Darren Espanto admitted he admired the beauty of Cassie Legaspi the daughter of Carmina Villarroel and Zoren Legasp.

Espanto was performing his single “In Love Ako Sa ‘Yo,” on ‘Kris TV’ on Wednesday, January 21, 2015 where the young singer was asked by the host Ms. Kris Aquino if Cassie inspired him in singing the song.

Espanto has just smiled and told Kris that he and Cassie have not formally met each other, only he saw the twins when he was rehearsing for his number for “ASAP.”

“Actually po one time, dapat magkaparehas po kami ng dressing room. Pero nung natapos po ‘yung prod ko, umalis na din ako sa dressing room tapos doon na dumating sila Mavy and Cassie,” he said.

Shy but Espanto admitted she finds Cassie pretty.

“Hindi pa po [kami nagmi-meet]. Hindi ko pa rin po [siya nakikita sumayaw]. Nakita ko lang po siya sa rehearsals. I find her pretty po,” the young singer said.

Meanwhile, surprised mother of Cassie, Carmina Villarroel shared Kris during the show that it was her daughter Cassie told her that Darren will be one to perform as guest on “Kris TV” on Wednesday morning.

She wondered how she got to know that the young singer will be among the guests of the show. Cassie told her that she knew it on social media because some of the fans of Darren tags photos of him the reason she knew about it.

“Kasi sabi ko ‘Cassie, I have ‘Kris TV’ tomorrow.’ Sabi niya, ‘Oh so you’re going to be with Darren.’ Sabi ko, ‘Paano mo nalaman?’ Kasi pala ‘yung mga fans ni [Darren], tina-tag daw siya so nalaman na tuloy ng daughter ko,” she said.

The twins, Cassie and Mavie turned 14 this month, while the young singer, Espanto will celebrate his 14th birthday this coming May.
