MANILA, Philippines - The late "Fast and the Furious" actor Paul Walker was the most searched person in the Philippines on Google, followed by actress Neri Naig and noontime show performer EB Babe Yosh.

The two Philippine showbiz personalities figured in video scandals this year while Walker, a Hollywood star, passed away in a car crash last November 30. Naig's boyfriend, Chito Miranda who leads pop band Parokya ni Edgar, was the ninth most searched individual.

Late "Glee" star Cory Monteith, who died from heroin overdose, ranked fourth in the Google Zeitgeist Top 10 people searches in the country.

Comedian Wally Bayola, who left noontime show "Eat Bulaga" after the release of his sex scandal with Yosh, landed fifth.

The Catholic world's Pope Francis, who was elected in May after Pope Benedict XVI stepped down in a historic resignation, ranked eighth in Google Philippines' list.

Miss World third runner-up Ariella Arida and Miss Universe Megan Young also made it to the list, ranking sixth and 10th respectively, after they feted in prestigious beauty pageants.

Searches for Kevin Ware, an American collegiate basketball player on the Louisville Cardinals, suddenly increased in April when he was injured last March 31 after landing from a failed block.
