Christian Bautista on his favorite memory with former Philippine president Noynoy Aquino: "So it was a night na kantahan lang and jamming. It was a nice atmosphere, it was very relaxed, and I won't' forget that."

Isa sa mga malalapit na mang-aawit sa dating pangulong Benigno "Noynoy" Aquino III ang Asia's Romantic Balladeer na si Christian Bautista.

Matatandaang kabilang si Christian sa mga nag-perform sa inauguration ni Noynoy bilang ika-labinlimang pangulo ng Republika ng Pilipinas noong June 2010.

Sa panayam ni Nelson Canlas sa Kapuso singer sa isang virtual interview ngayong araw, June 24, ibinahagi ni Christian na isa ito sa mga hindi niya makakalimutang pangyayari kasama ang dating pangulo.

Bahagi ni Christian, "We were invited sa Malacañang as OPM with Sir Ogie Alcasid, Sir Gary Valenciano way back.

"And after the program when everyone was going home, an aide went to me and said, 'Is it okay if you guys stay a little bit more?' Sabi ko, 'Bakit po?'

"Kung puwedeng magkantahan daw kayo lahat, mag-jamming lang. Sabi ko, 'Ah okay, sure, let's jam.

"So it was a night na kantahan lang and jamming and it was a nice atmosphere, it was very relaxed and I won't forget that."

Nagpahayag din ng pakikiramay si Christian sa pamilya ng naiwan ng yumaong pulitiko.

Aniya, "I am praying for the family. I wish them comfort and peace that our former president is in a better place.

"I pray that also this time, we may be united in honoring his legacy and memory as well and that we may always remember the good he has done for all of us."

Pumanaw si Noynoy ngayong Huwebes, June 24, sa edad na 61. Base sa mga ulat, isinugod sa Capitol Medical Center sa Quezon City ang anak nina dating senador Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr. at dating pangulong Corazon “Cory” Aquino.

Mula 2019 ay nakikipaglaban si Noynoy sa sakit. Sumailalim siya sa dialysis at kamakailan ay nagkaroon ng heart operation.
