Her October 29, 2002 FHM photo shoot in a two-piece bikini for FHM
Philippines on top of EDSA-Shaw flyover in Mandaluyong City stirred
controversy. Mandaluyong City Mayor Benhur Abalos filed charges of
grave scandal against FHM Philippines and Zubiri but he later withdrew
it after Zubiri and Jojo Gabinete, Zubiri's manager, apologized.
Because of the incident, Zubiri became widely-known.
