Katrina Halili (born Maria Katrina Iren Pe Halili on January 4, 1986) is a Filipina actress, commercial model and music producer. She made her screen debut via StarStruck, but did not gain popularity until playing the antagonist roles in Darna, Majika and MariMar and becoming the protagonist in One Night Only, Gagambino and Magdusa Ka.

[edit] Background

Katrina Halili is an alumna of the StarStruck talent search and the cover girl of leading magazines such as FHM and Maxim Philippines. She was voted as FHM Philippines' sexiest woman for the year 2006 and bagged the title yet again in 2007. She is the first StarStruck contestant to top the FHM Philippines' 100 Sexiest list and the only Filipina celebrity to have won the title twice in a row. She is a three-time FHM Philippines covergirl.^[1] With 123,000 votes, she placed 2nd in 2008 next to Marian Rivera.

[edit] Controversies

In May 2009, videos that show compromising encounters between Halili and Dr. Hayden Kho were distributed over the internet without her consent.^[2] It was supposed that the person behind the leak of the videos to Internet was a certain Eric Johnson Chua, a close friend and fraternity brother of Hayden Kho.^[3] Sen. Ramon Revilla Jr., in his privilege speech, denounced Kho's acts and would file a case for the removal of Dr. Kho's license.^[4] She is also consulting with the women's rights group GABRIELA regarding the legal actions that will be placed against Kho.^[5] She has since attended a Senate Hearing where she denounced Hayden Kho. Recently she filed a criminal case against the mother of Hayden Kho for libel before the Quezon City Prosecutors Office alleging that the latter made malicious remarks against her.^[6] She has also filed against Dr. Kho for violation of Republic 9262 (Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children).

[edit] Rosalinda

After months of barely any work or popularity, she has been chosen as the antagonist of GMA 7's Philippine TV adaptation of Rosalinda (Philippine TV series)(due to the effect of the clamour made by the scandal in which she was involved).

[edit] Rumored Projects

She is rumored to play the lead role in the TV Remake of Carlo J. Caparas's Angela Markado, but there's no confirmation yet whether it is Katrina who will play the lead role, but it is a hundred percent that GMA Network will be doing a remake of Angela Markado soon. She also part as the newest cast of Darna together with Dennis Trillo. She will play Valentina's fully-grown younger sister Serpina.
