Although it appears that she has other reasons for leaving Sex Bomb, Jopay Paguia maintains she left the group because she wants to concentrate on her newly established food business.
“Malapit na namang mag-end ‘yung contract ko noon...[at] tinanong ko po kung okay lang po na hindi mag-renew kasi meron akong business na binuksan. Gusto ko pong mag-focus sa business. ‘yung mga food cart, mga siomai, shawarma,” Jopay said on "Juicy" on May 27.
Other Sex Bomb dancers who have left the group were Yvette, Daniel, Jackie Rivas and Cynthia.
Jopay says she has no manager now, although she considers talent manager Wyngard Tracy her mentor. She also explains she wants to concentrate more on acting than dancing.
“Last year pa hindi na ako sumasayaw. Sa ‘Daisy Siete’ kasi puro pag-arte na ‘yong ginagawa ko. Saka, ‘yun nga, feeling ko bumigat ako kasi hindi na ako sumasayaw.”
The Sex Bomb dancer likewise denied reports that her decision to leave the group was brought by their manager Joy Cancio’s late issuance of their talent fees and lack of equal opportunity.
“Hindi po. In fairness naman kay Ate Joy, mabait naman siya. Kung kaya niyang ibigay, gagawin niya, pati trabaho. Talagang ilulusong niya kami kahit saan. Madami na [rin] kasi kami ngayon. Kaya ako talaga umalis, gusto ko talagang mag-business. Tapos ten years na rin po ako. Gusto ko talaga na [mag-focus sa] acting ko.
“Kasi, siyempre, [sa] company ni Ate Joy, magkakapatid kami dito. Kumbaga, hindi lang kami guest lang. Ito naman talaga ‘yung bahay namin. ‘Yung question sa sahod namin, naibibigay naman po. Late lang po. Siguro matagal po siya pero binibigay naman ni Ate Joy. [At] may iba pa kaming show sa kanya, ‘di ba? Pero ‘yung sa teleserye namin, alam naman po namin na hindi agad ibibigay ‘yon. Walang question para sa amin ‘yon.”
Jopay just shrugged off the seemingly endless rumor that she’s not seeing eye to eye with Sex Bomb frontliner Rochelle Pangilinan.
“Palagi kaming pinag-aaway. Nagsasawa na kami. Ang tampuhan kasi sa grupo, lalo na’t puro babae kami, hindi maiiwasan ‘yon. ‘Pag may tampuhan, nagsasabi na kaagad kami, parang mali ‘yung ginawa mo.”
She even said that she and Rochelle continue to communicate even when she’s no longer part of the dance group. “Meron pa rin naman. Ngayon kasi sobrang busy siya lalo na ‘yong teleserye niya, tapos may mga shows pa siya. Eh, ako kasi, anytime tawagan mo ako.”
Right now, Jopay admits she’s not ready to a square off with Rochelle.
“Ay, hindi ko siya kayang tapatan. Rochelle is Rochelle. Rochelle na po ‘yan. ‘Pag nawala siya sa Sex Bomb, mababalewala na ang Sex Bomb.”
