MANILA -- Miss Universe 2013 third runner-up Ariella Arida appears on the cover of Metro magazine's "Body" special, which was announced early this week as the ABS-CBN publication's first monthly issue in 2014.
On the issue's cover unveiled by Metro on its Facebook page, the chemistry graduate from Alaminos, Laguna is seen posing in a bikini top with colorful print and a grey bottom -- both, along with a scarf tied to Arida's wrist, said to be Hermes pieces.
The Body Issue, which also marks Metro's 25th anniversary, features several other personalities who "give an all new meaning to bold and daring."
Among those posing sexy for the magazine are Brent Javier, Carlos Agassi, Cristine Reyes, Dennis Trillo, Enrique Gil, Jake Letts, Janna Tee, Jason Abalos, JC de Vera, Jessica Yang, Joaco CaƱas, John James Uy and Rafa Siguion-Reyna.
