First Filipina Ford Supermodel and first-ever Preview cover girl Tweetie de Leon-Gonzalez was honored Friday night, September 6, 2024, at the Manila Marriott Hotel Grand Ballroom during the annual Preview Ball.
Tweetie, who did a crossover from modeling to acting in 1990, is rarely seen in public gatherings. In 1996, she bid goodbye to her role as Faye Kabisote in "Okay Ka, Fairy Ko" and chose to focus more on starting a family.
Now at 57 years old, the former model-actress is an entrepreneur leading her eponymous company TDLG, with its line of jewelry, accessories, bags, and swimwear.
She and husband Jose Ramon "Mon" Gonzalez have been married for 29 years and were blessed with four kids: Sabina (27), Lorenzo (26), Nicolas (24), and Alfonso (19).
On being honored by Preview with the brand's 2024 Style Icon Award, Tweetie said, "I'm so flattered. First of all, I was shocked, I never knew I would receive such recognition at this stage in my life. Very grateful, very flattered like I said.
"I'm happy to be still part of fashion, very much so, especially with Preview whose birth I witnessed," continued Tweetie who was Preview Magazine's cover girl on its maiden issue back in 1995. (Rommel Llanes)
