Though she is not the country’s sexiest, Marian Rivera is still a hot target for men’s magazine, including FHM, to become their covergirl.

In an interview with PEP.ph, FHM Philippines Editor-in-Chief Allan Madrilejos admits that negotiations for Marian’s possible FHM cover appearance are still ongoing. He said that morality clauses in the star’s contracts are the ones preventing Marian from doing a photoshoot for men’s publication.

The FHM team is hopeful that Marian’s forthcoming television role Darna would finally loosen the cordon and convince the young actress to accept their proposal.

Marian recently lost her throne as FHM’s Sexiest Woman this year to sexy star Cristine Reyes. She finished third in the overall ranking for this year’s edition of the annual event. She has also appeared on the cover of the July issue of Rogue.
