Brilio.net - Lately, social media has been rocked by a drug and sex trafficking case involving rapper Sean John Combs or commonly known as P Diddy. Amidst the chaos of the case, international singer Agnez Monica or Agnez Mo has suddenly become a topic of conversation among netizens.

This is not because Agnez Mo was involved in the case. But Agnez Mo revealed the darkness of the music industry in Hollywood. Through her podcast with Daniel Mananta a few years ago, Agnez Mo told in detail how musicians and singers in Hollywood market their songs or works.

This conversation began when Agnez Mo promoted her latest song, Overdose. During the promotion, Agnez was offered to promote the song through a club. However, because it did not match Agnez's beliefs, Agnez Mo did not do it.

" People or my fans don't know about this Overdose promo. They promote it at strip clubs (naked dancing). According to them, it's okay, it's part of the promotion. I don't want to judge them, because that's their responsibility to God ," said Agnez, quoted by brilio.net from YouTube @Daniel Mananta Network, Friday (27/9).

As a singer who was just starting her career in Hollywood entertainment, Agnez promoted her song through radio in the United States. " At that time I promoted Overdose on radio in New York. There were 3 strip clubs that wanted you to come for only 30 minutes. So she said walk through ," she added.

Agnez also added that when the singer in question or doing promotion comes, the DJ in the club will play the singer's song. From the promotion, the singer gets a profit of 25 USD or equivalent to Rp377 million.

" So you just come, the DJ plays your song, you're there as a host, then you go home. You just need to be there, 1 strip club 25 USD (Rp 377 MILLION). 25 thousand, 3 strip clubs in 1 night for only 30 minutes ," said Agnez.

Despite getting a tempting profit, Agnez Mo firmly rejected the offer offered. Getting a rejection from Agnez Mo, the party offering the promo was certainly quite surprised.

" Do you know the faces people make when I say, 'Sorry, I can't do that'. Their faces were like, 'Wait a minute, what?'. Because it makes them like, 'what? Ag, it's 75 thousand dollars and you say no?' Because for them it's like work ," he added.

There was an offer that Agnez thought was unreasonable, she did not criticize the song promotion done by other singers. Agnez dared to refuse because it was not in accordance with her life principles. Even after rejecting the promotion, Agnez did not regret the opportunity.

" Again, I'm not judging, that's you. That's your life but that's not me, that's not who I am. Not just for my life, but about my music career ," he said.

Agnez's refusal regarding the promotion of the song also drew various comments from netizens. Many praised Agnez's struggle as very meaningful to become an international singer.

" Oh my God, I'm going to cry. I just found out how hard Agnez's struggle is to pursue a career in the US ," commented the account @danuelsegala5978.
