KC Concepcion on Piolo Pascual

KC and Piolo

After coming from Uganda as a UN ambassadress KC was asked by reporters about her and Piolo Pascual but she said that it is better to ask the later about them because she said that she is always in the hot seat. KC is not vocal about their rumored relationship. KC said that it was her mum Sharon Cuneta who was always in contact with her while she was in Uganda.

KC said that it is better to ask Piolo because a relationship or friendship must come from both person not just one.
Here is the complete News about her from Push:

Ambassador for the World Food Program (WFP) KC Concepcion kept mum about her rumored sweetheart Piolo Pascual’s reaction to her meaningful yet risky mission to Uganda last week. She also refused to disclose whether they had the chance to meet after her trip. Clearly, the young actress is sticking to her resolution to keep a low profile when it comes to her relationship with the country’s ultimate heartthrob. “Siya na lang kaya tanungin ni’yo [kung paano niya ako winelcome pagbalik ko dito sa Manila]. Tignan natin kung anong sagot niya dun,” she said in an interview with ABS-CBN reporters yesterday, January 26.

According to KC, it doesn’t feel right for her to be in the hot seat most of the time. “Parang siguro bilang host din ako, and may talk show ako, nagkakataon na ako lagi yung tinatanong at ako lagi yung nakakasagot ng mga tanong dahil ako yung nakakausap at nakikita ninyo, habang siya nasa Subic nagte-taping sa Noah.” She further explained that it would be nice if people would know Piolo’s side of the story as well. “Maganda din siguro na a friendship or a relationship between two people is between two people, not just one. Maganda rin na ma-remind siya at ma-remind kayo na hindi lang ako ang nasa friendship na ’to.”

In the meantime, she clarified that it was her mom Sharon Cuneta with whom she was in constant communication during her stay in Uganda. “With my mom bilang mommy ko naman siya, dahil siya ang may karapatan malaman kung nasaan ako.”

As for her continuous efforts to help WFP’s fight against hunger in the Philippines, KC Concepcion invited everyone to support her online charity auction, KC’s Closet, which has already raised over a hundred thousand pesos for the past two weeks. The luxury items which are currently available include several Louis Vuitton bags and designer gowns which KC wore in various celebrity functions.

Piolo Pascual wants to be taken seriously as a singer

Piolo Pascual

Piolo Pascual is not only an actor but a singer too. I like his voice and love his music although some of them are revivals. Piolo Pascual will serenade his fans this coming February 14, 2011 together with Ryan Cayabyab. The show is entitle "Piolo meets the Maestro Ryan Cayabyab". The heartthrob will be sing the ballad arrangement of Ryan.

Piolo Pascual is thankful because after these years his fans are still there. He sings in the Philippines and abroad and released album almost every year. He said that want to be a serious singer too.

Here is the complete article about this taken from Push:

Piolo Pascual is set to serenade his fans this Valentine’s Day at his major concert entitled Piolo meets the Maestro Ryan Cayabyab on February 14 at the PICC Plenary Hall. The Ultimate Heartthrob will be performing some of the most loved ballads arranged by renowned composer/musician Ryan Cayabyab. Piolo said he is just thankful that in the years that he’s been doing concerts here and abroad and releasing studio albums, the support of his fans has remained unwavering. “I’ve just released my seventh album. Halos every year yata nagre-release ako ng album. Modesty aside, naging okay naman ‘yung response ng tao. Siguro I’ve been more exposed abroad. Average of four or five shows ang ginagawa ko abroad in a year. Ten years na akong nagto-tour abroad.”

Piolo started out in showbiz as an actor/model. It was only in the early 2000s after he became a mainstay on the musical variety show ASAP did he discover that he could actually sing. Together with his then all male group The Hunks which included Diether Ocampo, Jericho Rosales, Carlos Agassi, and Bernard Palanca, he would do concerts around the country and other parts of the globe, which were all sold-out events. Piolo continued his venture into music by recording one album after another.

But does Piolo really want to be taken seriously as a singer, or is music just a pastime he enjoys doing on the side? He explained that given the massive support from fans for his albums and concerts over the past years, he will continue to take music very seriously. “I’m more known as an actor but with the chance that I’m given, to perform live in front of people, I don’t want to limit myself. If I can sing in ASAP and in shows abroad, I’ll do what I can do. I’ll do what I feel is best for me. I can’t say how I want to be viewed in terms of music. But I’ll keep doing this as long as there are producers out there who want me to do an album or a concert and of course people who want to listen and watch me.”

However, Maestro Ryan pointed out one obstacle that his hindering Piolo from proving to the public that he can really sing. Based on Ryan’s experience doing concerts with Piolo Pascual in the past, the audience, most especially the ladies, would rather swoon over the handsome man than listen to his voice. “Ang hirap kasi sa mga artistang katulad ni Piolo, paglabas pa lang sa stage, magtitilian na lahat ng tao. Wala ka nang maririnig sa kanta kasi puro tilian na lang hanggang matapos ‘yung show. All the ladies umaakyat na ng stage para magpa-picture. We’re talking about seven thousand people. Dati nga nakita ko ‘yung expression sa mukha ni Piolo, ‘Mr. C, itutuloy pa ba natin ito?’ So, I want to present him as a singer-performer. Gusto ko makita talaga ng mga tao ang talent niya sa performing.”

Piolo Pascual Reacts to Phil Younghusband's crush on KC

Piolo Pascual was asked about his opinion with regards to Askal's Phil Younghusband feeling towards KC Concepcion during the Showbiz News Ngayon. He said that he has nothing against his feeling because everyone is entitled to his own feeling. We all know that Piolo and KC are closed to each other but none of them said that they are officially a couple.

Piolo Pascual was also asked by some reporters about his opinion regarding the kissing scene of KC and Sam Milby. But he said that they can do it because she is an actress and it is a part of work. KC on the other hand affirmed what Piolo had said.

Piolo and KC has done "Love in Paris" before together with Zanjoe Marudo.

Here is the news about this taken from ABS-CBN:


MANILA, Philippines – Hunk actor Piolo Pascual has given his reaction to Azkals heartthrob Phil Younghusband's public declaration that he has a crush on actress KC Concepcion.
In an interview with “Showbiz News Ngayon” during the unveiling of the QuattroMondial monument at the University of Sto. Tomas on Thusday, Pascual disclosed that he does not have anything against Younghusband since anybody is entitled to his or her own feelings.
“I guess anybody is entitled to that. Hindi naman mapipigilan ang mga tao to express their intention or say what they feel. May security naman so wala tayong problema,” he said.
Although they never admitted that they are officially a couple, Pascual and Concepcion have been vocal about their closeness.

Piolo Pascual, meanwhile, belied reports saying that he is prohibiting Concepcion from doing a kissing scene with actor Sam Milby in their upcoming movie.
“That’s work. She can do anything. She’s an actress,” he said.
Concepcion, on the other hand, affirmed what Pascual said.
“I don’t think that’s true. Very dedicated si Piolo sa work niya bilang aktor. Bakit niya kailangan ma-affect. Si PJ pa, napakasensible na tao,” she said.
Concepcion and Milby are set to do a movie under the direction of Cathy Garcia-Molina.
