MANILA, Philippines – PIPOL mgzn, together with the VP Choice Awards (VPCA), proudly launches two exciting new titles this year: Face of the Year and Sexiest Male & Female of 2025.

The Face of the Year category highlights the country’s most beautiful and handsome personalities, while the Sexiest Male & Female category honors those admired for their charm, confidence, and appeal.
