Apparently, speculations arose that Nievera ditched the planned celebration for his 29th anniversary in showbiz on "ASAP" because it coincided with Geronimo’s return to the Sunday noontime variety show.
Geronimo returned to Manila recently from a month-long stay in the US where she took up dance and singing lessons. But with Nievera's absence from the show becoming a topic among his Twitter followers, he had to reply to the queries.
“Attention everyone! My sadness yesterday has nothing to do with Sarah!
“Sarah has NOTHING to do with any of this as far as I am concerned,” Nievera posted on Monday.
Perhaps what led his Twitter followers to believe that the singer has ill-feelings towards Geronimo was his reply to a follower’s tweet addressed to him on Sunday: “bakit c sarah may welcome back prod c @4eversinging4u wala?”
“thats an even better question. if i ask that question then it shows an element of insecurity. Sakit nga,” Nievera's reply read.
Nievera’s tweet, “its better to be a diva pala...,” also on Sunday, gathered reactions from his followers as well, who hoped he was not referring to Geronimo.
“no no what i mean is being demanding or stobhorn. Sarah is none of the above. NOT a Diva. i only said that because i am NOT a Diva either, but most of the time the ‘Divas’ or ‘Divos’ or their managers get the better i was speaking about the definition or description of a Diva. I was not referring to anyone in particular,” one of Nievera’s replies read.
In a separate tweet, the veteran singer said, “walang issue! Mahal na mahal ko si Sarah!”
“there is no problem with Sarah! There NEVER is!” he stressed in another.
On Sunday, a somber Nievera posted tweets expressing disappointment over being “forgotten.”
“All of a sudden i don't wanna celebrate my 29 years in showbiz.
“If there is one thing i would want after my 29 years in the business it would be to simply be remembered.”
When a follower asked him about his tweet, Nievera replied rather cryptically, “the people u least expect forget.”
Nievera also reacted to friend and "ASAP Rocks" co-host Gary Valenciano’s tweet announcing Geronimo’s comeback.
“I believe that in hebrew the translation of the word princess is...Sarah. Yes tweeps she's back and she's ready to rock ASAP mamaya,” Valenciano said.
“hey bro i am back too. remember me? Your ‘bro?’” Nievera replied.
Valenciano answered Nievera, saying, “i know you are but what happened? I had all my stuff set aside for you then found out you were absent. You ok?”
“you are asking me now? You only noticed i was not beside you now?” Nievera retorted.
It also became apparent that Nievera’s mood on Sunday was somehow caused by the treatment he claimed he gets from "ASAP."
“even though i have been out for 2 months i was not needed today,” his reply read to a fan who asked him why he wasn't on "ASAP Rocks" that day.
When a fan plugged his supposed anniversary celebration on "ASAP Rocks," Nievera replied, “there is no celebration for my 29th. Maybe next year.”
“i think the 29th year in showbiz wold have been a nice thing to shout about,” he mused in another response to a fan.
The Concert King went on to express his feelings on Monday through the popular microblogging site:
“u wanna know the sad truth? only if u have a persistent manager can u get the treatment u wish u had.”
“loyalty, faithfulness, being there from the 1st day, NONE of this matters. all u need is a loud demanding manager.”
“why is it the good guy always finishes last?”
“But maybe my sadness stems from the reality that ASAP can do without me. I see it for myself. It's a sad happy pain.”
Despite this, Nievera clarified that “in my 29 years in the business 16 of those years were on ASAP. I LOVE ASAP” and that he is still with ABS-CBN.
Nievera did not elaborate further on the reason for his supposed sadness, saying, “Even in this business there are growing pains.”
“Progress is progress. Accepting it is half the battle,” he said.
