Ahmad Idham was responding to a statement issued by Fazura, issued through her management at Universal Music Malaysia, where she called on Astro to clear the air and admit it was a “surprise gimmick” initiated by the production to bring him onstage to present the Jury Special Award at FFM30. “Our side is discussing with Finas to study the matter, so it is inappropriate to comment further on what transpired.”, insisted that there was no such agreement for Fattah to present the award together with his wife.
“I understand a lot of members of the arts community as well as the media were uneasy with the decision for Fattah to take the stage in this manner, as it shows disrespect for a national event like this.”“The production has disrespected Finas, when in truth we were the ones who paid for the production.He also called on Hans and Fazura to quit bickering publicly until a full report from Astro was received, as it was unhealthy and both parties could be victims of the situation.
Hans refuses to apologise, saying Fazura was the one who made his personal messages as a friend public. — Picture from Instagram/hansisaac “What I messaged her, was between us. We have been friends for 18 years and I am surprised and taken aback she the media would get a whiff of our conversation.”
