The leading men’s magazine in the land greets the New Year with a groundbreaking milestone: the 150^th issue. For such a landmark moment, no less than primetime goddess Marian Rivera graces the cover—a first in FHM Philippines history.

Marian has long been at the top of FHM’s cover girl wish list, since the magazine crowned her the Sexiest Woman in the World in 2008. “The clamor for her has been very strong and persistent; plus, she has consistently been up there in the Top 5 of FHM's 100 Sexiest,” Associate Publisher Chad Rosario reveals. “When we finally got her to headline our 150th issue, we couldn’t be any happier.”

And that’s just the cover.

FHM 150 boasts special sections and stories that make it a must-have for the FHM fan. The issue pays homage to the Geniuses who have become peerless masters at their craft, such as Ely Buendia, Michael V, Lourd de Veyra, Erik Matti, Eddie Garcia, and Kiefer Ravena. No FHM issue is complete without sexy sirens, of which FHM 150 has in droves: the Icons (Aubrey Miles, Maui Taylor, Francine Prieto, Katya Santos, Paloma, and more) and the Top Models (Ornusa Cadness, Regine Angeles, Sanya Smith, Daiana Menezes, and more). Long-time followers will also be thrilled to witness the comeback of classic FHM columns and features like Girls on the Sofa, Miss FHM by Asia Agcaoili, and Mano A Mano.


FHM has come a long way since it first captured the Pinoy male’s fancy in 2000 with exquisite covers of beautiful women, a list that has grown to include today’s biggest stars such as Angel Locsin, Angelica Panganiban, Cristine Reyes, and now, Marian Rivera. “Aside from the sexy women, we’ve also taken a huge step forward in uplifting the quality of the magazine by training the spotlight as well on other facets that constitute male lifestyle, such as sports, fashion, music, humor, and yes—even grooming,” Rosario says.

“To still be around after over a decade and be constantly on top are gratifying indicators that we have a good product in our hands,” Rosario concludes.

FHM 150 hits newsstands, bookstores, and supermarkets nationwide this week. A digital edition is available via the Summit Newsstand.
