Angel Locsin all set for the Emmys


Angel Locsin will wear a six-kilo gown when she attends the 2009 Emmy Awards at the Hilton New York Hotel on Nov. 23.

"[At saka] may beads and Swarovski crystals ang gown kaya may kintab kintab," she shared on “Showbiz News Ngayon,” Nov. 19.

Angel is nominated for Best Performance by An Actress for her role in the ABS-CBN fantaserye, “Lobo.” She's the only Asian actress nominated in the category this year.

The actress was visibly elated when interviewed at the airport just before she left for the U.S.

"Nakita ko 'yong concern ng mga tao. Nagpasalamat lang ako kasi isinama nila ako sa prayers nila," she quipped.

Angel is the second Filipina to be nominated by the prestigious award-giving body. In 1989, comedienne Tessie Tomas clinched a nomination when she played Imelda Marcos in "A Dangerous Life."

Does Angel hope to win?

"Sa akin, malaking karangalan na ito [the nomination]. Manalo at matalo, happy na ako. Sa ginawa kong hirap, ang effort ko, malaking bagay na iyon," she said.

"Hindi ko nga talaga siya iniisip. Pero, siyempre, para sa ating mga Fiipino, panahon na para ma-notice tayo."

Angel will walk the Emmy red carpet unescorted. Her “Lobo” co-star Piolo Pascual could not go with her because he is set to attend an event in New York.

"In-ask ko si PJ (Piolo Pascual), pero unavailable siya. Wala naman akong maisip na dapat isama rito kasi siya rin naman ang kasama ko rito sa hirap, eh. Kung hindi siya puwede, wala naman akong maisip na iba," said she.

What about ex-boyfriend Luis Manzano? Did she try asking him?

"Hindi, eh. Wala naman akong niyaya (bukod kay Piolo)."
