Glam Nation : Erich Gonzales

Throwback photo. Scanned from Star Studio Magazine July 2012. Erich Gonzales wears a gold embellished gown by Philipp Tampus. 

Last Sunday I was able to watch on TV Erich's movie with Mario Maurer, Suddenly It's Magic. I just realized how good they looked together on screen. Aside from that, Erich is fresh from the "Juan Dela Cruz" TV series where she played Rosario, Coco Martin's leading lady and love interest. I was kinda glad that the two were paired as they also look good on screen. Now, I wonder what Erich's next project would be. I sure hope it's going to be another good one.

Glam Nation : Kim Chiu

Throwback photo. Scanned from Star Studio Magazine July 2012 issue. Kim Chiu wears Francis Libiran when she accepted her award for being Princess of Philippine TV. Indeed, a well deserved award. Kim is often seen on Kris TV as co-host of Kris Aquino. Aside from that, she's fresh from the success of her first movie with Xian Lim, a movie adaptation of the book written by Ramon Bautista (Bakit Di Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo?). I believe the popularity of KimXi tandem has surpassed that of Kimerald.

I wonder what's Kim's next project on TV and the big screen. I hope she doesn't get tied down to KimXi projects only. It would be good to see new team ups and tandems from time to time. Just my two cents... >.<

Glam Nation : Toni Gonzaga

Throwback photo. Scanned from Star Studio Magazine July 2012 issue. Toni Gonzaga, for me, is one of the best, if not the best, female TV hosts in the country today. She's witty as well as funny. Her latest stint was being host of the first ever season of The Voice Philippines. I think she did an excellent job! Plus, I love watching her dress up during the show. 

Here Toni wears a red evening dress while accepting her award for Female Concert Performer of the year. 

I believe that Toni Gonzaga has an upcoming project with John Lloyd Cruz soon on TV. I can't wait to watch it! Looks like it's going to be a comedy series. ^_^

Glam Nation : Anne Curtis

Call this a throwback photo. Scanned from Star Studio Magazine July 2012. For me, Anne Curtis is one of the certified "fashionistas" among local female celebrities. It seems she can pull off almost anything she wears.

She wore a simple white gown by Francis Libiran when she accepted her Box Office Queen award for "No Other Woman." Anne's a pretty good actress and I think she should star in another prime time TV series. The last one she starred in ended rather too soon (Kailangan Ko'y Ikaw). I also hope that she stars on the big screen soon. 

Megan Young, Miss World 2013

Post by Miss World - Philippines.

Megan Young, first Filipina ever to be crowned Miss World! Wow! Now she's part of Philippine beauty pageant history as one of the firsts! Amazing isn't it? Her lovely gown is by the world-renowned Francis Libiran. I believe I have previously shared some of his gowns too when Anne Curtis modeled for him. I'm just proud that the Filipinos have been proven to be world class! Mind you, that's not just for beauty pageants or singing talents! I know that the Philippines may be wrought with problems and major political and peace & order issues, but good news such as this one someone feels like the light at the end of the tunnel. It's what keeps Filipinos hanging on and looking forward to a better tomorrow! Ooops, enough of the dramas! That's one reason why I waited a few days before posting.. so my emotional excitement will die down a bit. I've been supporting Megan's journey since she got shortlisted as a candidate in MWP. And now, I'm still going to be with her as she journeys into the bigger world out there! >.<

Congratulations Megan Young -- Miss World Philippines 2013!

Megan Young (@meganbata) brought home the Miss World Philippines 2013 crown on last Sunday night's coronation night. She will be representing the country in Miss World competition in Indonesia next month. Yey! It's my first time to bet on a candidate as I'm not much of a beauty pageant fan. I'm now a certified Megan Young fan. I've started loving her upon watching her play antagonist to Ritz Azul who stars on TV5 Misibis Bay. 

I love it that Megan is versatile. She can be an actress, TV host, singer, model, and many more. I'm happy she's our representative to the Miss World 2013 international competition. I'm rooting for her all the way! Congratulations, Megan Lynne Young! <3 <3 <3 

Her lovely gown is by Eric delos Santos. I really love it! I hope she'll look just as stunning on Miss World coronation night!

Megan Young -- Candidate No. 20, MWP2013

Megan Young (@meganbata) -- I don't usually follow news about beauty pageants. No, I'm not much of a fan, except this time around, one of the candidates caught my attention. For me, she's one of the under-appreciated leading ladies of the Kapamilya channel. I've seen her in shows here and there and have not really been much of a fan girl until I watched her on TV5 Misibis Bay.

Megan plays Lara Borromeo, one of the antagonists of the main character of TV5 Misibis Bay played by Ritz Azul. I don't even mind that she's playing kontrabida. I've never seen her glow as much as she does these days. Then I learned that Megan finally joined Miss World Philippines 2013.

I love watching Megan Young. I think I've become a real fan too. I do believe she has what it takes to make it as Miss World Philippines 2013. I'm rooting for her and I hope and pray that she will take home the crown. I'd love for her to represent the country in Miss World 2013 competition.

For now, I will keep watching the last two weeks of TV5 Misibis Bay. Plus, I will definitely follow her journey to this Sunday's coronation night. Yup, Miss World Philippines 2013 coronation night will be on August 18, 2013 on GMA Network. Good luck, Megan! Bring home the bacon! ^_^
