Big showbiz names don't always make headlines for the right reasons, but sometimes you hear a story that just makes you like someone even more. This is one of those.

When Nour found out she was headed to Cannes for the film Agapito, she realized she didn't have the resources for a proper red carpet gown, being new to the industry at the time. Anne, her co-star, quietly offered to have a gown made for her through designer Mark Bumgarner, without making a big deal or announcement about it.
Fairy god-diosa po talaga siya. Tinulungan niya ako, na hindi niya pina-publicize or whatever.
How did Nour Hooshmand feel wearing the Cannes gown?
Feeling ko, parang princess ako!
Nour said the moment made her feel like royalty, especially knowing someone as established as Anne cared enough to help quietly, expecting nothing in return.
What does Nour Hooshmand admire most about Anne Curtis?
Like, sobrang laki niya, pero sobrang bait niyang tao. Walang showbiz involved.
Nour said Anne's kindness has nothing to do with showbiz politics or image building. It's simply who she is, on top of being one of the biggest names in the industry.
What project are Nour Hooshmand and Anne Curtis working on together?
The two are part of the cast of the nine episode Netflix limited series BuyBust: The Undesirables, led by Anne Curtis and Gerald Anderson. Nour said she plays a character very different from her past roles, and that the long shoot made her close with her co-stars, including Sue Prado.
Where did Nour Hooshmand share this story?
She opened up about it during interviews at two book launches for National Artist Ricky Lee's Quiapo Ilalim, where she was among the actors invited to read excerpts from classic Filipino screenplays alongside names like Angel Aquino, Cristine Reyes, Dimples Romana, and Agot Isidro. Nour said sharing the stage with veteran actors she has long idolized still gives her kilig, even now that she has a few projects of her own under her belt.
