Diether Ocampo Lilipat na sa GMA7 Kapuso Network?

Nabasa ko kanina sa column ni Ricky Lo na lilipat na raw sa GMA 7 Kapuso network si Diether Ocampo. Isa sa top leading men sa ABS-CBN Kapamilya Network si Diet, katunayan kakatapos lang ng “Iisa pa Lamang” na pinagbidahan nya kasama ang ilang malalaki ring pangalan sa bakod ng ABS-CBN tulad ni Gabby Concepcion, Susan Roces, Joel Torre, Claudine Baretto, Angelica Panganiban, Cherry Pie Picache at Jestoni Alarcon.

Nagpadala ng text message ang PEP.Ph sa SVP for Entertainment TV ng GMA 7 na si Wilma Galvante upang tanungin ang status at kung may katotohanang pumirma si Diether sa Kapuso Network. “Let Diether make his own announcement soon” ang tanging sinagot sa kanila.

Ayon sa ulat, pumirma ng maximum 4-year contract (opo sagad pati pato) si Diether sa GMA7 noong gabi ng lunes, November 17, 2008. Unang magiging project ni Diether daw sa Kapuso channel ay ang adaptation ng hit Koreanovela “All About Eve”, kasama si Sunshine Dizon, Iza Calzado, dating kapamilyang si Eula Valdez, Jean Garcia at Richard Gomez.

Nagpaalam naman daw ang Star Circle Batch 2 Member Diether Ocampo sa mga Bigwig ng ABS-CBN. Magkikita-kita na sila ng mga dating kapamilya turned kapuso na sila Paolo Contis, Camille Prats, Jolina Magdangal, Marvin Agustin at ang bagong lipat na si Heart Evangelista.
