MANILA, Philippines — Andrea Brillantes denied the basher's claim that she underwent plastic surgery after she was named the “Most Beautiful Face in 2024” by the UK-based TC Candler and the Independent Critics.
Andrea posted a TikTok video where she wrote "My face card at nine years old.” It was a reply to a netizen who asked, "Baka ginawa ni doc?" The video shows a compilation of Andrea's photos since she was young.
“Pretty since day one baby. Pretty with or without enchantments,” she captioned the post.
Andrea led the seven Filipinas, including former No. 1 Liza Soberano and new entry BINI’s Aiah, in the list of 100 most beautiful faces of 2024 by the global beauty poll.
Andrea bested the likes of Jisoo and Rose of Blacpink, American actress Sydney Sweeney, Korean-American K-pop idol Nancy McDonie, and Chris Evans’ wife, Portuguese actress Alba Baptista.
After Andrea, Janine Gutierrez entered the list for the fourth year at the 28th spot.
Actresses Belle Mariano and Ivana Alawi also figured in the list at the 52nd and 69th spot, respectively.
