It seems that there is no stopping FHM Magazine in introducing fresh and hot babe as their cover girl. This time around, its Yam Concepcion as their October 2012 official cover girl! Here's a clip in her interview:
It’s been a long time since we put on the cover a girl who’s entirely new. So we’re guessing
our readers’ first question would be: Who are you?
I am your normal girl, Yam Concepcion! My real name is Lorraine May Concepcion. I got ‘Yam’ from ‘May’, when you read it backwards—so it makes sense, ha ha! My mom actually thought of it.
You’re Viva’s first of a new batch of sexy stars, and a flag bearer at that with the movie Rigodon—we’ll get to that later. Wasn’t there any decision to change your name? There’s a guy named Sam, same surname. You’re Yam. Yam and Sam sounds like a cartoon.
They had wanted to change it actually. My manager, Claire Dela Fuente, wanted something else, like Lorine, or something like it. She actually said that people might mistake my name for Sam Concepcion because it’s not a very serious name.
How old are you? Looking at you we couldn’t be faulted if we said you just turned 18.
I’m 23.
Twenty-three seems ripe enough for a girl to enter show business. But you’re different because there was no teenybopper route for you. You’re going all skin! How are you taking all this in?
I’m a person who likes to challenge myself, to push it to the limit. That’s how you test yourself, see how you deal with everything that comes your way. I’m just trying to be strong and versatile. I’m risking it all, that’s how life is—you have to risk it and go out of your comfort zone, try different things and learn from it.
