"Honestly, sumagi sa isip ko dati na umalis na lang muna sa ABS-CBN, not because I hate ABS-CBN. I love ABS-CBN! I owe ABS-CBN my career... But I just want to discover myself," says Jericho Rosales.

Nilinaw ng aktor na si Jericho Rosales ang napabalitang gusto niya nang kumawala sa ABS-CBN at lumipat sa ibang network.

Sa presscon ng hinu-host niyang bagong programa sa Kapamilya network, ang I Dare You, noong July 7, ay inamin niya sa PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at iba pang press na sumagi sa isip niyang maging "freelancer" muna pagkatapos umere ng primetime series niyang Green Rose.

Ani Echo, "Honestly, pangarap kong makatrabaho ang mga artista sa buong mundo, makalibot kung saan man may artista dito sa Pilipinas.

"Wala pong question yung pag-aalaga sa akin ng ABS-CBN. I love ABS-CBN.

"I came from Channel 7, hindi ko malilimutan yun," sabi pa ng aktor na produkto ng "Mr. Pogi" search ng GMA-7 noontime show na Eat Bulaga!.

"And I wish na makatrabaho ko rin ang mga artista sa Channel 4, Channel 9, Channel 13... kung saan man may artista sa iba't ibang network.

"I wish, kung ako lang yung isa sa artista na kung puwede ko lang basagin na natin yung kumpetisyon na yun sa iba't ibang network, gawin na natin."

Pero diin niya, "Although, I'm happy with ABS-CBN, it will break my heart kung mawala ako sa ABS-CBN."

Ipinaliwanag naman ni Jericho kung bakit naisip niyang magbakasakali sa ibang networks.

"Honestly, sumagi sa isip ko dati na umalis na lang muna sa ABS-CBN, not because I hate ABS-CBN.

"I love ABS-CBN! I owe ABS-CBN my career... But I just want to discover myself. "

Patuloy ng aktor, "What I love about my relationship sa mga bosses ko dito sa ABS-CBN, kay Tita Charo [Santos-Concio] and with Tita Cory [Vidanes], that we are open.

"I can say whatever I want and they will explain to me everything.

"So, sinabi ko po sa kanila na gusto kong maging freelance.

"Baka sabihin n'yo anong karapatan ko bilang artista para humiling ng ganun.

Bankable or no bankable Echo will always be there in the showbiz just like Christopher de Leon, Eddie Garcia, etc. as he is a very talented actor. Unlike big hit current actors now eh walang ibubuga in the long run so talagang they will be totally shelved in the dust bin.

Come to think of it, suwerte talaga ang tandem nina Echo and Anne Curtis. As in Baler, Anne won an acting award while in Green Rose, humahataw sa rating even it was shown in late hours. May kilig chemistry silang dalawa so please more of Echo and Anne please.

Of all the present crop actors Echo is the best of them all. Para lang napabayaan niya ang career niya when he got involved with that Heart of the matapobre familia. Echo is the one and only who could portray quality films like Baler. In Green Rose na super bagay na bagay sa kanya and executive looking.

i think mali yung nasulat ng writer here. kc last december pa ito nag start shooting at kaka end lng ng contract ni echo. pagdating nya pa galing new york sya pipirma ng bagong contract. dun plng malalaman mga new show nya. sorry na lng sa mga kapuso dito dahil madaming magandang feedbacks ang i dare you, at hndi ito pipitsugin dahil franchise 'to ng AXN! i'm sure di ito alam ng mga bitter na kapuso dahil hanggan kamuning station lng ang sakop ng utak nila hehe. never nagkaron ng pipitsugin na show ang ABS-CBN.lahat High Quality. i'm sure gagaya nanaman ang kamuning station,na puno ng starlet. walang nagtitiwala mag pa endorse sa mga artista nyo. wala kcng nararating. hahahaha.
