KC Concepcion (born Maria Kristina Cassandra Cuneta Concepcion on April 7, 1985) is a Filipina actress and singer. She's the daughter of the Philippine megastar, Sharon Cuneta and actor Gabby Concepcion - the most promising reel couple back in the 80s admired by millions of fans all throughout the country. She graduated at the prestigious American University of Paris with a Bachelor's degree in International Communications, minor in Theater Arts. Instead of pursuing her studies in the United States which she originally thought of doing after her stint in Paris, Concepcion went back home to the Philippines and made her official acting debut. It was in early 2008 when she wowed fans with a special number for her mother's birthday concert, a TV special featuring her last days in Paris, and her first ever television drama special.
Proving to be more than just a beauty, KC is also a dancer, photography enthusiast, model, and a fantastic blogger. In spite all of these achievements, she adds another feather in her hat as being the current National Ambassador Against Hunger of the UN's World Food Program.
KC is "Fabulously Pinay" like her shirt says.
Recently, she traveled to the island of Mindanao, one of the country's intriguing regions. The only island in the Philippines to host a large Muslim population, Mindinao also suffers from high levels of child malnutrition. KC’s journey takes her from a school where local children are celebrating the Islamic New Year to a woman’s cooperative and health centre where food is provided to those in need.
She's indeed beauty and brains, and more. Talented, humble, sincere, intelligent, hardworking - she's the perfect role model for the modern-day Filipina.

Wow!! Didn't really know KC Concepcion was a charity person... well, at least not enough to be our National Ambassador Against Hunger for the UN's program. :)
ReplyDeleteShe's indeed a beauty to behold. A girl who has everything but has a heart to share his time, money and power to the less fortunate. You are a role model to the youth because you use your talent to touch people's lives. You are not like other girls your age who parties and do nothing. Keep up the good work KC. WE LOVE YOU!
