MANILA, Philippines — Careless Music Chief Executive Officer James Reid revealed that it was Liza Soberano herself who decided to leave the talent agency.

In a report by ABS-CBN News, James said that Liza parted ways with the management due to different “career paths.”

“Decision niya. In all contracts and agreements I have with my artists, there’s a termination for convenience. You can leave as long as I agree, and nag-agree naman ako,” James said.

“We decided to make a statement because there were a lot of rumors na hindi na siya Careless. So we decided to release the statement just to confirm it, so there wouldn’t be any confusion,” he added.

James said that Careless Music focuses on careers in the Philippines, while Liza wants a Hollywood career.

“We have different, I guess, career paths. She’s more focused on her US career and going Hollywood, all of that. And mas focused kami sa Pilipinas,” he said.

“We’re really focused here in the Philippines… Well, I did help her a lot with the initial meetings with her co-management in the US, even with that first film. I introduced the director, but everything after that was really her,” he added.
