  (UPDATE) Zack Tabudlo recently made headlines following his recognition of being Spotify’s most-streamed local artist. Barely two weeks into his achievement, his name once again made rounds on social media. This time, in a not so good light.
  
  In a now-deleted Facebook post, a certain Gayle Oblea claimed that the 20-year-old slammed the door at an unnamed Event Head when asked to perform fifteen minutes earlier than his original schedule.

  “Pinakiusapan na umakyat na sya cause they’re all waiting for him, he shouted 10:15 pa sya sabay bagsak ng pintuan,” Oblea narrates. 

  Tabudlo’s alleged discourtesy, however, did not end there as he reportedly walked out after having been called out by the crowd for his attitude. Purportedly, even the host sarcastically commented, “Grabe po guys! Grabe ang TINDIII… ang tindi ng talent!”

  Netizen’s React

  Tabudlo’s fans, on the other hand, were quick to defend the singer-songwriter. Here’s what they said:

  Not defending – these ppl be mad to zack tabudlo, its his right to refuse naman e kasi 10:15 sched niya right? Di man aq maggalit sa kaniya kasi pangit din ugali q HAHA maybe u forget, tao lang din yang mga artists na yan.

  LANY enabler? bakit sold out con niya sa ph? hypocrites

  Zack Tabudlo is rude?
  That’s her story.
  That’s her truth but that doesn’t mean that’s the truth. There are always two sides to every story.
  Besides, 10:15 is 10:15. It’s his right to refuse!

  Ang dami pa pwedeng gawin sa 15mins!😉

  The other side of the story

  Meanwhile, Tabudlo patriarch, Rj Villar Tabudlo, denied the accusations and said that the misunderstanding came from Tabudlo’s new road manager.

  “Bago kasi road manager ni zack that day kaya sya dapat mag binigay ng instructions kay zack if dapat ba lumabas na ng holding area kaso di nya sinabihan si zack so nagulat kami na nag intro na pala ang band ni zack ng wala kaming ka alam alam na nag sisimula na show,” he wrote.
  
  He also maintained that there’s no truth to the contention that his son was bashed, hence the walkout. “Yung sa sinasabi naman na nag walk out daw si zack kasi nag boo mga tao impossible din kasi the event is online there are 50 people lang sa  loob na nanunuod and nikikipag lokohan pa si zack sakanila and nag ask sino ang broken hearted may tinuro sila na boss ata nila sabi pa ni zack para sayo song na to ang nag tatawanan lahat and nag enjoy…”

  Moreover, he then challenged the accuser to release a video or recording to back up Tabudlo’s attitude problem claim. As they have secured proof of the conversation between the Event Organizer and Artist Manager apologizing about Tabudlo’s Road Manager oversight.

  “Now ako naman mag hahamon dun sa nag post about this issue kay zack mag labas ka video or recording na ginawa ni zack yan ha wag puro kwentong lang please pati yung sinabi mo na tumawag manager ni zack sa organizer because of zacks bad behavior,” Tabudlo’s father continued.

  This was further affirmed by Tabudlo’s record label, UMusic Philippines, who issued an official statement on Monday evening, December 12.
