2024 FAMAS Awards

[1] FAMAS President, Francia Conrad apologized to Eva Darren: "they were not able to “locate” her because they were “running a live show with myriads of people,” she said.

Darren was tasked but failed to present Special Citations with Tirso Cruz III, after she received a notice of invitation for the FAMAS awards night", Fernando de la Pena, her son said.

A "young singer" Sheena Palad replaced Darren, who paid P5,000 ($90) per plate for her 4 grandchildren.

[2][3] On May 28, Darren and her family decided to accept the olive branch of FAMAS organizers for the incomprehensible irresponsible snub.

"Please stick to the script… and maybe a nice pair of eyeglasses for all in charge,” Darren's son Fernando recommended.
