Balooot's Top 10 Pound-for-Pound Prettiest Pinay Celebrities (for the month of May '09)

It's time to rank these celebrities to find out who among the current female celebrities is part of the top 10 pound for pound prettiest and sweetest faces in Philippine showbiz. We've read and seen magazines and internet sites where, sadly, the ranking were still influenced by popularity. Honestly, would you rank Sarah Geronimo on your top 5 list? We have nothing against her, and with full respect, we believe she is talented, pretty and well-mannered, but to be high on that list is a little, well, questionable. Here, the basis of the ranking is plainly concentrated and focused on pretty face alone despite some of them possessing slight physical deficiencies, meaning, they maybe a little slim or a little chubby. Take note, we said a little of everything. Would you want us to rank someone pretty but has become overblown like a whale? We can mention many but we'd rather shut our mouth. Of course, from time to time, this ranking may change as others improve and some fade. As of now, here are the top 10 (bottom first):

10. Maja Salvador

Yes, she is pretty but a little typical for some. Good thing, her wholesome sweet image has somehow helped her to break the top ten. This is a nice place to start climbing up. But with more prettier stars in front of her, it may be a little hard to penetrate the top 5 unless all of them get victimized by surgical disasters.

9. Roxanne Guinoo

Her career is a little over-shadowed right now as some of her peers take the spotlight. This lady can turn herself from sexy vixen to pretty wholesome. As of now, we're just glad that her face starts to bloom, but for how long?We don't know.

8. Heart Evangelista

When she first came out of the scene, we thought the potential was there for her to take the top spot for a long time. Her sweet face is like telling you that she needs to be loved. Though her looks did not really improve that much, it only got worse when her image was tainted after her failed relationship with a loser.

7. Shaina Magdayao

We've spotted this lady way way back when she was still holding a doll. We knew that she'll be a huge potential. Her eyes are round and expressive, and kinda like the ones you see when you watch japanese cartoons. All we wanted to say is that we hope that her pretty face keeps on improving to immediately break into the top 5.

6. Anne Curtis

Definitely, one of the prettiest ladies to have ever come out of Philippine cinema. A dyosa, indeed, personified. Our only reservation with her is that her face is a little confused; sometimes a woman, and sometimes a girl. At any rate, we still consider her a pretty face to reckon with.

5. KC Concepcion

The daughter of megastar Sharon Cuneta and Gabby Concepcion, one of the most good looking men of his generation. Their product is stunning. First of all, she's lucky enough to get her dad's good looks but it was just too much of it and yo
u'll start wondering if she was Gabby wearing a wig. Nevertheless, her beauty spells elegance.

4. Marian Rivera

As popular as she is today, We believe that her pretty face, more than her talent, is what made her a hit in show business. Well-chiseled face combined with almond twinkling eyes could make one guy fall in love instantly. As long as she does not get over exposed, she'll be staying in the top 5 for along long time.

3. Carla Abellana

What!? Who?! Forgive us for putting her high on the list. She may be a clone of Marian but her fresh pretty pretty face is hard to ignore. She is the daughter of the 80s matinee idol (not sure about this), Rey PJ Abellana. Gosh, we don't see the similarity here. Anyway, thank you Mr. Abellana for this beautiful thing. Watch out people, she's the next big thing in showbiz, and a real contender for the top spot.

2. Angelica Panganiban

She and the number one are actually a toss up. This lady keeps getting prettier and prettier everyday. So beautiful, you'll start to wonder if her face is real or a product of digital wonder. Her looks definitely belong to the upper echelon and she's really going to stay in this list for a long time.

1. Bea Alonzo

We are not a kapamilya nor a kapuso, and definitely not a fan at all. She is purely what we call a pretty face at its best. Her face is not perfect but the shape of her face, eyes, lips and nose are almost. Okay, let's just say that everything about her is beautiful. We did did not say she's irreplaceable,but right now, she's the top P4P prettiest face in showbiz.

Stay tuned for our next update in the coming weeks to find out if there are changes. Again, this list is created by balooot.com. Feel free to let us know your opinions.

Breaking the myth: The power of money

Pera o Mukha? Yes, alam natin si Brad Pitt yung nasa right pero sino yung isa? Pwet niya? Este, of course di natin siya kilala. Ganun talaga ang buhay sometimes 'di fair, at kung may swe-swertihin diyan, ay mag-pasalamat nalang; kung may mamalasin, ehh, goodluck na lang. I've been long intrigued with the issue between pera at itsura. In fact, mas-marami na ako ngayong nakikitang babae na may asawa o boyfriend na ang itsura ay parang nanay nalang nila ang makakatanggap ng pag-mumukha nila. Ito ba yung tinatawag na true love? or may hidden reason lang? Let's find out. Okay, looking at the pictures above, we all know na no-match ito pag-kinumpira mo, at parang Mike Tyson versus Palito ang magiging labas nito. Let's make a scenario nalang, yan. Let's consider anonymous persons sila. Tapos, kunwari, sa lugar niyo ay wala na talagang lalaki kung hindi mga unggoy na lang. Itong dalawang lalaki na 'to ay naging persistent suitors mo,and syempre since tumatanda ka na, kailangan mo na rin mag-decide kung sino sa kanila ang pakakasalan mo. Remember, strict ang parents mo and lahat ng kapatid, kamag-anak at kaibagan mo ay naka-asawa ng mga good-looking at mayayaman. Dapat ka na rin mag-desisyon. Bago ang lahat, ito ang tale of the tape:

Guy 1 (yung bakbak yung ngipin)

Face value: Very poor; unacceptable

Height: 1 inch shorter than you

Body: Alanganin

Profession: Established businessman

Cars: Mercedes, BMW, & Porche Properties: 5 Mansions & 2 buildings

Attitude: Funny, matalino, mabait & thoughful

Account: P 500M

Guy 2 (yung gwapingus)

Face value: Excellent

Height: at least 5 inches taller

Body: Body beautiful mala-greek god

Profession: Jack of all trades; pa-buhat dito pa-buhat doon para kumita

Cars: Wala at wala rin alam sa kotse

Properties: May lupa rin paminsan sa kuko

Attitude: Funny, matalino, mabait & thoughtful

Account: Wala at may utang pa nga na P338.00 na 2 years nang di mabaya-bayaran

So, nakita niyo na mga ang katangian nila. Ito na nga, medyo nade-develop ka na rin sa kanilang dalawa at parang nagbibigay na ng clue na ikaw na nga ang pakakasalan. Oo nga pala, di rin sila babaero, sa totoo pa nga mga one-woman man sila. Halos parehong-pareho ang ugali, pero yun nga lang, nag-kakaiba sa pera at itsura. Si Guy 1, sigurado di ka na makakatikim ng gutom, maliban nalang kung nakalimutan mo nalang bumili ng pag-kain, and lahat lahat ng gusto mo halos mabibili mo na. Ang downfall lang, paminsan wala nang challenge sa buhay at baka ma-bored ka lang. At sa tingin mo ba matutuwa ka sa bawa't pag-gising mo sa umaga ganun klaseng mukha ang sasalubong sa 'yo? Si Guy 2 naman, pwede naman talagang i-display sa lahat ng tao ng hindi kayo mahihiya. Pang showbiz talaga. Maganda rin naman ugali, yun nga lang, ni pambili ng sardinas di alam kung saan kukunin. Bahala na kayo mamili sa kanila. Sa mukha ba? O, sa pwet? Este!, sa ma-pera?
