The tension is heating up between two of the most beloved TV personalities in the Philippines — Luis Manzano and Billy Crawford. In a turn of events no one saw coming, Billy took to social media and called Luis “sira ulo” (crazy) in what appeared to be a playful jab… or was it?

Now, Luis Manzano is breaking his silence, and his reaction is turning heads online!

📱 The Post That Started It All

It all began when Billy Crawford posted a cryptic Instagram story with a video clip from an old variety show episode where he and Luis were joking around. The caption?

“Hahaha Sira ulo talaga ‘tong si Luis!”

At first glance, it seemed harmless — two longtime friends teasing each other. But the comment section went wild, with fans debating whether the tone was too harsh, or if it hinted at deeper issues behind the scenes.

🤔 Netizens Ask: Joke or Hidden Shade?

Online reactions ranged from amused to alarmed:

“Haha, classic Luis and Billy banter!”

“Wait, why did Billy sound kind of annoyed?”

“This doesn’t sound like a joke anymore…”

Some fans pointed out that the two haven’t been seen together in public or shows recently — prompting speculation that the once-tight friendship may have cooled off.

💬 Luis Manzano Speaks Out

Not one to stay silent when things go viral, Luis Manzano finally responded — and his words were as clever as they were telling:

“Ay grabe… sira ulo rin ‘tong si Billy! But I still love you, bro — kahit minsan gusto kitang sabunutan.”

The comment was posted on Luis’ own Instagram, with a smiling selfie and the hashtag #BrothersStillButCarefulNow — a statement that both calmed and confused fans.

Was Luis brushing it off? Or was there a little sting behind the humor?

🎤 Industry Insiders Weigh In

One showbiz insider revealed:

“They’ve had small disagreements before, especially about work commitments and hosting gigs. This might just be one of those small bumps… or it could blow up.”

Another pointed out that since Billy’s return from France and his career shift, his dynamics with former co-hosts have changed.

🔥 What’s the Real Story?

While fans are still divided, one thing’s certain — this interaction has reignited conversations about celebrity friendships, loyalty, and the fine line between “friendly shade” and actual beef.

Whether this ends in a big laugh or a real falling out, the Luis-Billy showdown has proven just how quickly things can spiral in the world of social media — and how even a simple phrase like “sira ulo” can set the internet on fire. 🔥

Billy jokingly calls Luis ‘crazy’: ‘Change your mind now that you have a baby coming!’
Billy Crawford and partner French dancer Fauve Hautot were named grand winners in the grand finals of “Danse avec les stars (Dance With The Stars)” in France, which took place last Friday night, November 11 in that country, and Saturday morning here in the Philippines on November 12.

Therefore, showbiz colleagues and friends as well as netizens immediately congratulated Billy Boy who is truly a “Philippine Pride”, just like his always hosting buddy when he was still at ABS-CBN, Luis Manzano.

“Congrats @billycrawford for winning Dancing with the stars! Proud of you!” Luis said in the caption of the Instagram post.

However, netizens took a second look because the photo he attached seemed to be a throwback photo.

That’s it, they are just their “doppelgangers” or look-alikes.

This was sold to their celebrity friends and netizens.

“When you order lucky and billy from wish. com”.

“Anlala!”

“Where is the justice? Hahaha.”

This eventually reached Billy’s attention and he commented on Luis.

“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha you are really crazy paps! Change your mind now that you have a child,” Billy said.

Luis and Billy worked together as co-hosts on ABS-CBN’s “Pilipinas Got Talent” (PGT).
