Aside from ABS-CBN’s staple of stars, renowned politicians took a break from their duties and snatched a few moments of party time when they attended the recently concluded Star Magic Ball 2017.
Senator Grace Poe-Llamanzares may be a politician but she has showbiz roots, being the daughter of veteran actress Susan Roces and the late King of Philippine movies Fernando Poe, Jr.
The network has revived some of her father’s works, such as “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano” which has already amassed recognitions from various award-giving bodies.
Poe came to the ball in a simple long black sleeveless dress, slitted in the middle to reveal a white fabric inside.
