Beautiful Filipina Heart Evangelista | Photos

Chinese Filipina Heart Evangelista was born Love Marie Payawal Ongpauco on February 14, 1985. This beautiful Pinay is a TV show host, singer, celebrity endorser and VJ (video jockey).

Her parents are restauranteurs Reynaldo Ongpauco and Cecilia Payawal. His grandfather established the first Barrio Fiesta Restaurant - an international chain, which specializes in traditional Filipino food. He is also a movie producer and caterer of various movie firms.

Beautiful Filipina Heart Evangelista has been active in show business since 1998. As of this writing, she is casted in GMA 7 primetime soap, "Legacy". But from  1998 to 2008, she was connected with rival network ABS-CBN.

Her big break came in 1998, she became part of Star Circle Batch 9, after which she was shown in "G-Mik", "Trip", "Ang Tanging Ina", "My First Romance" and "Berks".

She was nominated in the Star Awards Best Actress award for her role in the TV series, Hiram in 2004. Her singles "Love has Come My Way" and "Tell Me" also won various awards. The Pinay actress renewed her contract with ABS-CBN in 2007, which had her in a TV remake of the movie "Hiram na Mukha". She also appeared in "Pangarap na Bituin".

In photos shared via Instagram below, she enjoys her vacation with friends (in Malaysia, I think).

Pretty Filipina Heart Evangelista transferred to GMA 7 in 2008, which had her star in the series "Codename: Asero". She also co-hosted the weekend variety show "SOP Rules". The network casted her in various shows.

She won the FAMAS Best Actress trophy in 2009 for her portrayal in the movie, "Ay Ayeng" - a film about the Ifugao tribe in the Mountain Province (north of Manila).

Last installment of photos of our featured Pinay celebrity (who - starting this month, July 2013, is now part of the Eat Bulaga noontime show)! She is hosting on it every Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays since "Dabarkads" Pauleen Luna and Julia Clarete are out on break. Would she fall for Vic Sotto and dump her current boyfriend, the controversial Senator Chiz Escudero, who is reportedly hated by her parents? Hmmm. However remote, I would count that as a possibility. Bossing has a notorious track record for snagging his co-hosts?!?

Filipina dancer, actress, Shaina Magdayao | Photos

For more than a decade, Philippine TV viewers have witnessed the blossoming of Filipina model, dancer and actress Shaina Magdayao from a cute little girl to a well-endowed and talented woman.

She was born Shaina Garcia Magdayao on November 6, 1989 in Quezon City. At a tender young age in 1996, she played the lead role in the drama series Lyra. Shaina then ventured into comedy (Ang TV and Kaybol) before she played Rina in the afternoon soap Marinella.

Miss Magdayao also had a self-titled debut album with Star Records in 2000. In 2002, she was dubbed the Most Popular Child Actress by the Guillermo Mendoza Awards.

2003 proved to be a really good year for our featured Filipina girl. She bagged the Best Child Actress in the FAMAS awards (the Philippine equivalent of the Oscars) for her role in the film Tanging Yaman.

Since then, she has ventured into mature roles which was showcased her versatility in character portrayals. Movie pundits and critics sometimes compare her to talented veteran Filipina celebrity Maricel Soriano. I completely agree!

Her “star quality” has prompted various commercial brands to get her as their endorser (as shown in photo below where she models the Bench clothing wear brand)
