Maja Salvador is also a one true Filipina beauty. After her star has dimmed a little bit after an unsuccessful launching movie with Ryan Agoncillo, she made a career rebound when she was paired off with JayR Siaboc. She was suppose to star in the remake of AnnaLiza but the project was shelved. Maja Salvador last appeared in Kapitan Boom with JayR Siaboc and Jon Avila. She is regularly seen every Sunday in the ABS-CBN variety show, ASAP ‘08.

Could this be a sign that Judy Ann Santos star power has been diminished by her “System’s Loss TV Commercials?” Her supposed first major tv appearance and a formal announcement of her engagement to Ryan Agoncillo in Sharon Cuneta’s Sunday show, Sharon, only made it to no.7 in the ratings. The Ryan Agoncillo, Judy Ann Santos appearance in Sharon has been regularly plugged in almost all the tv shows of ABS-CBN from morning till night, in short, it was heavily promoted, but despite it, it only landed a dismal 7th.
