Marian is (still) queen of FHM

MANILA, Philippines - Dressed in a flaming-red feathered costume, Marian Rivera emerged with the fiery allure of a carnival queen as she was officially presented as this year’s sexiest at the FHM 100 Sexiest Women in the Philippines victory party.

Marian is the first-ever celebrity to win the title thrice in a row in the annual list determined by votes cast by readers of the men’s magazine.

“Nagpapasalamat ako sa lahat ng taong nagmamahal at sumusuporta sa akin,” the Kapuso primetime queen said during the recent FHM presscon.

“I owe this to everyone who made the 3-peat possible. I’m humbled,” she also posted on her Instagram.

Meanwhile, FHM December 2013 cover girl Alice Dixson was among those who received the loudest cheers from the crowd. The 44-year-old Kapatid star looked lovely as ever as she sashayed on the runway, greeting fans who voted and placed her on this year’s Top 10 sexiest list.

The event was also graced by 2003 Sexiest Woman Diana Zubiri, Bangs Garcia, Aubrey Miles, Ehra Madrigal, Danielle Castaño, Paloma, Divine Smith, Jacq Yu, LJ Reyes, Abby Poblador, Jahziel Manabat, Erika Padilla and Beauty Gonzales, among others.
