Matinee idol JC de Vera leaves GMA to become a ka-shake.

24-year-old JC de Vera signed a non-exclusive contract with TV5 to become one of the rising network’s roster of talents. JC’s contract with GMA has expired last March 14. His manager, Annabelle Rama, who had a feud with GMA executive Wilma Galvante, took the opportunity to pull him out from the primetime series “Panday Kids” and transfer him to TV5.

TV5 formally presented JC de Vera as one of their new talents to the media last March 17 at Mario’s restaurant on Tomas Morato, Quezon City.

JC said becoming a ka-shake is such “a relief” since he’s in the middle of the feud between his manager Annabelle Rama and kapuso boss Wima Galvante. However, He is grateful to GMA 7 for molding his showbiz career in 6 years.
