The twenty (20) official finalists for the Century Tuna Superbods '09 have been announced yesterday and one of them is Marian Rivera's ex-boyfriend Ervic Vijandre (photo).Ervic, 23, from Taguig City, is a model and a basketball player. He was also one of Cosmo's 69 Bachelors for 2008.
Aside from Ervic, this year's line-up of challengers is as exciting as the previous years, especially with the inclusion of familiar faces such as Star Magic Batch 16 member David Nagtalon, Man of the Year Philippines 2005 Joseph Kidwell, one of Metro Mag's Smoking Hot Men of Summer Van Victor Leano and model-actor Rey Talosig, who was a member of SOP's Take 5 Boys.
Among the female finalists, most notable is Paolo Bediones' beauty queen girlfriend Abby Cruz, who is in the news right now due to a Boracay scandal along with two other beauty queens.
Abby recently joined Binibining Pilipinas 2009 but was unplaced. She already participated two years ago in Binibining Pilipinas and was 1st Runner Up. I also saw her auditioning for Miss Philippines Earth 2009.
Joining her as one of the finalists is Fil-Canadian Theresa Fenger who joined a number of beauty pageants and singing contests in Canada. Fenger was also a recording artist in Japan and was crowned Miss Global Teen Canada in 2004.
Ms. Sexy Body 2009 winner Kriska Gonido is also in the list. She was also one of the ASF Dancers in Wowowee. Mr. Wowowee Willie Revillame used to label her as "Paloma".
Cherry Ann Kubota tries her luck once more in a summer bikini competition after placing 1st Runner Up in Mossimo Bikini Summit 2007. She also graced the cover of FHM in November 2008.
Another Binibining Pilipinas contestant is among the finalists this year. Bianca Paz, who was unplaced in the 2009 Binibining Pilipinas pageant, is also the former girlfriend of actor Polo Ravales.
