Time For Some Decouplings?

Recently, eating lunch as the household help watched Eat Bulaga in the background, and with another AlDub event on the horizon apparently, I came to realize just how creatively stifling the local phenomenon of “love teams” truly is.
I understand this is what the masses want, whether it be AlDub, KathNiel, or JaDine. In the past, it was Claudine/Rico, Bojo/Mylene, Bobby/Angelu, Aga/Lea, Juday/Wowie, Romnick/Sheryl, Lotlot/Monching, Maricel/William, Albert/Snooky, Sharon/Gabby, Guy/Pip. That’s Entertainment and even AngTV thrived on love teams. It’s not really a new phenomenon in the Philippines; it’s probably just been magnified with social media and the predilection these days for silly portmanteau nicknames.
