Yeng Constantino not moving to GMA 7

Yeng Constantino has finally put an end to the 2-week rumor that she's
moving to GMA 7 because she's allegedly unhappy with her limited
exposure on ABS-CBN.

On Twitter, Yeng has strongly denied she's transfering to the Kapuso network and assured her fans she's staying with ABS-CBN, which she
considers as her home.

"DI PO AKO LILIPAT SA KABILA... :) ABS-CBN is my home... :) thank you...oks na po?," Yeng said her Twitter followers.

Notice the bold letters...which means the rumor is very untrue and she
definitely abhors the idea.

Yeng, who currently hosts Music Uplate Live and performs on ASAP XV, is a homegrown ABS-CBN talent, as the 1st Grand Star Dreamer of Pinoy Dream Academy. She's also the singer-composer of the timeless hit
"Hawak Kamay".
