Leading electronics and consumer brand TCL just recently renewed ties with the Box Office Queen and Asia's Superstar Kathryn Bernardo. The event was witnessed and participated by TCL Executives Shae Xiaoling Yu (the Deputy Marketing Director), Joseph Cernitchez TCL Philippines Brand Manager, and representatives of Kath Ms. Lulu Romero and Francis Kalayaan Vidanes of Vidanes Celebrity Marketing.
Mr. Cernitchez noted how strong their partnership has been with Kathryn and they continued this to remain connected with their consumers, in hopes to inspire greatness even more. Kath was thankful about how TCL has continued to make their products and innovations remain accessible, especially in Filipino homes. Til today, Kathryn loves her TCL QLED Pro TV. She often uses it to watch shows and stream content, something like a refuge despite her busy schedule. She also loves how they make an effort to be part of everyday living, and be part of Filipino homes. She's very excited in what they plan to execute in 2025 as she remains as the face for TCL in the country. You'll see her in TV's, refrigerators, washer and dryers, and other home appliances. It's also smart, and the brand thinks of the Filipino consumer all the time. She's certainly an example on how to "Inspire Greatness".
For more information about TCL and their products, just search for their brand in social channels, and their website tcl.com/ph/en because she will be everywhere with that lovely smile of hers.
Seeing her up close would have made the case of being number 1 in the Most Beautiful Face of the Year a no contest. It's the annual voting list run by TC Candler, a creator based in LA. There have been 7 Filipinas in that list this year but the Top 1 post went to ANDREA BRILLANTES, one of Star Magic's brightest stars.
She's also been given the SPOTLIGHT by the artist agency last week and we got to talk to her a bit about getting the recognition and asked a few more things about what she plans to do this 2025. She's had a pretty lucky 2024, and for sure, ABS-CBN has huge plans for her especially after getting in this really popular list.
We talked to Andrea at the SPOTLIGHT set by Star Magic. They really prepared a lot for this event and interview (mainly to recognize their accomplishments of course!).
Andrea says "I was quite surprised about the video, I didn't know you were going to do that. I tied my hair today because of that list. Last year I was also there but I didn't get the top spot, but this year when I learned about it, I said hala, I'm top 1? I asked my Mom immediately and told her she's got a daughter that made the top spot. But really, I'm so thankful. It's the bragging rights that I could tell my friends now, really happy about it but I couldn't have that in my head, I couldn't wrap my head around it."
She adds "Right now I'm enjoying my free time because I don't have a show, but I've got a ton of things to do especially with business. I set my priorities, but try to also enjoy my youth. I also help with my community, my church, and try to learn a new sport like frisbee. I try to be intentional with my time, try to find some for everything. It's quite precious for me because I have to have energy for it everyday. I try to travel, my schedule is crazy, but want to have a work life balance. I want to manage my time because you can't disappear when you're in this business. I think it's important to have sleep, above anything, no matter how beautiful you are. Now I'm adding veggies to my diet, try to take care of that and what I eat. I also invest in skincare, do makeup, I've been doing it since I was 16 and I think I've got a pretty good grasp of it. If I'm tired, I just do my routine. I try to fit it in one hour or 30 minutes just to take care of myself."
"You don't just have to be pretty outside, I try my best to be good, my attitude. I think making your heart pretty is better."
With all the things she's been through, she knows herself even more. She plans to do more shows, programs, movies, even other things outside showbiz. It's her experience that makes her an even better person, and we saw that during the SPOTLIGHT event with her.
