She answered questions about the dance cover video and why she removed it in a recent interview in MarsAshley revealed, “Tinanggal ko, ako 'yung nagtanggal ‘nun.”

Did anyone encourage her to delete it?

She answered, “Ganito kasi ‘yun. ‘Yung 'Despacito' na ‘yan, I really loved that. Nakakainis kasi, kasi hanggang sa Bubble Gang, ayaw talaga nila akong tantanan. Biglang tinanggal siya because of copyright, sa music. So natanggal na siya, ayoko na i-upload ulit. Nag-viral na, okay na ‘yun.”

Ashley also elaborated that after a breakup, she felt she needed to get her life together so she deleted the video permanently.
