HEARD that megastar Sharon Cuneta and daughter KC Concepcion have forgiven Billy Crawford after his apology on national TV.

The Fil-Am international star was said to have caught the ire of the mother and daughter after he was quoted to have said “KC is a good kisser. ”

While he looked really sincere with his apology, KC still turned down his invitation to watch his “It's Time” concert at the Araneta Coliseum on October 6.

Meanwhile, Filipino fans will savor the songs that made Billy an international young Filipino singer in the concert. Right now, Billy is based in LA, with a big dream before he gets married— to put up his own recording company, to write songs for foreign singers and to establish a name in the mainstream international music scene.

Billy's repertoire will include high- energy songs, from hip-hop to pop including “Bright Lights,” “When You Think About Me,” ”Never My Love,” “Steamy Nights,” and “Trackin'. ” He is joined by the best performers in the land like Jay R, Karylle and Kris Lawrence. Billy himself will host the show, perform with French choreographer Maryss and the Movers, Aizel Moneva, Jobel Dayrit, Daniel Agbisit, AJ Sarate, Darcy Godoy, Mich Garong, and JM Vergara, the group who won in the reality-dance contest “Move. ” To direct the show is international director Gabriel Hoareau who directed the opening and closing ceremonies of the Athens Olympic in 2004.

Billy is proud to be Pinoy who never forgot his native tongue despite international exposure. He was an NRJ Music Awards (Cannes, France) recipient of Best Newcomer of the Year (2002) and International Male Artist of the year (2003) as well as Eastwood Walk of Fame Recipient (2007).

IYA SAFE WITH VHONG

EVEN if Vhong Navarro is known to be a ladies' man, partner Iya Villania is sure safe with him, at least as a leading man in ABS-CBN's most ambitious project, “Lastikman. ”

It is also known that Iya's BF, Drew Arellano, is Vhong's best friend.

Meanwhile, Iya still finds time from her busy schedule to further her studies at De La Salle University taking up AB Psychology. She is also enrolled at ACSAT taking up a culinary course.
