Elias Pushes Forward with Global Plans Amid Controversy: Strategic Meeting Held with Paduk Entertainment and ABS-CBN Global
Amid ongoing online controversy involving his talent manager Beverly Pumicpic Labadlabad and common-law wife Abegail Cariquitan, fast-rising Filipino artist Elias Lintucan also known as Elias J.TV remains unfazed, focusing instead on what he calls the “bigger picture” of his global artistic journey. This week, Elias joined key figures from Paduk Entertainment and ABS-CBN Global for a meaningful and productive dinner meeting in Manila, setting the stage for his upcoming U.S. tour and forging stronger ties for future international collaborations.
Held in an intimate yet strategic setting, the meeting brought together industry minds to fine-tune plans for Elias’s shows in North America, with confirmed targets including California and Hawaii—two strongholds of the Filipino diaspora and key markets for global Filipino entertainment. The conversation also opened exciting possibilities for future tours, media appearances, and cross-cultural artistic partnerships.
"I know there’s a lot of noise right now, but I’m choosing to stay grounded in what truly matters—my music, my audience, and the amazing opportunities ahead. I’m grateful for the trust and vision of Paduk Entertainment and ABS-CBN Global. Together, we’re building something that goes beyond headlines," said Elias.
Also in attendance were Mr. Al Gomez, international tour director for Paduk Entertainment, and Ms. Rowena Cruz, senior regional partnerships lead at ABS-CBN Global. Both executives expressed optimism about Elias’s upcoming tour and their shared commitment to elevating Filipino artistry on the world stage.
“Elias is a rare talent. His passion and professionalism speak louder than any controversy. We’re excited to bring his music to global audiences starting with this U.S. tour,” said Mr. Gomez.
“Our collaboration with Elias marks an important step in ABS-CBN Global’s mission to amplify Filipino voices worldwide. The energy and integrity he brings to the table are exactly what the industry needs,” added Ms. Cruz.
While online chatter continues to surround Elias’s personal life, his focus remains locked on his growing international career. This recent meeting signaled not just an event in planning, but a united front among stakeholders determined to navigate through challenges with class and clarity.
With strong backing, a clear vision, and an ever-growing fan base, Elias is ready to bring world-class entertainment to global audiences—proving that real artistry rises above the noise.
