In his official Twitter account, Padilla also said he heard some artists from a rival network who are making fun of the way he sings.
"Okay lang actually kasi wala naman kamukha ang boses ko, very unique ang boses ko. May Araneta ba sila, hindi ba?" Padilla said in a press conference for his upcoming birthday concert at Araneta Coliseum this April 30.
"Sabi ko nga hindi man sa ako ay nagyayabang kasi may kapwa ako artista hindi taga dito sa ABS-CBN na inaasar ang boses ko. Gusto ko sabihin, 'bakit may double platinum (award) ba kayo?' Pero huwag na lang natin pag-usapan 'yon. Pabayaan natin 'yon," he added.
Padilla, who has been receiving negative comments in social media, stressed that he is just thankful that he has many fans, who are supporting him.
"Masaya talaga. Hindi pa din ako makapaniwala. Nagpapasalamat ako sa lahat ng sumusuporta, sa inyong lahat po, salamat," he said.
'I'm no Justin Bieber'
In the interview, Padilla also reacted to those who are comparing him to international pop superstar Justin Bieber.
"Salamat pero hindi ako nakikinig ng ganoon. Kasi talaga old soul ako, ayaw ko ng ganoong music. Mga luma talaga 'yung gusto ko pero hindi dahil sa hindi ko gusto," he said.
"Malayo ako kay Bieber. Hindi ko lang siya gusto. Siyempre may mga tao naman tayo na hindi ini-idolo. Alam niyo naman ako eh lumang tao," Padilla added.
Asked if there's a chance he would perform a Bieber song in his concert, Padilla replied: "Sorry, hindi talaga."
