No other than actress Angel Locsin will receive this year's "Icon" award at the "Us Girls'" annual fashion and style awards, which will happen on Thursday, August 19, at the ICON Bar in Makati City.
Angel was chosen by the staff of the premier lifestyle program on TV because of her incomparable successes in her personal life and career, making her a true epitome of the modern Filipina, just like 2009 Icon awardee KC Concepcion.
Apart from acting trophies and nods from respected award-giving bodies like the PMPC Star Awards and the 37th International Emmy Awards, and multiple commercial endorsements, the actress is also admired for her active involvement in helping fellow Filipinos.
Angel is a staunch supporter of women's group Gabriela and has also launched fund-raising activities for the benefit of people in need. The recently-crowned sexiest female on earth is also known for her deep love for her family and her strength in the face of adversity and controversies.
Aside from Angel, "Us Girls August Awards 2010" will also recognize the best in the industry. Awards will be given to the Stylist of the Year, Make-up Artist of the Year, Face of the Year, and Best Dressed Celebrity.
Nominees include TV stars Andi Eigenmann, Empress Schuck, Erich Gonzalez, Jessy Mendiola, Kristine Hermosa, Marian Rivera, Cristine Reyes, Rhian Ramos, Carla Abellana, Isabel Oli, Megan Young, Heart Evangelista, and Kim Chiu.
The TV premiere of "Us Girls August Awards 2010" will be aired on August 29, 6:30 p.m. on Studio 23. “Us Girls” hosts Villania, Garcia-Kramer, and Aquino will announce who will make up this year’s fashion royalty.
