Young superstar Angel Locsin is on the cover of Metro magazine's October 2009 issue.

The International Emmy-nominated actress is wearing a black number in what could be her most elegant look in a cover of any magazine ever.

After generously donating half-a-million pesos for Ondoy’s victims, a blessing immediately came to Angel Locsin. She just bagged a Best Actress nomination at the 37th International Emmy Awards for her performance in ABS-CBN’s hit television series “Lobo.”

“Para sa akin ‘yong ma-recognize ka bilang isang artista, malaking bagay na ‘yon…. tapos ma-represent mo pa ‘yong Pilipinas at Asia. I’m very proud to be part of ‘Lobo,’” Angel said in an interview with SNN.

The young superstar is competing against Emma De Caunes (“Night Birds,” France); Cecilia Suarez (“Capadocia,” Mexico); and Julie Walters (“A Short Stay in Switzerland”, United Kingdom).

Also featured in the latest issue of Metro magazine are “Fabulous Pieces from 28 of Today’s Best Designers”, “4 Hot Ways to Wear Your Long Hair”, “Dry Spell: How to Get Back in the Sack”, “Inside Australian Fashion Week” and “20 Power Women.”

Metro October issue is now available wherever magazines are sold nationwide.
