Hi Ms. Iza.. Good afternoon po.. Just a simple comment.. This is about Starstruck kung saan isa ka sa mga judges.. Napanood ko yung isang episode niyo na may nagsabi sa inyo na kitang kita daw ang bias niyo.. At ang sinabi niyo po kung hindi ako nagkakamali, e totoong may kinakampihan at gusto kayong manalo.. pero ang sabi niyo nasa tao pa rin yun kung gusto nilang manatili ang survivor, dahil mas malaki pa rin ang percent ng votes ng tao.. Pero, hindi po ba ang isang judge, kahit may gustong manalo, e dapat hindi pa rin ipakita na sobrag gustong gusto mo yung tao na yun.. please watch and give your comment fairly.. Dati kasi po idol na idol ko kayo.. pero as time pass by.. at hanggang napapanood ko kayong nagja-judge, eh nawawala paghanga ko sa inyo.. I want to see an Iza Calsado which is fair in everything.. God Bless po!
