Kapuso hunk Paulo Avelino, ready to pose naked for a pictorial

Stars Struck IV alum Paulo Avelino has come along way in shaping his body over the years. No wonder why he is more confident now in flaunting what he got.


Recently, the good-looking Kapuso actor went very daring by stripping his clothes off and posing in an underwear for a Penshoppe ad. This makes people ask on how far he would go on being daring.

John Lapuz asked the same question during the "Don't Lie To Me" segment of Showbiz Central (GMA7), last Sunday.

John asked, "Sa palagay niya, masasabi ba niyang ready na siyang mag-all the way o mag-pose nang nude for a pictorial?"

Paulo answered, "Yes"

His answer was reflected as "Truth" on the lie detector used in the show.

Paulo explained there would be ways to make the nude photo to look artistic

"Yes, kasi may mga paraan naman ng paggawa ng ganyang klase na magandang tingnan at maganda sa mata. Yung hindi naman kabastos-bastos tingnan. I'm sure very artistic kung meron man, if ever may gawin akong ganyan,"

Paulo Avelino is currently doing an afternoon teleserye, "Alakdana", on GMA7.
