Vice Ganda was the butt of jokes in Ferdinand Clemente's semifinals poetry performance in "Pilipinas Got Talent" on Saturday.

Clemente, who goes by the name Prinsipe Makata, made several references to Vice Ganda's supposed past relationship during his performance.

"Ako pala iyong sagot sa iyong mga prayer, akala mo kasi dati iyong basketball player," he quipped at one point.

His many jokes got a ton of laughs from the live audience, as well as from Vice Ganda's co-judges, Angel Locsin and Robin Padilla.

Even the comedian himself had to admit that he was "captivated" by Clemente, whom he praised for being a "complete" performer.

"I cannot miss a moment doon sa performance mo kasi ayaw kong may ma-miss na salita sa sasabihin mo dahil mawawala ako sa kuwento," Vice Ganda acknowledged.

Clemente was one of the four acts who performed in Saturday's live episode. The others were kid contortionists DWC Aeon Flux, dance group Junior FMD Extreme, and girl group Mad Queens.

Dancing lolo Pedro Lachica and golden buzzer act Bardilleranz will take the stage on Sunday, before voting lines open.
