Esnyr Ranollo has many talents, including the ability to find the newest online leading man to feature on his YouTube series. That was clear during the most recent episode, HIGHSCHOOL HELLWEEK MOMENTS, when Anthony Constantino had a small but memorable role at the end of the episode as potentially the newest red flag love interest. Since then, Anthony has been on the map as one of the latest internet crushes. But beyond his face card and body that looked like it was gifted by the Greek Gods, there’s a lot more to Anthony that makes him a new face on the scene. Get to know more about Anthony Constantino below.
HE’S ORIGINALLY FROM CALIFORNIA

22-year-old Filipino-American model Anthony Constantino was born and raised in California, often spending time between Los Angeles and Hawaii. But even if he grew up half a world away from the Philippines, that doesn’t mean Filipino culture was far from him. He grew up experiencing Filipino culture thanks to his family. Eventually, his connection to his heritage led him to travel to the Philippines to immerse himself in the mainland. Not only is Anthony now a working model in the country, but he’s also committed to learning more about the Philippines, including learning how to speak Tagalog.
HE USED TO WORK IN IT

A first impression of Anthony might make you think that he was always meant to be a model. But his past in California may surprise you. Before he packed his bags to go to the Philippines, Anthony used to work in IT. His previous jobs include being a part-time Technical Specialist at Apple from 2022-2024 and an IT Service Desk Analyst at Main Modeling Agency for seven months.
So what changed for Anthony to go from a 9-5 to going to the Philippines? His heritage. “I wanted to come here to really connect with my roots and see where my family is from. I don’t like it when, if somebody asks who you are, you reply with your work or what you do. Being pure Filipino—that is who I am, and that’s something you can’t take away from me,” shared Anthony in an interview with VMAN SEA, explaining how his Filipino roots pushed him to reconnect and deepen his relationship with the mainland.
HE’S A RISING NAME IN THE LOCAL MODELING SCENE

Anthony may have not have spent much time in the Philippines yet, but he’s quickly making a name for himself in the world of modeling (which he began part-time in 2022), pageantry, and acting.
Aside from his role in Esnyr’s YouTube series, some of Anthony’s notable projects include modeling for some of the biggest local brands, being chosen to model the Philippines’ official uniform for the 2024 Paris Olympics (a fitting feat given Anthony’s own goals of connecting with his roots), and starring in a few of Jayda’s music videos in her Sad Girl Hours era. With several modeling, pageantry, and entertainment gigs under his belt, and more on the way, we have a feeling we’ll be seeing a lot more of Anthony.
HE RECENTLY GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE

Let it be known that even internet it-boys don’t neglect their education. Case in point: Anthony completed his studies when he graduated from the California Lutheran University in 2024 with not one, but two degrees. He finished with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems and Business Administration in Marketing. All brawn and no brains who?
HE’S A GYM BUFF

The Filipino genes inside him went to work given his stunning features and moreno complexion. But it goes without saying that Anthony didn’t get to where he is now without putting in the work at the gym. He often shares his fitness side on social media and is a sports guy, too, most notably being a fan of basketball.
