Star Magic defends Claudine Barretto and Kristine Hermosa |

Star Magic defends two of its biggest stars—Claudine Barretto and Kristine Hermosa—from wrongful accusations by two controversial press people, Alfie Lorenzo and Dolly Ann Carvajal.
Dolly Ann wrote in her column in the Philippine Daily Inquirer that Kristine Hermosa had an attitude problem, which made things difficult for Prinsesa ng Banyera director Andoy Ranay. Star Magic management commented, saying that the writer’s stories are very one-sided making it very biased. It also pointed out that Dolly Ann’s articles obviously did not give Kristine the chance to air her side. "Kristine has been a difficult actress in the past because of her youth and inexperience. She has always been a reluctant actress and star. But in recent times she has shown a certain maturity born out of experience and wisdom and she has exerted professionalism to a high degree," said Star Magic in defense of its ward.
Meanwhile, ABS-CBN’s talent management arm also chastised talent manager and entertainment writer Alfie Lorenzo, who accused Claudine Barretto of riding on his alaga, Judy Ann Santos’s popularity in making a showbiz come back. "Naiinis ako kasi they’re trying to find a way para gumawa ng ingay yung pagbabalik ni Claudine. Ang kinaiinis ko lumang style na yun," said the talent manager. Star Magic said that there is no truth to Alfie’s claim, and that Claudine does not need any help from Alfie nor his talent to make a comeback. "ABS-CBN believes that Ms. Claudine Barretto made a name in show biz and has a loyal following because of her popularity and hard work and has no need of any help from Judy Ann Santos and any bitter old men posing as show biz journalist. ABS-CBN has high regard for Claudine as with other artists."
