MANILA, Philippines - Outgoing US Ambassador to the Philippines Kristie Kenney is torn between Sam Milby and Piolo Pascual.

In an interview with ABS-CBN's morning show, "Umagang Kay Ganda," Kenney admitted that she is a big fan of both Pascual and Milby. 

She described them as “charming” and “friendly.”

When asked to pick a Filipino actor to take with her to the US, Kenney was faced with a dilemma.

She admitted that she could not choose between "these 2 good looking guys."

"This is hard... Well, between Piolo Pascual and Sam Milby. [Pascual] came to our embassy Christmas party and he's really cute and charming. And we all fell in love with him,” she said.

“Sam is a Fil-Am so I have a little friendship with him on that and he also came to one of our embassy Christmas parties. And in person he is so friendly, warm, easy to get to know. So hard to pick between these 2 good looking guys. So, maybe I'll take 2. One for each pocket," Kenney added.

Aside from her favorite Filipino actors, Kenney also shared that she is impressed by Charice's personality and talent.

"You know I think I have to go with Charice. Although Lea Salonga is, of course, amazing. But Charice Pempengco, just for her age, her bubbly personality, she's amazing," Kenney said.

When asked about her favorite actress, meantime, Kenney replied: "You know that's a harder one because there are a lot of very good ones. You know some of them like Sharon Cuneta, real classic, megastar in her own right. And then some of the younger emerging ones like Sarah Geronimo, who is also a good singer."

Kenney, who will be replaced by Harry Thomas Jr., is leaving the country on January 25.

The charming ambassador also vowed that she would never forget the Philippines.

"If you will ask me to give my words, I will take all of you with me. In my heart, you will always be with me. I love you all," Kenney said.

Kenney, who arrived in the Philippines in 2006, is the first female US ambassador to the country.

She was appointed by former US leader George W. Bush.
