Veteran TV and movie actress Maria Isabel Lopez became a hot topic on various social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter after attending the 2016 edition of the world-renowned Cannes Film Festival in France. Maria Isabel Lopez turned heads during the event alongside fellow actress Andi Eigenman.
The main reasons why Lopez became a hot topic on social media was because of her scene-stealing gown reportedly designed by veteran designer Albert Andrada, who was instrumental for the memorable blue dress of the winning Miss Universe 2016 title-holder, Miss Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.
The remarkable green gown of the 1982 Bb. Pilipinas-Universe title-holder stood out among the sea of pales dresses and black suits during the event. Aside from her outfit, she got the attentions of netizens because of the way she projected herself on the red carpet.
The award-wining actress of the Golden Screen Award during the year 2009, wherein she won the Best Supporting Actress title on her participation with the film Kinatay, certainly has not lost her touch during the Cannes Film Festival even if it’s been decades since she represented the Philippines in the 1982 Miss Universe beauty pageant held in Lima, Peru.
Maria Isabel Lopez is part of the cast of the Cannes Film Entry Ma’ Rosa entry of veteran director Brillante Mendoza for the festival’s grand prize, the Palme d’Or. The movie Ma’ Rosa features a powerhouse cast of Jaclyn Jose, Julio Diaz, Baron Geisler, Jomari Angeles, Neil Ryan Sese, Mercedes Cabral, Andi Eigenmann and Mark Anthony Fernandez.
