Dish restaurant in Power Plant Makati was sizzling hot with many celebrity guests who were included on the list of the world’s sexiest women. They were Dina Bonnevie, Joyce Jimenez, Jackie Forster, PBA sportscaster Janelle So, and Geneva Cruz.
The Pinay goddesses celebrated their inclusion on the list by attending the gathering. They were a sight to behold!
Also joining the revelry were surprise celebrity guests Samantha Lopez (who was on last year’s list) Nanette Medved and husband Chris Po, Jessica Rodriguez, Rustom Padilla, Mico Palance, Monsour del Rosario, Victor Neri, JM Rodriguez, Joanne Quintas and Domini Primero.
The night was highlighted by performances from the sexy girls of Silk and another up-and-coming band, Divest led by Kulay’s Radha. Adding fun to the event were exciting games from major sponsors that included AXE, San Mig Light, Jag and Caltex Havolien Express Lube. PTV 4 news anchor Shaan Bermudez was the party’s lively host.
The search for the 100 sexiest women began last March. FHM publisher Dennis Del Callar said that the poll was conducted to serve as the magazine’s feedback mechanism. The survey let the public know who Filipino men believe is the woman most worthy of becoming the ultimate FHM babe.
"More importantly, it’s a celebration of sorts. It’s the readers’ way of telling these gorgeous women that they are goddesses," Del Callar said. "After all, to come out in the Top 10 is no easy feat. These women are special because the readers think they are."
FHM also launched its new website (www.fhm.com.ph) in time for the voting. FHM.com was able to gather half a million votes online. Election reached fever pitch when FHM did the rounds of Manila’s top bars to promote the event. Also considered another major breakthrough was the casting of votes through text messaging. SMART Zed service subscribers were able to vote using their mobile phones.
The survey’s results were published as a Special Collector’s Edition accompanying FHM’s July issue.
