Supermodel, role model
Ford Supermodel of the World 2010 Danica Flores Magpantay is the newest Tattoo@Home brand ambassador. With her title came a barrage of modeling assignments all over the world.
Prior to winning, she was a Fine Arts student at the University of the Philippines. More than her beauty and accomplishments, Danica’s special bond with her mom Lala (a former supermodel who is now a well-known makeup artist) and her siblings truly make her a standout.
Her strong family values embody the ideals of an empowered youth which makes her the perfect endorser of Globe’s broadband brand, which offers superior and customizable speeds and the best value-for-money plans.
I enjoyed my tete-a-tete with Danica, supermodel and good role model all in one fab package.

How’s your love life?
For now it’s not a priority. I’m filled with love by everyone around me anyway, so I have no lack of it.
What’s love to you?
Love is both an emotion and a decision. When you love just based on your feelings, it would never last.
Would you give up modeling if the man you love would ask you to?
In my opinion, the person I love should never be the one to ask me to stop living my dreams—whether it’s modeling or any career.
Who are the most stylish women/men for you?
There are models na everytime makita ko, gandang ganda talaga ako sa pananamit nila. Like Hanne Gabe, Ria and Coco Rocha.
What’s your fave get-up?
The classic—shorts and T-shirt. I just put on something extra like a nice blazer or cute boots to make it more me.
Any embarrassing moment on or offstage?
At the Ford Supermodel of The World contest in the Philippines. I was about to receive the best in runway award when I tripped on my gown. But I was all smiles when that happened, so I guess it went better than expected.
Describe your ideal man.
A man who loves God and is secure of himself.
What’s your most unforgettable experience?
Traveling is always unforgettable. Every place I go to has a special memory in my heart. Of course winning the Ford Supermodel of the World title and getting my first endorsement, as brand ambassador of Tattoo@Home of Globe.
What’s the hardest part about being a supermodel?
Being away from my family and not holding my own time. I’m just so thankful for technology because I can communicate with them via Skype anytime.
If you were not a supermodel, what would you be?
Maraming marami! I want to have my own business, I want to design, I want to travel.
What are your unfulfilled dreams?
I’ve always wanted to learn how to play the piano. Hanggang ngayon one-hand piano pa rin ang alam ko.
What’s your guilty pleasure?
Chocolates forever.
