concern. From being a sought-after drama actress, to being a well-loved
TV host, to being a box-office queen, to being high-paid celebrity
product endorser, then now being a Hollywood movie star, well this is to
name only a few of her opportunities, she surely has nothing more to
ask for.
Apart from these career opportunities, she still proves that she’s
one of the most well-loved celebrity in the Philippines. A recent list
released by Yes! named as the “most beautiful star of 2012″.
The special issue, launched last July 2, has the star on its cover
and is already available in news- and magazine stands nationwide.
We cant help but felt sad when Anne Curtis Smith bids temporarily goodbye at Its Showtime, The ABSCBN Noontime show. Some speculate she might be judging a modelling search, do another endorsements abroad and some even said its a rift between her co-worker.
But the truth is, ANNE CURTIS left Its Showtime to “Pursue her Dreams”. Yes she left the show to film an international movie, “Blood Ransom.”

But Curtis replied to Diaz via @annecurtissmith: @ogiediaz Mali po kayo
So if Diaz is wrong, what’s that “something to do with pursuing her

Showtime and fans will miss her presence during noontime.
