lakers88 Regine Velasquez gets apology over MYX Music Awards billing
The ABS-CBN Digital Team apologized to Regine Velasquez for its “oversight” on a MYX Music Awards promo material, in which the acclaimed singer’s photo was placed last among younger celebrities.
In the now-deleted promo material, ABS-CBN and MYX Global, which is under the former, showed the official presenters for this year’s MYX Music Awards.

Velasquez’s photo was placed last in the second row.
This drew flak among netizens particularly on X (formerly Twitter), with some describing such action as an “insult” and “disrespect” toward Velasquez. There were also those who pointed out that Gloc-9, another OPM icon, was placed in the second row as well in the promo material.

Kahit pa sabihin na ang target demographic nung pubmat at awards show is the younger gen. Maling-mali pa rin kasi MUSIC awards show iyun na produced ng Myx, a local MUSIC channel. Regine Velasquez literally carried and still is carrying the local industry on her back for years. https://t.co/5XDKcatfMk
