A grateful Angel returns home

Movie and television actress Angel Locsin returned home Saturday night after attending the 37th International Emmy Awards in New York in the United States.
Locsin, who was nominated for her performance in ABS-CBN teleseries "Lobo," failed to grab the best actress award, but she said she is still grateful for being nominated and to be part of the prestigious event.
Locsin said she is also proud that many international journalists have been captivated by her Filipino-designed gown.
“Nakakatuwa kasi na-appreciate nila ‘yong gown ko. Kinakausap nila ako ng iba’t ibang language. May taga-Brazil, China… I’m happy na na-appreciate nila ang gown ko.… Just being there, sobrang honor na,” she said.
The actress also thanked ABS-CBN for giving her the opportunity to be part of “Lobo.” She was also grateful to her leading man, Piolo Pascual, who sent her a bouquet of flowers before the gala night.
“Hindi pa ako makapag-react kasi di ko naman sure kung [sa kanya nanggaling] ‘yon. Noong makita ko na sa kanya nga, happy ako. Very happy ako at nakatrabaho ko si Piolo,” she said.
Locsin is the second Filipina to be nominated under the best actress category in the competition.
She followed Tessie Tomas who was nominated for her role as former first lady Imelda Marcos in the 1989 film "A Dangerous Life."
Meanwhile, Malaysian actress Carmen Soo also said she is proud to be part of another International Emmy nominee, “Kahit Isang Saglit.”
ABS-CBN's "Kahit Isang Saglit" was also nominated under the telenovela category. The Filipino TV series lost to Brazil’s “India-A Love Story.”

No Intl Emmy plum for RP

The country's 3 nominees at the 37th International Emmy Awards were unsuccessful in their bid to bring home the prizes during the gala event at Hilton New York Hotel Monday night (US time).
Actress Angel Locsin, who was nominated for her performance as a she-wolf in ABS-CBN teleserye "Lobo," failed to grab the best actress award.
In a phone interview with abs-cbnNEWS.com, Locsin’s talent manager Becky Aguila, who was with the actress during the awards night in New York, said the Filipino actress lost to Julie Walters (A Short Stay in Switzerland, BBC, United Kingdom).
Two other nominees from the Philippines - ABS-CBN's "Kahit Isang Saglit" (A Time For Us) and GMA Network’s “Magdusa Ka” – were also unsuccessful. The two television series have been nominated under the telenovela category. The prize was given to Brazil’s “India-A Love Story.”
Even though Locsin did not win the prize, Aguila said “it was a very nice, wonderful and memorable experience for her.”
Aguila added that her ward was very proud to represent the Philippines in the prestigious competition.
Crowd favorite
Locsin is the second Filipina to be nominated under the best actress category in the competition. In 1989, Tessie Tomas was nominated for her role as former first lady Imelda Marcos in “A Dangerous Life.”
Aguila shared that Locsin was one of the crowd favorites in the red carpet. She was also the youngest nominee, according to the talent manager.
“She really stands out dahil ang ganda ng long gown niya. Everyone is staring at her. Everybody is staring at her gown,” Aguila added.
The actress’ gown was designed by Michael Cinco and is said to be worth P1 million, Aguila said. The gown weighs almost 6 kilos, with a lot of beads and Swarovski crystals.
Prior to the awards night, Locsin told ABS-CBN North America News Bureau that she was not expecting anything. She said she was happy just to be recognized by an international award giving body.
“Para sa akin hindi nagtatapos yan dito. Bilang artista, isang chapter pa lang ito. After nito move on ka, mag-research ka ulit sa bago mong character. Pero siyempre nakatulong ito para ma-inspire ka pa,” she added.
Gala event
According to the Web site of International Emmy Awards, the winners came from 6 countries across Europe, Asia and South America.
Nominees from the United Kingdom won in 5 out of 10 categories. This year, Brazil made history by taking home their first ever International Emmy Award for telenovela “India-A Love Story.”
A thousand international entertainment professionals and media executives attended the gala event, which was hosted by UK television star Graham Norton.
Presenters included Ed Westwick, Edie Falco, Alexa Chung, Moby, Katharine McPhee, Rachel Roy, Stephanie March, Keke Palmer, Matt Bomer, Matthew Rhys, Paul Schulze, Paula Zahn, Barbara Walters and Henry Kissinger.
“We congratulate tonight’s winners for their outstanding achievements. All the nominated programs and performances are a true inspiration for all of us in the industry and for audiences worldwide,” said academy president and chief executive officer Bruce Paisner.
Sir David Frost was also presented with the 2009 International Emmy Founders Award by legendary journalist Barbara Walters. Frost is one of the preeminent television figures of the 20th century, producing and hosting shows for more than 40 years.
