Erich Gonzales

MANILA, Philippines — The year 2011 has been a bountiful year for ABS-CBN artist Erich Gonzales. She has been blessed with a lot of projects, among them the Pinoy adaptation of the well-loved Spanish telenovela “Maria la del Barrio.” The teleserye pairs Erich with Enchong Dee.

Another milestone in Erich’s acting career this year is her forthcoming movie “Suddenly It’s Magic” where she is teamed up with Thai superstar Mario Maurer, who came over recently to meet her and the others involved in the movie. (Mario was also special guest during the official launch in the Philippines of Bonchon Chicken.)

Aside from her blossoming acting career, Erich is also a sought-after product endorser. Her latest endorsement project is for Sisters Sanitary Napkins and Pantyliners. Executives of Mega Soft Hygienic Products, maker of Sisters Sanitary Napkins, said they saw in Erich the qualities that would earn them good public perception and acceptance.
