Georgina Wilson mum after manager drops her as talent
MANILA – Model Georgina Wilson chose to keep mum following reports that she was dropped from manager Shirley Kuan's roster of talents.
Over the weekend, entertainment site Pep reported that Kuan has decided to drop the model as one of her talents after Samsung, a brand which Wilson endorses, went straight to the TV host instead of her to close a deal.
In an interview with reporters on Sunday, Wilson said she would rather not comment on the matter, saying, “I’ll have my lawyer comment on that.”
She only said that she and Kuan have already talked about what happened.
“I did [talk to her] yes, yesterday,” she said.
In the said Pep report which was published Saturday, Kuan was quoted as saying that she will file charges against Wilson and Samsung.
“Samsung is run by unprofessional executives. Their agent called my office for Georgina and we gave them the rate. Then Samsung went straight to Georgina and closed the deal. No wonder I did not hear back from their agent after we gave the rates. The nerve,” Kuan said.
Kuan also asked other people to pass on her statement so more people could know about Samsung’s “rude” and “uneducated” move.
Last Friday, Samsung launched Wilson as one of the brand ambassadors of Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge in an event held at the SM Mega Fashion Hall.
