🎤 FAMOUS SINGER BUGOY DRILON — THIS IS HIM NOW! IS HE STILL BANNED FROM ABS-CBN?

Once a rising star with a golden voice, Bugoy Drilon took the Philippine music scene by storm with his soulful performances and heartfelt ballads. Known for his powerful vocals and humble beginnings, Bugoy became a household name after joining a reality singing competition — winning hearts with not just his talent, but his authenticity.

But in recent years, fans have been asking: What happened to Bugoy Drilon?
Why did he suddenly disappear from mainstream media?
And more importantly — is he still banned from ABS-CBN?

The rumors began swirling after Bugoy became more vocal online, expressing his thoughts on various issues that some said may have “ruffled feathers” within the industry. Soon after, his presence on television dwindled. No more guestings. No more live appearances. He was missing in action.

Netizens speculated everything from personal issues to a supposed network ban.
But the truth? It’s both surprising and inspiring.

In a recent interview, Bugoy finally broke his silence.
“No, I was never officially banned from ABS-CBN,” he said with a calm smile. “I chose to step back. I needed to rediscover myself — not just as an artist, but as a person.”

He went on to reveal that he spent the last few years exploring different paths — from farming to environmental advocacy.
Yes, Bugoy Drilon, the once full-time singer, is now also a proud plant grower and advocate for sustainable living.
He found peace in nature, away from the lights, the pressure, and the constant noise of showbiz.

“Fame is beautiful,” he admitted, “but it can also drown you if you’re not grounded.”

Bugoy has continued to create and release songs independently. His Spotify streams are strong, and his YouTube covers gain thousands of views.
He has a loyal following who have stayed with him, appreciating the raw, unfiltered talent he still brings to every note.

As for his relationship with ABS-CBN?
“It’s always been good,” he clarified. “I owe them a lot. There’s no bad blood. If they invite me again, I’ll gladly return. But on my own terms, as my true self.”

Fans have since rallied behind him, praising his courage to choose authenticity over fame.
“He’s grown so much,” one fan wrote. “This is the best version of Bugoy yet.”

So — is he still banned? No.
Is he still a singer? Absolutely.
But more than that, Bugoy Drilon is a man who found his voice — not just through music, but through life.

And now that he’s back in the spotlight, he’s shining brighter than ever — not because of the fame, but because he’s finally singing for himself.
