Dustin Yu addresses past links to Ivana Alawi, Kira Balinger

Dustin Yu clarified his thoughts on fellow "Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition" housemate Kira Balinger and house guest Ivana Alawi, who were both linked to him inside Bahay ni Kuya.

On "Fast Talk with Boy Abunda" on Thursday, the actor said Ivana was his "happy crush" even before he entered showbiz.

"S'yempre, lagi ko siyang nakikita sa social media. Ito pa 'yung sobrang peak talaga eh," Dustin said. "I mean, lahat naman siguro na-a-attract kay Ms. Ivana."

When Dustin learned that Ivana would also be part of PBB, he turned shy.

"Tapos 'yung mga housemates, niloloko ako. Pinipilit nila 'ko, pinagtitripan nila 'ko," Dustin said.

Meanwhile, Dustin called Kira "a great woman."

"Lahat naman kami na housemates, sinasabi na Kira is magandang, matalinong babae," Dustin said. "Pero never ako nagkagusto sa kanya kasi kay Josh [Ford] 'yun eh."

Kira and Josh formed one of the popular ships in PBB Collab 1.0. They were called KiSh after their duo name.

Dustin, meanwhile, admitted his feelings for Bianca De Vera during their stay. They later formed the duo DusBi and they were known as as popular ship DustBia in the outside world.

During the PBB Big Tapatan, Dustin and Bianca were grilled by the eliminated housemates about their relationship. Dustin was linked to Ivana during her guesting and he previously called Kira "girlfriend material."

Dustin and Bianca are set to hold the "DustBia Love, Actually" fan meet at the New Frontier Theater in Quezon City on August 8. —Nika Roque/MGP, GMA News
