In celebration of Women's Month, seasoned actress and Prima Donnas star Aiko Melendez revealed her 10 most beautiful Filipina celebrities.

“Walang kokontra dahil ito, opinion ko 'to, at sa paningin ko,” Aiko said before giving the list of celebrities she found beautiful.

“Kung magkakaaway man 'yung banggitin ko, problema n'yo yun.”

Aiko's first celebrity is none other than Kapuso Primetime Queen Marian Rivera.

She explains, “Napakaprangka niya, 'yung wala siyang pakialam kung ano 'yung sasabihin ng tao sa kanya. 'Yung what you see is what you get.

“And that makes her more even beautiful kasi she's very true to herself. Plus, nung nakita ko siya sa personal, 'yung skin niya ang ganda, ganda, para siyang si Snow White.”

Aiko also revealed an inciden where she got starstruck by Marian in an event they attended together.

“Noong naka-accept ako ng Best Supporting Award sa Atar Awards, nawala ako, nablangko ako,” Aiko told.

“Minsan lang kasi ako na-i-starstruck at isa si Marian Rivera doon sa artista na na-starstruck ako.”

Aiko added that during her acceptance speech, she thanked Marian, who has no part in her movie.

“I was about to accept my award, nakalimutan ko 'yung speech ko,” Aiko said.

“At nabati ko at na-thank you ko si Marian, e wala naman siyang kinalaman sa movie ko.

“Nabanggit ko in front of Dingdong [Dantes], girl crush ko si Marian.”

Included in Aiko's list are Solenn Heussaff, Gretchen Baretto, Dawn Zulueta, Bea Alonzo, Lucy Torres-Gomez, Mariel Padilla, Kathryn Bernardo, Liza Soberano, Julia Barretto, and Maja Salvador.
