Controversial Director Darryl Yap’s Blind Item Sparks Speculation on Male Actor

A blind item recently released by controversial director Darryl Yap on his Facebook account has become a hot topic on social media. The post hints at a male actor who was allegedly “booked” by an international singer, prompting widespread speculation among netizens about the actor’s identity.

Speculation on the Actor’s Identity

Many fans are connecting this blind item to the rumored breakup between Kim Chiu and Xian Lim, with some suggesting that Xian Lim might be the actor referenced by Direk Darryl. In his post, Darryl wrote:

“I know a male actor who was booked by an international singer who recently visited the country. They checked in for two nights at around 1 million per night. But who knows what they really did? Maybe they just sang ‘Unholy’ together.”

It’s widely known that the song “Unholy” is by Sam Smith, who recently performed in the Philippines.

Other Names Mentioned

In addition to Xian Lim, Kapuso actor Kelvin Miranda has also been mentioned as a potential candidate for the actor in question. This speculation was fueled by a clue provided by the director:

“When you compute the ‘FLAMES’ with the name of the INTERNATIONAL SINGER and NOT A KAPAMILYA ACTOR, ‘E’ will come out… E as in EKEDE, EKEDE MENELE.”

Darryl has clarified that he is not referring to Mark Bautista in his blind item.

Celebrity Reactions

Notable celebrities, including Aiko Melendez, have also expressed their curiosity about the identity of the actor mentioned in Darryl’s blind item. Aiko humorously remarked, “Darryl Yap, wow, director! You’ve got me thinking while I’m trying to sleep!”

Kelvin Miranda’s Response

Kelvin Miranda has addressed the speculation regarding his involvement in Darryl’s blind items. He shared his thoughts on his Facebook page but quickly deleted the post. However, many netizens managed to capture screenshots of his message.

He stated, “Everyone has their own opinions. I respect how people interpret these things. I don’t think Direk Darryl Yap is angry with me. He didn’t drop any names or anything… It’s just that people tend to associate my name with these rumors. I don’t really know them, right? And they don’t know me either.”

Conclusion

As the speculation continues to grow around Darryl Yap’s blind item, fans and followers remain eager to uncover the truth. The intertwining of celebrity lives and rumors always generates buzz, and this latest incident is no exception.
