Maja Salvador walks on the ramp this summer

The crowd stops to watch as she appears at one end of the ramp. Wearing a green mid-rib blouse paired with skinny jeans and gold pumps, she catches everyone's attention as she does the catwalk.

A lot of the spectators were amazed at how teen actress Maja Salvador looked like at Folded and Hung's "Street Cast: Walk the Ramp This Summer" fashion show at the World Trade Center last March 24.

Aside from launching the Street Cast Model Search, Folded and Hung also introduced Maja as their newest and youngest celebrity endorser that night.

"We got Maja because she's the next big star. And she's young, she's very talented, she's very beautiful and sexy. She embodied the brand, so she's a perfect candidate," said Ronald Pineda, president of Folded and Hung Clothing.

From Claudine Barretto and Gelli de Belen, Folded and Hung chose a younger image model like Maja to attract a younger market. According to Pineda, their goal is to reach to the teenage market. He added, "It's our target market. Kuha niya ang market na gusto namin."

Maja, on the other hand, was very thankful for having a different project this time. She said, "Sobrang swerte ko. Wala akong masabi, ito yung dream ko at ito natupad na naman."

Maja did not only catch the attention of movie or TV producers but advertisers as well. It will be remembered that Maja has already endorsed several products in the past. In fact, Folded and Hung is not the first clothing line she has endorsed. She was once an image model for Bobson Clothing Apparel.

Maja's acting skill was first recognized in Maalaala Mo Kaya's "Regalo" with the Star for All Seasons Vilma Santos. After that, more projects were lined up for the teen star. She gave notable performances in the movies Sukob and First Day High. She was even recognized during the recently concluded 23rd Star Awards as the New Movie Actress of the Year.

Right now, Maja is busy doing different shows. She will be starring in an episode of Your Song with Jay-R Siaboc this coming April. Also, she will be part of the third season of The Adventures of Pedro Penduko. The so-called Dance Floor Princess will also be working with Ryan Agoncillo in the movie My Kuya's Wedding.

Since she is now busy doing a lot of projects, does Maja still have time for a love life?

The actress replied, "Actually, lahat naman ng mga nanliligaw sa akin ngayon gusto ko nang pahintuin. Pinahinto ko muna kasi parang lahat na lang ng mga tanong sa akin tungkol sa mga manliligaw, [at] para makapag-focus sa career."
