Vic Sotto Denies Involvement in Alleged “Humiliation” of Atasha Muhlach: “There’s No Truth to These Claims”
A brewing controversy has cast a shadow over the entertainment industry as rising star Atasha Muhlach became the subject of online rumors claiming she was “humiliated” by senior figures during her time on the iconic noontime show Eat Bulaga!. Among those names being mentioned in public speculation is long-time host Vic Sotto, prompting calls for clarification.
On Monday, Vic Sotto finally addressed the issue directly — and firmly denied all allegations.
Vic Sotto: “These Claims Are Baseless and I Am Not Involved”
Speaking briefly to the press after a taping session, Vic Sotto made a clear and composed statement:
“I want to set the record straight. These accusations of anyone humiliating Atasha are completely baseless. There was no such incident, and I have absolutely no involvement in whatever is being spread online.”
He continued by expressing frustration at how quickly misinformation gains traction on social media, especially when it affects the reputation of individuals who have worked hard to maintain professionalism in the industry.
“I respect Atasha as a colleague. She’s talented, respectful, and carries herself with grace. It’s unfortunate that her name is being dragged into something that simply did not happen.”
Rumors with No Proof
The rumors, which began as vague blind items on social media, soon exploded into larger speculation — with some claiming that Atasha was disrespected by one or more senior hosts of Eat Bulaga!. However, to date, no credible source has come forward with specific details, evidence, or a formal complaint.
Despite this, names like Joey de Leon and Vic Sotto have been mentioned — without any verification — leading to confusion and outrage from both fans and critics.
Vic Sotto’s direct denial aims to put an end to the speculation, especially regarding his alleged role. “There’s no issue between me and Atasha,” he added. “Let’s not turn fiction into fact.”
Atasha Remains Silent
Meanwhile, Atasha Muhlach has chosen not to comment publicly on the matter. Her silence has led to mixed interpretations: some believe she is avoiding unnecessary drama, while others wonder if she may eventually speak out.
Supporters have flooded her social media accounts with messages of support, encouraging her to stay strong amid the noise.
Conclusion
As of now, there is no verified information or official complaint to support the rumors of misconduct or humiliation directed toward Atasha Muhlach. Vic Sotto has made it clear that he was not involved in any such incident, and he strongly denied the validity of the claims.
In a time when online rumors can easily spiral out of control, it’s important to wait for facts — and to give people the dignity of truth, rather than trial by speculation.
