Mario Maurer Fan Conference in Manila

Thai model and actor Mario Maurer will hold a fan conference in Manila next month as part of his endorsement of a local brand.

The 22-year-old half-German, half-Chinese's fan conference will be held at the PICC Plenary Hall on October 28, 2011. It will be sponsored by the local brand, Penshoppe, who has tapped the Thai superstar's services to be its next endorser.

I think the Pinoys will love Mario Maurer for Penshoppe even more than they loved Ed Westwick who is the current endorser of the brand. With his Asian good looks, I'm sure Mario will be closer to the hearts of Pinoys.

Mario Maurer Will Do a Movie With Star Cinema

Mario Maurer, who's quite fluent in English, will come to Manila not only for his Penshoppe endorsement but to do a movie with Star Cinema as well. The cute half-German, half-Chinese model/actor talked to E-Live recently and the taped interview was shown yesterday, August 6, 2011.

In the interview, Mario said he is aware that he has a fan base in the Philippines. He also gets to Twitter to connect to his fans not only in the Philippines but also in Korea and China.

And his impression on Filipina girls? "They're very cute, and they're very nice."

Mario Maurer is the Next Penshoppe Endorser

After bringing Ed Westwick in the Philippines last month, Penshoppe is said to have tapped another good-looking, foreign actor to become its next endorser. But they didn't go all the way across the globe, because the next face of Penshoppe is just from Thailand.

Mario Maurer, who first became popular in the Philippines with the showing of The Love of Siam at the Cinemanila Film Festival a few years back will visit the country soon for his Penshoppe endorsement.

The 22-year-old actor became even more popular with Pinoys when ABS-CBN aired a Tagalized version of his teen flick, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, where he played the role of a high school student. It topped the TV ratings when it was aired.

Now that makes me wonder, is the Tagalized version of Mario's movie Penshoppe's move to make him more popular in the country before they fly him here? Or did they get the idea of signing Mario up for an endorsement when he became so popular due to that Tagalized movie version?
