Heart Evangelista becomes Harper's Bazaar Singapore's 1st guest editor
On Instagram, Harper's Bazaar Singapore unveiled its special issue cover featuring the Global Fashion Icon in a striking a pose in a white ensemble by Filipino designer Michael Leyva and styled with high jewelry from Tiffany & Co.
"Ladies and gentlemen, meet our first guest editor: Heart Evangelista," Harper's Bazaar wrote.
From painting to playing the piano, and even to being the creative force behind her Instagram posts, Heart has always been a creative person. The idea of becoming a guest editor for a fashion magazine isn't so far off.
In the digital version of the cover story, Heart said turning 40 has brought her a new sense of clarity and strength rooted in embracing vulnerability and creative freedom.
"Fashion, for me, has always been about resistance. It's about being able to say: I don't have to fit your mold," she said.
The issue, titled "Championing Asia," highlights Asian trailblazers across the region, which includes Heart of course, Michael, and David Guison from the Philippines.
Heart is gearing up for the return of her reality series, "Heart World," which she teased will be filled with revelations.
"Feeling ko madami eh. Sana magandang pasabog pero definitely marami akong good news this season," she said.
The first season of "Heart World" premiered on GMA Network in October 2024 and aired its last episode in January 2025.
"Heart World" gave an exclusive look into her life, such as when she met South Korean actress Song Hye Kyo at Paris Fashion Week 2022.
The reality series also showed a vulnerable side of Heart, as she opened up about being hurt by her most loyal soldiers.

NBA star Ja Morant lights up BGC court in first Manila visit
Be it in Memphis or in Manila, Ja Morant made sure to turn every court into his own playground. The Grizzlies guard did just that in his rare Manila visit as part of his 'Make Then Watch' tour, which is aligned in his effort to connect and interact with local basketball stars. The 25-year-old high-flying guard made a huge entrance before obliging to the fans to hit the 'griddy' dance moves. Morant also watched from the sidelines as Team Barangay and Team La Salle went at it in a four-quarter exhibition game. Team La Salle is composed of alumni Jeron Teng, Ricci Rivero, and Marga Jimenez, while Team Barangay are spearheaded by other Pinoy stars Rhenz Abando, CJ Cansino, Jack Animam, and Andrei Ugaddan. Abando and Ugaddan threw a number of slams with the former NCAA Rookie MVP even getting a high-five from the NBA star. But Morant did not leave without making one of his own, completing an alleyoop dunk off a pass from a member of his camp. Hyped by the crowd, Morant then knocked down another two-handed hammer to close out the friendly game. Before dropping by the Philippines, Morant also made stops in other Asian countries China and Japan. —JKC, GMA Integrated News
