MANILA, Philippines -- After asking her French suitor, Pierre Emmanuel Plassart, for space, host-actress KC Concepcion is now linked to another foreigner, this time an NBA player.
Since Monday, "Kris TV" host Kris Aquino has been teasing Concepcion, a guest co-host on the morning talk show, about an unnamed basketball player.
On Tuesday, Aquino hinted that the man linked to Concepcion is a member of the Houston Rockets.
"Sinabi mo na ang Houston Rockets may laro today? Wala namang masama kung may laro sila. If they win, may chance pa silang tumuloy. Kung matalo, tanggal na, babu. So, darating na siya rito kung matalo," Aquino told Concepcion, drawing cheers from the studio audience.
Concepcion smiled and replied: "Ay, ano ba yan? Friends, friends. Fun fun lang."
Filipino netizens have been talking about Concepcion's connection with Houston Rockets player Chandler Parsons after the two were seen exchanging "tweets" on the microblogging site Twitter over the past months.
