    June 11, 2009

    While other girls her age went off to college to become nurses, accountants or pre-school teachers, Margaret Nales Wilson opted for a different kind of education‚ how to be herself. And like any regular undergraduate course, it took her around four years to go from punk rock girl to beauty queen to one of today’s hottest TV personalities.

    Now a tough and smart 20-year-old with the poise and confidence of a 30-year-old, she gives us a summary of what she has learned by being bold, crazy and basically doing what she wants to do.

    What Age Requirements?

    Maggie first learned how to ignore age requirements when she joined the MTV VJ Hunt. Though she impressed MTV, she didn’t get the job because she was then only 15, three years short of the minimum age requirement.

    But the music channel liked her so much that when she was about to turn 18, they‚ like the proverbial 20-year-old boy waiting in the car with her girlfriend on the eve of her eighteenth birthday‚ called her and asked her if she wanted to VJ for them. ‘It was kinda cool because they hired me without even asking me to do an audition,’ Maggie says.

    Now with MTV Philippines for three years, she says its the job where she doesn’t feel like she’s working. ‘I love it. Seriously.’ And despite the occupational hazards, like going to concerts, parties and out-of-town events‚ and being paid for it‚ she hopes to be in the job for a few more years.

    Maggie is one of our bombshell ladies gracing the insides of the new UNO fresh from the press. If you check out the stands, you will notice that the magazine is significantly bigger than its predecessor with a glossy paper stock and embossed front cover.
