Here is the complete article from ABS-CBN:
MANILA, Philippines - Ms. Raquel Pempengco, mother of international singing sensation Charice, on Thursday said her daughter's fans should not be blamed for being angry with entertainment journalist-host Ogie Diaz.
In a message sent to abs-cbnNEWS.com, Mrs. Pempengco said Diaz cannot do anything if the "Chasters" get mad at him because of what he said against Charice.
“You cannot blame all Charice fans, especially ‘Chasters’, to speak out what’s in their mind against you Ogie D....You cannot blame them if they won’t accept your apology because of what you did to their idol.
"Because as you said ‘Ogie Diaz,’ they have their own opinion and that’s their opinion too...," Charice's mom said.
Diaz has drawn flak from Charice Pempengco fans, known as the Chasters, after he made several negative comments against the singer.
Diaz has apologized to the 18-year-old singer and her fans for saying that the singer's nerdy glasses "looks ugly on her." He also said sorry for saying that the “Pyramid" singer was “acting like a foreign artist” in the Philippines.
Charice drew flak from the entertainment press for reportedly snubbing them after the “1@11” concert at SM Mall of Asia.
Fans of the pint-sized chanteuse, collectively called the Chasters, lashed back at Diaz and vowed to boycott all his projects.
Diaz: I've already apologized
In a separate interview, Diaz maintained that he is still sorry if his opinions hurt or offended anyone but stressed that he already did his part to do what was right.
"I've done my part as a person to apologize. Kung ayaw pa din nila akong patawarin wala akong magagawa kasi opinion nila 'yon. Ako, ang point ko lang ay sinabi ko kung ano lang ang opinion ko," Diaz said.
Diaz, host of “Entertainment Live,” also denied making harsh comments against Charice’s mom. His denial came after his own mother became the target of harsh comments because of what he said against the young singer.
"Ang importante sa akin ngayon ay ang magandang relasyon ko sa sarili kong ina. Sa mga fan na galit pa din dahil sa opinion ko eh pakiyakap ang mga mommy nila para sa akin dahil naging mabuti silang anak," he said.
Diaz acknowledged that his public apology is not enough. He said he will personally apologize to Charice once they see each other.
Diaz already deleted all his tweets regarding the singer. He has more than 94,000 followers on Twitter.
