JK Labajo broke his silence on Instagram after a video of him cursing onstage during the recently-concluded Rakrakan Festival 2019 held at the Circuit Events Grounds in Makati made rounds online.
Labajo, who performed with his band juan karlos during the first day of the two-day music festival, got prompted to curse at one of the attendees of the outdoor event after the person yelled “I love you Darren!” while he was introducing himself and his band members.
Fans will may well remember that JK Labajo sparked an online feud with fellow “Voice Kids” alum Darren Espanto back in October last year after stating “gayness at its finest” which allegedly referred to the latter in a now-deleted tweet.
JK Labajo has since denied the allegations and told the press in an interview back in November: “I don’t feel bad kasi I didn’t do anything. Kasi hindi naman ganun kakapal ang mukha ko para magsinungaling to the extent pati sa harap ng mga boss. You know what I mean.”
Taking the opportunity to address the incident which has since gone viral on social media, JK wrote: “‘Wag kang manghusga ng tao dahil lang sa mga video na nakikita mo. Lalo na kung hindi mo alam ang tunay na konteksto.”
He then went on: “‘Yun ‘yung problema eh sobrang daming mga bastos at walang modo sa mga shows. Naghahanap ng paraan para mapansin. Mga asal hayop.”
“Tsaka hindi porket nagmumura, masama na ang ugali. Lumalaki na ang ulo,” he stated.
Explaining that what he did was how any normal human being would react, he wrote: “Obviously as a performer what I did was unprofessional but as a human being I think what I did was normal.” (Push)
