MANILA, Philippines - What’s Anne Curtis not doing these days?
After first appearing in a fantasy movie at the age of 12, Anne has come a long way from being the shy mestiza child actress who needed improvement in her Tagalog.
Anne has blossomed into a charming and confident lady, becoming one of the most recognized names in the industry today.
As one of the country’s top celebrity endorsers, Anne also enjoys the honor of being a fashion icon, with her sense of style being emulated by her mostly young followers. Her every move fascinates the country that even her MRT rides make it to the news, thanks to her massive reach and influence on the social networking site Twitter, where she reigns as the most followed Pinoy showbiz personality with over 1.5 million fans.
And just when the public thought she’s already done everything she could, she shocks them with an announcement of an upcoming album. Anne is now also a certified recording artist.
What made Anne finally decide to be a singer?
“My love for singing!” exclaimed the actress. “For those who are nahihiya, I say go lang. Just go for it!”
“I chose all the songs,” Anne said of her upcoming album playfully titled Anne-Bisyosa. “I chose stuff that I grew up listening to.”
Anne will be the first to admit that she is not “singer material.” Still, she grabs every opportunity for her to do things she loves to do — and that is the “unlimited attitude,” making her the perfect face of Smart Communications’ new Unlimited Postpaid Plans.
“Anne proves that when it comes to pursuing dreams or just fulfilling your passions, limits do not exist. The possibilities are endless for those who have the right attitude,” said Smart Mobile marketing head Guido Zaballero. “It was easy for us to choose Anne, as she’s really been with Smart even way back, but she still surprised us with her new Smart Unli Postpaid TVC because we saw another side of her. She just keeps on evolving.”
Anne seems to be equally happy with her TVC. “Sumu-superhero na ako! I’m having a lot of fun even when I did the commercial or when I did the print ad.”
“I always try to tell my fans and friends to go for Smart Unli Postpaid,” she continued. “For a certain amount, you get unlimited calls and texts and you no longer have to worry about reloading.”
Anne is talking about Smart Unli Postpaid available in Plan 299 (unlimited texts to Smart, TNT and Red) and Plan 599 (unlimited calls and texts to Smart, TNT and Red). Both plans come with a free phone.
After becoming the Anne-li girl, are there any more things that Anne wishes to do?
“Business naman. I want to come out with my own lipstick line soon,” said Anne. “I’m also interested in supporting advocacies. My heart is for children. Given the chance to work on something in the future, it’s really going to be for the kids,” she said.
