Billy Crawford flew to the United States Wednesday to do a series of shows with Sarah Geronimo. The Filipino American singer will be staying there for 45 days to do a total of 14 shows with the pop princess. He will return to the country in time for his May 23 concert with Akon.

Although napapabalitang may namumuong relasyon between him and his co-Pinoy Dream Academy host Nikki Gil, Crawford has chosen to keep mum on the real score between them despite their public displays of affection on and off the camera.

Pero ang dahilan ba nito ay dahil they want to keep their relationship private or dahil totoong kasal pa daw si Crawford sa kanyang dating choreographer and dancer na si Maryss from Paris?

Kung maaalala ng lahat, after being gone from the Philippines for 15 years, Crawford came back to do a major concert "It's Time" sa Araneta Coliseum last October 2007. Kasama sa kanyang crew noon ang isang pretty French dancer na si Marie Courchinoux (more popularly known as Maryss from Paris) na nakilala ni Crawford during his Big City Tour. Although people speculated then that the two were an item, Crawford would continually deny that there was nothing more but a professional relationship existing between them.

Rumors that she and Crawford had broken up surfaced after Maryss left for the United States after the concert. Now, she continues to be a popular dancer and choreographer, having performed live with international artists like Chris Brown, Justin Timberlake, and Missy Elliot, as well as doing commercials for various popular brands.

But during a recent interview with PacificRim Video, inamin ni Maryss that she is married to a half-Filipino whom she met in Paris and that she has visited the country on more than one occasion already. She also admitted that the reason she understands and speaks Tagalog is because her mother-in-law talks to her in the language. Whether or not si Crawford ang itinutukoy niyang asawa niya ay hindi explicitly implied, pero kasalukuyang naka-update ang impormasyong ito sa Wikipedia entry ni Crawford.

Is this the reason why Crawford would rather be vague about him and Gil or nagkataon lang na same nationality siya ng unnamed husband ni Maryss? Sana ay masagot ng singer ang mga katanungang ito pagbalik niya sa kanyang shows sa Amerika.
