Jewel Mische and Angel Locsin

Angel Locsin attended the Star Magic Ball in 2009 with then boyfriend Luis Manzano. She was then working on her tv show "Lobo" with Piolo Pascual. She was last seen on tv show "Imortal" which is a sequel to the first. She also recently starred in a movie with Aga Muhlach and Jake Cuenca, entitled "In the Name of Love. "

Angel's switch from the Kapuso GMA Network was quite controversial. She was considered the premier talent then of GMA-7. (Star Magic Ball 2009)

Another Kapuso GMA-7 talent who made the switch to ABS-CBN was Jewel Mische. She was linked to GMA-7 premier leading man, Richard Gutierrez. Jewel first starred as leading lady to Gerald Anderson in tv show "Buhawi Jack." Now she's seen as one of the second leads on "100 Days." I hope she gets more challenging roles as she has quite proven she could act when she also starred in an episode of MMK with Baron Geisler.

Melissa Ricks

Has Melissa Ricks gone daring? Well her latest tv show, an adaptation of the Chilean telenovela, ¿Dónde está Elisa?, surely shows a more mature and daring Melissa. It seemed just like yesterday when she came out as one of top 5 Star Circle Questors when she was just 14. She was talked about more recently because of her break up with boyfriend Jake Cuenca. The two have kept mum about their relationship until the break up. Melissa was escorted to the Star Magic Ball by former love team Matt Evans. Will the two be paired up again?

Melissa and Jake at last year's Star Magic Ball. This sparked interests that the two were really together despite their blatant denials.

Melissa and former love team Matt Evans when they attended the Star Magic Ball in 2009. I liked her gown then. Nice color and has a unique style and design.  Perhaps the two can be reunited in another project soon.

Megan Young and Lauren Young

Stylish and wow! Love Megan Young's look. I wonder what her next project is. I know she's supposed to star opposite Zanjoe Marudo in a tv project, as I've seen the teaser shown a few months back. I wonder why they haven't released it yet. I remember her last on a tv sitcom as the leading lady of Aga Muhlach, who has now made the big switch to TV5.

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Megan's younger sister, Lauren Young, starred in the remake of "Mula Sa Puso," in a lead role originally portrayed by Claudine Barretto. I actually liked Lauren's new look as she was made to look more glamorized than the teeny bopper second lead roles she used to play. She's seen in a few other tv shows, notably as younger sister to Piolo Pascual in tv show "Lobo." She used to be paired with AJ Perez, who unfortunately perished in a car accident April of this year. I wonder what her next project would be after "Mula Sa Puso."

Shaina Magdayao

The star of Alyna, Shaina Magdaya, looked alluring in her red gown during the Star Magic Ball this year. It has been some months since her 'telenovela' ended. We have yet to hear about her next project. I suppose she's taking it a bit easy after she and boyfriend John Lloyd Cruz have been involved in some scandalous and malicious gossip. 

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

This is the second Star Magic ball that Shaina is escorted by her boyfriend. Amidst a lot of speculation of their relationship being on the rocks, it is good to see they're still together. Last year, the couple indeed looked fabulous.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Back in 2009, Shaina was escorted by then boyfriend John Pratts. The two have since moved on to new relationships. Shaina is now with John Lloyd, and John  P. is rumored to be courting "Happy Yipee Yehey" co-host Bianca Manalo, former representative to the Ms. Universe Pageant in 2009.

Angeline Quinto

What can I say? I like Angeline Quinto. She was my bet to win the Star Power Competition. I'm glad she did! This is her first year in attending the Star Magic Ball.

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Yeng Constantino

I find Yeng Constantino's fashion sense to be different. I actually admire her punk and sense of style. She dares to be different and stands out. Besides, this pop rock princess is truly talented. She totally rocks! ^_^

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Yeng looked a bit more traditional in last year's ball. I don't know why but I seem to prefer seeing her look unique and her fashion style stand out. I certainly won't mind seeing her in fashion forward outfit! After all, she is a rocker chick!

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

'Tis the first time I saw Yeng sport a fashion forward outfit. I don't think it was received so well back in 2009. Perhaps that was why she opted for a more traditional look the year after. I'm glad though that she's back in her signature style in this year's ball. 

I wonder what's her next tv project aside from ASAP Rocks. I used to watch Music Uplate Live because of Yeng. She totally rocks and I like her music!

Erich Gonzales

Erich Gonzales is the grand winner of the second batch of the Star Circle Quest back in 2005. This lass from Davao has indeed come a long way since she was also catapulted to stardom for her role in "Katorse" where she played a teenage mom. She has starred in a few other tv shows and currently portrays the lead role in "Maria del Barrio" -- a remake of the Mexican telenovela originally played by Thalia. Erich definitely looks stunning in her red gown.

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Here is Erich in last year's ball. Her black gown looks simply stunning, but I think red looks better on her. Erich used to play second fiddle to Kim Chiu and other stars before finally making her way to stardom. By a stroke of luck, her tandem with leading man Enchong Dee really clicked; thus making both of them promising lead stars. They even starred in the movie "I Do."

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Kathryn Bernardo and Julia Montes

The remake of "Mara Clara" somehow catapulted both Kathryn Bernardo and Julia Montes into stardom. I would say they're the latest Kapamilya teen princesses. Will they be the next Claudine Barretto - Judy Ann Santos? The two recently starred in a family drama "Way Back Home."

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

I found this picture from last year's ball featuring Kathryn Bernardo with her fellow teen stars, Miles Ocampo and John Manalo. Kathryn is most definitely a bigger star now that she played the role of Mara, formerly portrayed by young superstar Judy Ann Santos.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Angelica Panganiban

Angelica Panganiban was pretty controversial for a while having been involved in an issue with Claudine Barretto. Now it seems both camps are quiet. I would consider Angelica as one of the most versatile actresses in Philippine showbiz. She's great in both comedy and dramatic roles. But I particularly liked her in "Ruby."

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Angelica looked just as stunning in last year's Star Magic ball, although I didn't quite like her gown. Nonetheless, it was different compared to the other lovely gowns of the other belles of the ball. Black seems to be the main theme of last year's ball as a good number of the ladies who attended wore black too. That's Derek Ramsey, Angelica's beau looking on while Angel gets photographed.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Toni Gonzaga

Although she is not a Star Magic talent, it is good to see Toni Gonzaga graze the Star Magic Ball with director boyfriend Paul Soriano. Toni is the SM Cinema's Box-Office Queen for 2011 for her movie with John Lloyd Cruz entitled "My Amnesia Girl." She is currently one of the hosts of the daily noontime show "Happy Yipee Yehey" and joins "The Buzz" celebrity talk show on Sundays.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Claudine Barretto

Claudine Barretto, the former Star Magic Queen, attended the Star Magic ball for the last time in 2009 before she made the shift to become a Kapuso under the GMA Network. I'm sure she is missed by many of her Kapamilya, ABS-CBN fans. She currently stars in TV show "Iglot" over at GMA-7.

 With Claudine is sister Gretchen Barretto.

(Star Magic Ball 2009)

Maja Salvador

There's no doubt that Maja Salvador is the news maker in this year's Star Magic Ball, after TV leading man Coco Martin and beau Matteo Guidicelli had an altercation that ended sourly after the ball. Apparently it was due to a jealousy issue between the two men who are being linked to Maja. Matteo has apologized via national TV and so for now it seems all is well.

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Maja Salvador belongs to a family of well-known actors and actresses. She has apparently inherited the acting prowess of her famous relatives as I have admired her acting skills since I have watched her act alongside Star for all Season s and Batangas Governor Vilma Santos. It was a younger Maja then who portrayed the role of a differently-abled daughter to Vilma. Her TV series has just ended and she starred in an indie film called "Thelma" which was directed by Paul Soriano.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Kim Chiu

Kim Chiu has come a long way since winning Pinoy Big Brother Teen Edition back in 2006. Back then, she's just another new teen star playing mostly teeny bopper roles. She has indeed blossomed into a lady.

Kim is known for her Barbie-like gowns. I find her cute in this one. She's indeed one of the princesses of ABS-CBN. 

(Star Magic Ball 2009)

Kim looks sexier and more matured in last year's Star Magic Ball. I personally think she needs to put on a little more weight as she looks so thin. That's Gerald Anderson in the background -- Kim's long-time love team partner. However, the two apparently split up. Now they're working on separate projects. Both are being teamed up with other artists.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Here's Kim now in this year's Star Magic Ball. She's still skinny, albeit more matured-looking. I believe she has grown into a fine actress. I haven't been able to watch her current show "Binondo Girl" but I was able to watch the first week marathon re-runs and think she's doing a great job in it.  I hope she gets more exciting roles in the near future. 

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Bea Alonso

It seems that there was some reversal of roles here. If Cristine's image went from sexy and daring to sweet, Bea Alonso is the opposite. I must say this look for this year's Star Magic Ball came as a surprise to me. Is it because she's now with rumored bf Zanjoe Marudo? 

I believe that Bea Alonso is one of the few actresses who looks better now that she has matured a bit. She's pretty, true, but now I think she looks more beautiful then ever. 

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Black is bold. I like Bea's gown at last year's Star Magic Ball. Here you'll see how gracefully she's maturing. She's indeed one of the finest dramatic actresses around. 

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Bea Alonso's bold and beautiful look this year is a shock if you compare it to her Star Magic Ball 2009 look. It's certainly not as alluring, but it's just as pretty. I wonder what her next project would be after "Guns and Roses" which is due to end by next week.

(Star Magic Ball 2009)

Cristine Reyes

Cristine Reyes is my mom's favorite. For me, she is not only a fine sexy actress, I admire her for her spunk and candidness. She is bit of a controversial star, having been previously involved in posting nasty remarks on her twitter account against another star, Sarah Geronimo. 

This gown is truly a stopper! I believe she should have been chosen FHM's sexiest woman. 

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

Cristine's image has changed in this year's Star Magic Ball. Perhaps it's because she's already involved with Rayver Cruz. He was the reason for her previous spat with Sarah Geronimo, but all is well with them now.

I like her gown her, although it does take a little getting used to as I still think sexy and daring  when you say Cristine Reyes. LOL!

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

Anne Curtis

Anne Curtis looks fabulous in this black gown. I truly admire how she was able to pull this off when she attended the Star Magic Ball in 2009.

I admire Anne Curtis for her fashion sense. To me, she truly is one of the best dressed female celebrities in Philippine showbiz.

(Star Magic Ball 2009)

Wow! Truly bold and brave in this evening look at  the Star Magic Ball 2010. Anne Curtis is one female celebrity who manages to make me stop and take a second look. She has this lovely classic look I like.This look would not look as hot in a lesser star.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

KC Concepcion

KC Concepcion looks so lovely in this gown. So far, this is my fave look since she first attended the Star Magic Ball in 2009.

KC is my the first one I featured here because she's also one of my favorite local female celebrities in Philippine showbiz.

(Star Magic Ball 2011)

KC looks just as stunning during the Star Magic Ball in 2010, her second year of attending the ball.

KC is one of my favorites because she's so versatile. She can sing, dance, host, and act. But what I love most about her is she's also a UN World Food Program Ambassador. For me, that's like a real life princess.

(Star Magic Ball 2010)

KC wore this Joey Samson gown back in 2009, her first attendance at the Star Magic Ball.  It's the first time heartthrob Piolo Pascual brought a date and it was KC. I must say I'm a Piolo Pascual - KC Concepcion fan.

I must admit KC's gown wasn't too flattering. Nonetheless, it stood out as it's unique and different from most of the gowns of the other lovely ladies in attendance.
