Angelica Panganiban

Long back tresses framing a divine face, eyes that reveal everything in her soul, alabaster skin, a curvaceous body – Angelica Panganiban could have been a goddess born of the sea and sent live among mortals. Just so we know what real beauty is.

Now tie the hair into an unruly bun, and clear the face of make-up—she would still be stunning. Remember, this was once the child star who still looked adorable in rags and covered with soot for the movie Sarah, Ang Munting Prinsesa.

Angelica started her career as one of the kids in the sketch show, Ang TV. She had small parts in movies. She did a few commercials. The kid had flair. She could act, dance and entertain without trying. And right before our eyes, she broke into adolescence and started doing Sa Puso Ko Iingatan Ka and the teen-oriented show Berks.

Though the projects were never scarce, one movie Santa Santita, turned her career around for the better. The public began seeing her in a new light, and she felt ready to take on more challenges, such as posing for FHM, which put her on its cover in the March 2007 issue, and for a Ginebra San Miguel calendar.
Her handler, Cris Navarro, says, Angelica eagerly prepared for the transition to the adult image: ”She attended workshops for every project, from acting to dance, wushu training din, sensuality workshop, conversations with other senior artists.”
Now 21 and living on her own, Angelica is just enjoying life, working and playing hard as ever – as a female lead in the fantasy series Rounin and in a new movie for Star Cinema.
