But what's interesting with their issues is that this generation don't know who exactly is Vivian Velez in showbiz. That's why we are here to talk about the two stars and their individual stories.
We all know that Cristine was a FHM royalty and voted as the Sexiest Woman in 2009. Recently, she married MMA fighter Ali Khatibi and they already have a daughter. On the other hand, Vivian Velez was considered as one of the most desirable women in the country in her younger years. To know her more, let's have a throwback about her.
She was known as a certified bombshell and had a debut in the movie Black Mamba in 1974. Ms. Velez was a legit screen scorcher and the star men's fantasies and dreams. She is like Rosanna Roces or Joyce Jimenez of the '90s.
She also had a film with Fernando Poe Jr. and Gloria Diaz. The movies name was Andalucia.
She became very famous to the point that she was invited to prominent events like basketball games.
Her 64-strong filmography is filled with outrageously-titled classics: Alas Tres Ng Hapon... Lumuhod Ang Maton; Basta Kabit, May Sabit; and Sampung Ahas Ni Eva. Furthermore, Ms. Velez was the original 'Ang Babaing Hinugot Sa Aking Tadyang (1981) before Marian Rivera reprised the role. She was not a talentless sexy star. In fact, she won multiple Best Actress awards.
But in the peak of her career, she was involved in a sex video allegedly involving Ilocos politician Rudy Fariñas. The issue died which eventually became one of the urban legends.
She caught the attention of the public after announcing her marriage to basketball star Paul 'Bong' Alvarez. Their love story was a big deal back then. Unfortunately, they parted ways barely a month in their married life.
Ms. Velez had two sons with former Israeli husband Tuvia Levy after her first marriage. She was also reported to take a break from showbiz.
She returned through Imortal with Angel Locsin as the lead star. She had a stint in Misibis Bay in 2013 where she showed her legendary figure.
