KUALA LUMPUR: Singer and actress Bella Astillah has captured netizens' attention after sharing a video of her collaboration with Muar member of parliament Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman for a clothing campaign in conjunction with next year's Aidilfitri celebrations.
Videos posted on their respective Instagram accounts highlight the warm camaraderie between Bella, 30, and Syed Saddiq, 32.
Their close friendship has sparked a wave of support among netizens, many of whom have expressed their approval of the duo potentially taking their relationship to a romantic level.
"Let's pray that Syed Saddiq's journey is made easy," commented one user.
"Perfect match! This is 100 percent approved!" another chimed in.
"Just get married already! What's the delay?" wrote another enthusiastic follower.
Adding a touch of humour, Syed Saddiq responded to comments about his appearance in the video clip.
"Why does my kicap manis (sweet soy sauce) face look so smooth, like a K-pop artiste?" he joked, adding a laughing emoji.
Bella joined in on the fun, replying, "TikTok made my face smaller," alongside her own laughing emoji.
This isn't the first time their friendship has made headlines.
The popular artiste's attendance at Syed Saddiq's Aidilfitri open house earlier this year fueled similar speculation.
Bella, who was legally divorced for the second time from actor-singer Aliff Aziz in June, shares two children with her ex-husband, namely Mohamad Ayden Adrean, 7, and Ara Adreanna, 4.
