For the Best Picture, “10,000 Hours” romped away with the honor. The 2nd Best Picture was “Girl Boy Bakla Tomboy”, while the 3rd was “My Little Bossings.”

Meanwhile, Daniel’s uncle, Robin Padilla has won Best Actor for “10,000 Hours” and Maricel Soriano won Best Actress for “Girl, Boy, Bakla, Tomboy.” Numerous fans of KC Concepcion were wondering why “Boy Golden” did not win Best Story or Best Actress for KC, when the film is a predicted winner.

Daniel Padilla has been tagged as the ‘crush ng bayan’ because of his debonair and dashing looks. He sings with his band, Parking 5, and had a successful concert at the Araneta Coliseum just this year. Daniel, most probably, inherited his artist’s genes from his uncles, Robin, and parents; actors, Carla and Rommel.
