The Verdict

Though Angel Locsin did not win the Best Actress trophy in the recently concluded 37th International Emmy Awards (held in Hilton, New York on November 24, 2009), her nomination alone made the Filipinos proud. She lost to UK veteran actress

She was nominated for her exemplary performance as Lyka (the she-wolf) in the outsatndingly produced ABS-CBN tv series "Lobo" (the Wolf). She eventually lost to veteran actress Julie Walters (Molly Weasley in the Harry Potter series) for her outstanding performance as Dr. Anne Turner in "A Short Stay in Switzerland".


The Controversial Gown
Angel Locsin revealed that the gown she wore on the red carpet was a creation by Michael Cinco . "My gown weighs six kilos. Actually it's been hold by the customs because it has Swarovski's in it. But I also have a business suit by Ivar Aseron and Rajo Laurel made my cocktail dress." The gown reportedly costs PhP1 Million (US$22000).


Something Filipinos should be proud of
Angel's nomination marks the second time that a Filipina was nominated for the category Best Performance for an Actress. Tessie Tomas was also nominated for her role as Imelda Marcos in the 1989 film A Dangerous Life.

Being recognized internationally is really something to look up to.
