A visibly-disappointed Denise Laurel revealed that she was canceled on by a certain content creator despite plans regarding their collaboration being made in advance.

Laurel took to her Tiktok account on Friday, April 5 to address her disappointment with the content creator whom she did not identify. She said she made time to “conceptualize and clear [her] schedule” only for their upcoming collaboration to be canceled at the last minute.

“Conceptualizing, clearing my schedule, calling my prod team, getting my makeup done… only to get canceled on right before the collab,” she wrote in the video.

Details on the collaboration, including the type of content that would be made, have yet to be disclosed by the actress.

Laurel’s video caught the attention of netizens in the comments, with some speculating who was behind the sudden cancellation.

One @yanggg!? asked the “Midnight Phantom” star if she was referring to Thai actor Win Metawin, who was recently in the Philippines for promotional activities for his upcoming film “Under Parallel Skies.” The actress, however, said it was not him.

Laurel also hinted that the cancellation was done by an international star when asked by another @simplyjhaycee if sisters Toni and Alex Gonzaga were behind the incident.

Meanwhile, Tiktok user @hmm.. hoped that Laurel would implement “contracts” to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.

“When it’s simple online collabs, it isn’t a common practice,” she said in response.
