The three-time FHM babe will appear in the ABS-CBN teleserye Hiyas with Megan Young and alongside Camille Prats in the GMA 7 series Luna Blanca, both of which will debut almost at the same time! “At least dito, makikita ako ng tao kung ano ang kaya kong gawin at ihain,” says Mercedes. “Hindi yung nai-stereotype ako sa mga sexy characters nga.” Don’t forget about us when you make it big!
2. Bianca King finally gets her primetime break!
For the first time in her career, Bianca King will be top billing a primetime teleserye. The 27-year old actress will reportedly have her skin blackened for her role in Luna Blanca, where she plays the titular role of Luna opposite Heart Evangelista. “It’s a small price to pay for a role that’s so big,” says Bianca, who also reveals that her dream role would include doing a female heroin ala-Alias or Charlie’s Angels. Keep the dream alive, girl! Congrats!
1. Katrina Halili stands up against online bullying!
Bullies beware; some celebrities are willing to go the distance just to prove a point. Take for example Katrina Halili, who contacted the National Bureau of Investigation as a means to get in touch with her Twitter basher. “May mga tweet siya sa akin na pupuntahan daw niya ako sa taping. Nagti-threat siya kaya lumapit ako sa NBI,” she quips. Authorities have since found said suspect, and Katrina plans to file charges against her as soon as possible. Feisty!
