Pinoy Entertainment Portal made a ranking of the Top 10 Sexiest Male Celebrities and the Top 10 Sexiest Female Celebrities based on a survey among lifestyle magazine editors, writers, and showbiz insiders. Ranking in both gender categories starts from the bottom up.
SEXIEST LADIES
10. Luningning. One writer describes Luningning as the only reason he continues to watch Wowowee. Luningning’s sexiness on television can be described as “wholesome,” appealing not only to the adult audience but to the young Luningning-wannabes who dream of a dance showdown with her.
9. Bianca King. This La Salle-College of St. Benilde filmmaking major seems to have mastered the art of playing baddie while looking hot at the same time. Kinda like the way the veteran actress Rosa Rosal used to essay her vampy contravida characters in the old black and white Tagalog films—scheming, evil but sizzling-hot sexy. Another reason for Bianca making it to the list is just how natural her sexy curves are. Not an ounce of fat; sexiness untouched by cosmetic science, just as nature intended.
8. Daiana Menezes. Our bella amiga from Brazil came to Manila in 2006 and fell in love with our country. We Pinoys reciprocated by making her our favourite Brazilian. After taking over the job fellow Brazilian model Ariani Nogueira left in Eat Bulaga!, Pinoys have delighted in Daiana’s sexy charm, her flawless curvaceous bod, twisted Tagalog, and her love for almost anything Pinoy.
7. Anne Curtis. Svelte and sexy, this half-Australian, half-Filipina Kapamilya is considered by her fans (both male and female) as a real goddess when it comes to beauty and sexiness. Her Angelina Jolie-bee-stung lips add more to her striking sex appeal in her beach scenes in When Love Begins, in her different magazine spreads, and in the publicity photos and trailer of her show Dyosa.
6. Michelle Madrigal. Petite and sexy, this olive-skinned stunner always turns heads every time she dons her sexy swimsuit. As Berbola in Dyesebel, male televiewers wait for her prosthetic hair to be swept aside so they can catch a glimpse of her breasts—as if that could happen.
5. Marian Rivera. FHM Philippines’ sexiest woman for 2008 wowed her audience with her sexy samba moves in Marimar in 2007. After that, this half-Filipina, half-Spanish Cavitena’s male followers excitedly glued their eyes to their TV screens for Marian’s role as Dyesebel, the topless mermaid who swam her way to everyone’s heart.
4. Ehra Madrigal. The bosomy Kapuso got the number 6 spot in the FHM Philippines’ 100 sexiest women list. But her fans think she should be on the number one spot, or at least a higher ranking than 6, since she was on the cover of the leading men’s magazine twice (2006 and 2008) and was also in the top 10 of the 100 sexiest list of FHM twice.
3. Katrina Halili. Two-time FHM sexiest Filipina, three-time FHM cover girl, two-time FHM calendar girl, Belo Medical Group image model and said to be the reason behind the Dra. Vicki Belo-Dr. Hayden Kho breakup. Need we say more? But the first StarStruck alumna to be on the cover of the country’s leading men’s magazine fell short of the number one spot in this little survey by PEP. The respondents think it has something to do with the way she shifted her image from bad and sexy to a wholesome underdog goodie.
2. Angel Locsin. She has always been considered one of the sexiest stars in local showbiz. In fact, she was FHM Philippines’ sexiest woman of 2005, the Philippines’ hottest woman of 2008 by Maxim Philippines, and was also given the “Road Distraction Award” by the first Supreme to the Extreme Awards for her very sexy Folded & Hung billboards. Her Lobo “nude” scenes (after shape-shifting from wolf to human) were much discussed in fan web forums, as well as by tabloid columnists who noted how Angel’s present home studio, ABS-CBN, has finally recognized and tapped her sex appeal.
1. Cristine Reyes. She might have landed the cover of FHM only in 2007, but the adoration and excitement for Cristine continued until 2008. And as the year ended, her male fans just can’t get enough of her in Eva Fonda and Banana Split. Some of the male respondents of this little survey by PEP opined that flawless and voluptuous Cristine is sure to grab the top spot in next year’s Philippines’ sexiest list, if the right projects continue and if some minor tweaking on her image-packaging will be done.
