We want to protect freedom of speech, but not an unlimited speech
That’s right, folks, the recent viral drama has turned legal.
Denise became a trending topic before the holidays when BJ Pascual related a stressful experience he had while working with her team. BJ mentioned that Denise’s team canceled the day before their scheduled shoot. After the viral video went viral, Denise announced that she would be taking a social media break.
OPM singer Denise Julia has spoken once again after fashion photographer BJ Pascual posted multiple screenshots to share his side of the story. This stemmed from a revelation made by BJ in a video podcast naming Denise as the “worst celebrity” he has worked with.
On X, Denise quoted BJ’s screenshots with a full screen recording of the messages between her manager, John Vincent Salcedo, and the fashion photographer’s manager, Pearl Acuesta. The OPM singer shared the whole conversation for “full transparency as we have nothing to hide.”
“We went into this wanting to work with you—we were genuine fans and we’re so excited about this collaboration,” Denise began.
Denise also explained that they have been upfront with their budget for the music video, the photoshoot, the album art, the trailer, and the press photos from the beginning. Furthermore, she said that she had also rescheduled the entire release date so that she could work with BJ and respect his time.
Denise Julia said that her manager suggested solutions and new dates to push through with the shoot so that “no one’s effort goes to waste.”
“What hurts the most is seeing my character publicly attacked over something that’s not out of my control but is a business negotiation between our managers and conversations that should’ve stayed private. You targeted me to bring me down,” she said.
She also added, “I thought this was something we had agreed on to talk about in person. We are now in contact with our legal team about a defamation suit. I hate that this had to go this way when it didn’t have to.”
Recently, vlogger Killa Kush deleted BJ’s video guesting on the Bad B*tch Podcast. This episode contained BJ’s revelation about Denise. “Killa Kush deleted her BJ Pascual vid? Oop,” one user said on X. Denise quoted the tweet and said, “Damn at least delete mine and my best friend’s too.
As of this writing, Killa just deleted Denise and her best friend and creative director Carissa King’s guesting on the podcast.
