Nora Aunor is Nominated for 10 Best Asian Actresses of the Decade

The country’s Superstar, Nora Aunor, is shortlisted for the 10 Best Asian Actresses of the Decade category of the 2010 Green Globe Film Awards.

Ate Guy is vying for a slot in the Top 10 against a number of actresses across Asia, mostly from China, Japan and Korea. From the shortlisted nominees in 37 categories, she was the only Filipino who made it to the list.

Aside from the 10 Best Asian Actresses of the Decade, there are other award categories in the 2010 Green Globe that celebrate the Asian entertainment scene like Best Asian Film of the Decade, Asian Cultural Ambassador of the Decade, Best International Entertainer from Asia, Best International Actor/Actress from Asia, Best International Film from Asia, etc.

The above-mentioned categories will be voted by the public via an online poll at www.movie-voters.com and it will run until March 5, 2010.

Considered as one of Hollywood’s largest film award programs, the Green Globe Film Awards will culminate on March 23, 2010. 100 Viewers’ Choice Awards being selected by film lovers, critics and movie viewers from around the world will be announced.

You can help Nora Aunor be included in the 10 Best Asian Actresses of the Decade by voting for her and up to 9 other nominees at www.movie-voters.com.

And here’s more. The shortlisted names were not final nominees as the site visitor can still input one name under the choice “Other” if your favorite is not in the list. So we can still nominate other “kababayan” in the Asian Film category.

Here are my suggestions…
