Will Angel Locsin Be Sued by Mother Lily?

Mother Lily to sue Angel Locsin?

Angel Locsin does not cease to become controversial. After leaving GMA 7 and moving to ABS-CBN, the actress is now being hounded by Regal Entertainment matriarch Lily Monteverde because of her (Angel’s) existing contract with the film company.

Mother Lily insists Angel shouldn’t have signed an exclusive contract with Star Cinema for movies, since Angel still has a contract to fulfill with Regal Entertainment. Angel’s two-year contract with ABS-CBN covers exclusivity also for her movies.

The Regal matriarch is so affected by this issue that during the press conference last Thursday for her latest movie "My Kuya’s Wedding," she shed tears when she obliged to comment on Angel Locsin after colleague Mario Bautista asked her about "this talent, who in the beginning was profusedly thanking her for trusting her (the talent)."

Yesterday, Mother Lily was set to meet with Malou Santos, the big boss of Star Cinema, so they can resolve Angel’s problem of signing up with the latter outfit. Mister Showbiz learned Mother Lily is not amenable to a joint venture with ABS-CBN’s film arm for Angel’s next movie.

Mother Lily admits earlier on that she felt bad when she learned about Angel’s film contract with Star Cinema. The Regal producer is threatening to file a damage suit against Angel once the actress starts to work on her Star Cinema project, without Mother Lily’s knowledge. But let’s trust that after Mother Lily’s meeting last night with Star Cinema, they should have arrived at an amicable decision favorable for both outfits.

Since ABS-CBN signed up Angel, the network lost no time in giving her projects. She was given a grand welcome in "ASAP ‘07." She was also fielded in several ABS-CBN shows for guesting stints, like "The Buzz," "Boy and Kris" and "Deal or No Deal."

Angel is also set to start taping soon for her first primetime series on ABS-CBN, "Taong Lobo," where she will be paired with Piolo Pascual. The story is penned by Ricky Lee and Cathy Molina will work at the helm of the series.

Angel and Piolo previously worked together in a TV commercial for a coffee drink and a billboard for a watch company. Piolo will also be Angel’s leading man in the latter’s first film project for Star Cinema.

Angel is endlessly thankful for the warm welcome she received from ABS-CBN, especially the grand party hosted for her in "ASAP ‘07," where she arrived in style – aboard a limousine and in a Rajo Laurel gown.
