“Kaya siguro talagang napamahal siya sa Pinoy kaso hindi siya nagtagumpay,” Vasquez quipped with a laugh.

In the ‘Fast Talk’ segment of the show, Vasquez revealed that Hermosa is also his celebrity crush.

The conversation took another turn when Vasquez addressed rumors suggesting he is Indonesian. The speculation, which surfaced among netizens, took him by surprise.

“Nagugulat nga ako, TIto Boy, bigla akong naging Indonesian. But I’m super blessed and grateful na kumbaga whether I am from Indonesia, it is a representation of being an Asian,” he explained.

Despite the misinformation, Vasquez expressed his appreciation for the support he received from different nationalities.

“Nilaban nila ako, kumbaga they fought for what they really think na sa kanila,” he said.
