Whatever happened to sexy Anjanette Abayari??

Last time I saw her on TV was a couple of years ago where she had an interview for channel 7 news. She still looked great and she is working in the States as a model. Other than that I have not heard any recent news about her. Maybe she's still embarassed over that drug scandal.

That's too bad, I liked her a lot. I hope she doesn't feel betrayed by her own people because of the actions of a few ultra conservative and super moral government officials.

Going even further:

It's gonna be quite tricky since most of them practically vanished from the scene after the crackdown on bold films...since they mostly used stage names, tracking them down could be a challenge
Title: Re: Where are they now?
Post by: polio8vaccine on Oct 10, 2007 at 09:16 PM
Well I now know what happened to Myra Manibog. There is an interview of her here (http://kerygmafamily.com/view.php?mediaid=157:flv)
I cant believe how young she was when she was doing bold movies.
Title: Re: Where are they now?
Post by: ralfy on Oct 11, 2007 at 12:10 AM
Some of them appeared on a news feature show but I can't remember who (probably Sarsi Emmanuelle and Lala Montelibano).

Coca Nicolas is mentioned here:

I believe I saw her recently in a TV commercial portraying a mother, can't remember what commercial was it though. And yes, he was also one of the most beautiful faces then. Parang ang bango bango at napaka-sariwa nya. Gatas was a perfect movie for her.


Anybody seen Monica Herrera lately?

i tried really hard not to mention those words.  ;D   ;D

i saw her only once in person... and she really fits the bill of her breakout movie. malagatas ang kutis, parang "fresh" milk.  ;)
