Filipino pop star and actress Nadine Lustre’s lawyer says they “welcome” a lawsuit filed by Viva Artists Agency over breach of contract.
As ABS-CBN News reports, the lawsuit was filed on Friday (December 11) at the Quezon City Regional Trial Court. It alleged that Lustre had violated her “valid and existing agency and management agreement … by contracting independently with advertisers, promoters, and other third parties, in utter disregard of the exclusivity of her contract”.
The lawsuit claims that Lustre is exclusively contracted to Viva Artists Agency – the talent management firm under the larger Viva Entertainment group – until 2029. In January 2020, Lustre announced she had “terminated” her contract with VAA and that she would be managing herself, which led VAA to threaten legal action.
