ANNE CURTIS TO SURPRISE DAUGHTER DAHLIA WITH HER WAX FIGURE IN HONG KONG

IT WAS LIKE A FAMILY AFFAIR OF SORTS DURING the grand unveiling of multimedia superstar Anne Curtis' Madame Tussauds wax figure just last Wednesday in Makati.

Her sister Jasmine Curtis-Smith was present as well as her mommy Carmen, who were early birds in the event.

Anne's friends from showbiz like Liz Uy were also in attendance, and others in the fashion industry did not miss the event.

We also saw important people in Anne's showbiz life like manager Veronique Del Rosario-Corpus of Viva Entertainment; Betchay Vidanes; producer Dondon Monteverde; ABS-CBN CEO Carlo Katigbak and chairman Mark Lopez; filmmakers Irene Villamor, Jason Paul Laxamana, and many more.

Select media were in attendance, including yours truly, and we were more than happy to witness yet another milestone in Anne's successful career.

Of course, we did ask why her daughter Dahlia, who is four years old, was not present.

Anne's mom gave a smart reason why she did not bring her. "Big event kasi baka ma-overwhelm!"

Anne has a special surprise for Dahlia, though, which is to take her to Madame Tussauds during their private time as a family.
