Yap called the allegations "below the belt" and said, "Hindi po porke't nandoon ako sa party scene, hindi porke't nasa bars ako at sa events, e, ako po'y nagsu-supply. Hindi po totoo ito. For me, napakasakit, napaka-unfair."

He is a known partner of several high-end bars and clubs, including Valkyrie, Prive, and Gramercy. Yap clarified that he and other bar owners have already coordinated with the PNP and PDEA, and that no drugs are sold in his bars.
Meanwhile, other celebrities such as Luis Manzano, Enrique Gil, Jake Cuenca, and Diego Loyzaga voluntarily underwent drug testing, and have reportedly passed.
