ARE WEDDING BELLS IN THE AIR FOR FoB LEAD AND VIRGO CEO?
by Fulash I.T.

It looks like it’s not just her fans that are falling head over heels for Flower Over Bones’ matronly co-lead and bassist, Luce! Could rumors be true that this latest star has caught the eye of Virgo Entertainment’s Edward Blanche for more than just her musical talent?

FoB made a stunning first appearance a few months ago in the summer, with fans gushing about the band’s unique sound for classical-pop and critics shaking their heads with proclamations that the band didn’t know what their genre was. Regardless, FoB was a success no one could deny. Part of that popularity has sprung from the familial dynamic of the band itself, with some joking that Luce and “Doctor”, the band’s oldest members and co-leads, act as the parents. “Bandmom” and “Banddad” have become popular nicknames in the fandom. However, both musicians have denied any romantic feeling between them. This was hotly debated in many publications and on social media of all sorts.

Yet at the Vista Music Industry Awards Gala, an intriguing development occurred.

It’s no secret that Lesedi Santiago and Edward Blanche, the CEOs of Pride Records and Virgo Entertainment respectively, have been at a sometimes shockingly point of contention for many years now. The most recent outburst of this was the already well covered dispute at a fall awards ceremony that ended up Santiago tossing Blanche’s wine in his face. The point of interest in this story is not the conflict between leaders, but in the aftermath. Several reliable sources have claimed to have seen Luce tending to Blanche’s bruised ego after the fact.

“The girl’s barely a Virgo fledgling, and she’s already up in his grill, touching his face and all that,” said one eye witness. “Edward Blanche is not exactly the most touchy man around, so to get away with that action there must be something going on.”

Luce reportedly left Blanche with her handkerchief after the fact. He was later seen leaving the party with it securely in hand.

After that excitement fueled night, however, things went silent. As is his habit, Edward Blanche has once again secluded himself away from the world of fame to become the enigma we all know him as. In comparison, there isn’t a second that Luce hasn’t been in the spotlight: various concerts, winning the first annual BassOff, and showing up to charity events. Would there be any time in these celebrities’ busy lives for a secret romantic rendezvous? According to one trusted source, absolutely. It’s been reported that Luce has been seen taking the elevator up to Blanche’s office floor, a privilege that few have been granted. Just what could be going on behind closed office doors? Is it possible that a new ring which has been seen on the bassist’s finger could be a symbol of an announcement coming soon? Is a matching one on Blanche’s own hand? Time will tell.
