Young actress Ysabel Ortega as Jamie Robinson in Voltes-V Legacy | Photos

The press is out! Young actress Ysabel Ortega would be playing the coveted role of Jamie Robinson in the real-life adaptation of the Japanese anime television series  Chōdenji Machine Voltes V. 

The series has drawn much attention from the public since Voltes V enjoyed a cult-following in the Philippines in the 1970s, only to be banned by the Marcos dictatorship in 1979 due to alleged "excessive violence". 

This blogger is part of the generation that followed the series in my younger years so I am quite critical of how GMA-7 will do its adaptation though it was also reported that the script has been approved by Toei Animation and Nippon Sunrise (good thing!). I hate teledramas.

And so (back to our topic), Ysabel Ortega would be playing the role of Jamie Robinson in the GMA-7's Voltes V Legacy series. It was reported that she got the part in an audition where the scene had her plead to Steve Armstrong to leave a mission due to her father's (Doctor Robinson) ailing condition.

Here she is in her costume (see photo below, in contrast to the anime character (fan art) that she is portraying). 




Who is this actress who will play Jamie? She was born Maria Ysabel Ortega Lapid on January 25, 1999, to parents Senator Lito Lapid (I am not a fan!) and Michelle Ortega. 

Her first major role was as a villain in Born For You, where her acting made viewers hate her (which is quite an achievement for playing a villain role, especially at her young age). She has been in show business since 2014. 

Here are more photos of Ysabel Ortega




By the way, Jinri Park made a cosplay of Jamie Robinson in this previous blog post.

On our next post would be.... (drum roll)... Leizel Lopez, who would be playing the role of the Boazanian Zandra.

RECOMMENDED: Facebook Page Pure Hot Pinays | Photos

It has been a while since we posted in this blog. Most of the internet traffic and what-have-yous could be viewed on social media (particularly on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram). But in the past few years, this blogger has been following a page, which features pretty Filipina women. I would recommend for you to follow said site. 

I am talking about the PURE HOT PINAYS Facebook page. It has changed administrators through the years and has gained a lot of followers through the years. As of this writing, it now has 456,000 followers (yeah, almost half a million!). 

Much of its posts come from models and brand ambassadors. The mainstays are the following Angelique aka Cheska Ayad, Jelly Kwong, Kinsky Glavin, Aiz Skat, Irish Tan, Grace Vargas, Apol Salangad, Kate Lim, Chloe Recto, and Jackie So, among others. 

I am particularly a fan of Cheska Ayad, she knows how to strike a pose to stir up your wild imaginings. If time permits, I would post a thing or two about them in the coming weeks. 

Most of those featured on the FB page PURE HOT PINAYS are also models of alua (dot) com, where you could chat with them, gift them a gift or two, and they would give freebies of unreleased videos and photos. I could only imagine what they give out (not willing to shell out hard-earned cash for such fetish). 

Anyway, here are some hot photos of said models on the PURE HOT PINAYS Facebook page (we will try to keep our blog wholesome so there would be no NFSW and R-18 images).  Go to alua if you want more skin hahaha (must be 18+).
