Angel Locsin stays on top ???

It's a feat that Angel Locsin has managed to stay on top in a business where the turnover rate is high.

Angel knows how it feels to be number one. Well, many times over. She was FHM Philippines' sexiest woman. For this year, Maxim Philippines picked her as the sexiest woman in the country.

"We really can’t control the result. We can’t dictate the winner or who the people will vote for...kailangan ko bang kunin ang lahat? Happy ako at pinagtitiwalaan ako at naniniwala sa akin ang mga tao...those who have voted for me, maraming salamat sa mga boto ninyo...isipin na rin natin na nag-iiba na ang times. Mas importante sa akin na mas maraming naniniwalang mga tao sa akin," the actress related.


Angel remains as one of the sough-after image model of products. Just recently, she was chosen as the new face of Folded and Hung.

F&H’s president Ronald Pineda believes that Angel is the number one celebrity endorser.

"Grabe ang sexy niya talaga," said Ronald looking at the three larger than life photos of Angel wearing a pair of jeans and nothing on top. "She captures all the market from A, B and C. She’s a leading lady. She has classy beauty and she’s a perfect endorser...pagkumukuha kami ng endorser, we want someone who can communicate to both men and women. Si Angel, kaya niya ito."

Pitching for the clothes, Angel said F&H apparel perfectly fits her lifestyle as they have clothes for all occasions. More importantly, their clothes are affordable.

She shared what convinced her to pose topless, wearing only F&H jeans in her billboard. "Na-challenge ako kasi hindi ko naman ginagawa yun...of course I was tensed when they told me about it. Pero biglaan kasi rin yun and when it was explained sa akin na ang jeans naman yung binebenta sa layout na ito, I agreed with their concept," said Angel.

She also clarified the nasty rumor that she "snatched" the F&H endorsement from Claudine Barretto.

Pineda, meantime, why chose a single celebrity to endorse the clothign line: "I also want to protect their image. At the same time gusto ko they would feel that they are being taken care of. May superstar feeling pag solo...kuha niya ang limelight talaga at ang lakas ng communication kapag mag-isa lang talaga!"

As her TV series with Piolo Pascual entitled "Lobo" ends its run soon, the actress is faced with another intrigue: That she's getting along well with Piolo because of some scenes in the last few episodes.

"Paano nangyari yun na may issue ng agawan eksena? Masaya na matatapos na kami kasi maraming revelations na mangyayari. Nagkasama kami sa ‘E Live’ and

‘Wowowee.’ Basta hindi ko na kailangang sagutin, manuod na lang kayo ng ‘Lobo and be the judge. Basta kami, we worked very hard kasi mahihirap ang mga eksena namin," she said.

After her last taping for "Lobo," Angel is scheduled to fly to Bangkok for another project.
