Apollo Accuses Charity of Tarnishing His Brand


Earlier this week Apollo Nida was accused by a non-profit organization of demanding $2,000 upfront to speak at their charity event when other celebrities were willing to do it for free [click here if you missed that].

Apollo speaks out against the allegations and accuses the organization of trying to tarnish his brand...

In a video posted on Youtube Apollo explains,
"They sent over the contract. Upon signing the contract is 50% deposit which is fully refundable if I don’t show and or if something happens where I can’t show. At that point the contract was never signed, no money was even exchanged and the next thing you know it’s going viral that Apollo is trying to run a scam on a charity foundation. That is totally false."
"The $2000? That was my fee for going. It wasn’t for profit. It was for lodging, for flight, for food, clothes etc…For someone to do this to me is complete erratic behavior."
"At the end of the day for you to try to mess up a brand like Nida Fitness...Apollo Nida is a brand. And so for you to say something so derogatory…No one has ever said Apollo has done bad business with them…At the end of the day I’m upset…I’ve done nothing wrong."
