Rico Blanco and Maris Racal must have sent their fans feeling giddy as the pair shared the stage for the first time since confirming their relationship.

The couple had their first performance together in the Sunday noontime variety show “ASAP Natin ‘To” yesterday, Sept. 5, as seen on the show’s YouTube channel on the same day.

The former Rivermaya frontman led the performance as he sang his own version of the theme song for the reality TV show “Pinoy Big Brother.”

Meanwhile, the actress danced to the tune of the song with her fellow “Pinoy Big Brother” alumni Loisa Andalio, Maymay Entrata, Edward Barber, Robi Domingo, Melai Cantiveros and Kim Chiu. Racal was one of the housemates in “Pinoy Big Brother: All In,” which ran from April to August 2014.

The couple were close to each other for a part of the performance. Fans were treated to Blanco singing while looking at Racal and the actress can be seen singing with him as well.

Racal confirmed her relationship with Blanco last May. Prior to this, the two have collaborated on several songs together such as “Abot Langit” in 2019 and “Not For Me” in 2020.

Racal’s song “Ate Sandali” which was released June was produced by Blanco. JB
