YouTube sensation Ashley Rivera is FHM’s April 2014 cover girl

Ashley Rivera — the hilarious YouTube sensation also known as Petra Mahalimuyak — is the cover girl of the April 2014 issue of FHM Philippines.

In the cover image shot by photographer Xander Angeles, the petite comedienne wears only a printed black bikini bottom with a pink and blue visor while holding blue and green bubble guns to cover her naked chest.

“People might react to this shoot and say, ‘Now you’re posing for FHM?’ But I was really ready for this,” Ashley tells the magazine’s website.

“I want people to know that I can be more than just Petra. I can do films, shows, and shoots. I want them to see that I can be a kontrabida, a mermaid, or whatever. Just expect more of me. I’ve been praying and I think I deserve a break.”

She thanked her Twitter followers Friday night for appreciating her first sexy pictorial.


The comedienne recently appeared on “Juan Direction”, the TV5 reality show featuring five biracial Filipinos, where she went on a date with half-Irish heartthrob Daniel Marsh.

As Petra, Ashley is the star of a web series for the newly launched compact SUV Ford Ecosport, opposite fellow online celebrity Bogart the Explorer.

Alice Dixson’s cover issue shaping up to be one of FHM’s best sellers for 2013

With copies disappearing from newsstands faster than anyone can say, “I can feel it,” FHM’s December 2013 issue featuring “For Love or Money” star Alice Dixson is on pace to become one of the magazine’s best sellers of the year.

This was what Allan Madrilejos, editor-in-chief of FHM Philippines told InterAksyon in an interview three days after the well-attended autograph signing session of the issue last Saturday at Robinsons Galleria.

“Sales wise, we won’t have a clear picture of how much the issue sold until February or early March pa. But At the rate the issue’s selling sa newsstands at digital newsstands, we’re hoping it sells about 80 plus percent of our total print run and garners at the very least 10,000 digital buys. That’s a solid sales performance that would make the issue one of the year’s top five best selling FHM issues,” he revealed.

Madrilejos added that his estimates may even be conservative as all signs point to a successful pursuit of the actress for their year-end cover issue — something many of Alice’s fans believe was well worth the long wait.

“Sobrang panalo ang feedback about the Alice cover stint. Record-breaking nga ang number of likes sa Facebook fanpage namin at 85,000 per my last count. An estimated 300 persons attended her autograph signing last Saturday, which also makes it one of our heavily-attended sessions this year,” he noted.





Alice’s own official Facebook fan page greatly benefited from her FHM exposure. Prior to the release of the issue, it only had more than 100,000 likes. Now it has more than doubled to 240,000 likes.

Not bad for a bold and sexy career move that Alice has resisted over the years. “Everything that is meant to be—inevitably WILL be,” the 44-year old actress tweeted this writer in reference to her FHM cover shoot.

With all this upward trajectory, Alice could be expected to crack next year’s FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women list in a very big way, possibly the top 10, top 5 or even higher.

“As long as I don’t have to wear anything skimpy, OK lang,” Alice replied when InterAksyon asked her about what she feels about making the list and subsequently gracing the traditional “FHM 100 Sexiest Victory Party” that usually follows the announcement.

Daiana Menezes sizzles onstage during FHM show, clams up backstage

After the much talked about episodes involving alleged domestic abuse and a subsequent failed suicide attempt by husband Benjamin “Benjo” Benaldo, Daiana Menezes took to the ramp Wednesday night for FHM’s 100 Sexiest victory party at the World Trade Center in Pasay City.

Wearing a very skimpy pink outfit, the leggy Brazilian actress-model-host owned the show, receiving more hoots and applause than any other female celebrity during the event.

“I can’t say anything,” Daiana informed the press when asked regarding the latest developments in her personal life. “Work lang po talaga, work lang po talaga,” she kept saying to everyone’s dismay.

Daiana’s husband, former Cagayan de Oro Rep. Benaldo, was found with a gunshot wound on his chest inside his office at the Batasang Pambansa last month days after the sexy star started flooding her Instagram account with controversial posts and pictures hinting at domestic abuse.

Daiana later clarified in a statement read to the media by a Benaldo aide that the reason behind the alleged suicide attempt are the advocacies Benaldo strongly believes in rather than a rift between the couple.







“I can’t talk about it yet,” Daiana replied when asked to comment on her husband’s condition.

Asked when they are planning to come out and face the public, Daiana begged for patience.

“Soon, soon. Magsalita naman po kami, don’t worry,” she said.

She then made an appeal to the public to allow them some privacy during this trying time.

“Please respect my privacy. I love the Philippines, we’re just working,” she said.

Before she got whisked away by security, however, Daiana managed to thank everyone and hoped that they enjoyed the show.

“Life goes on,” she said.
