Maui Taylor

Maui Taylor (born Maureen Anne Tupaz Fainsan; 28 June 1983) is a Filipino actress and former member of Viva Hot Babes.

However, it was her controversial performance in the 2001 erotic film Tatarin (inspired by National Artist Nick Joaquin's story, The Summer Solstice) that catapulted her to fame, shedding her previously demure and wholesome image.

Taylor followed up with the movie Ang Huling Birhen sa Lupa, where her performance was well received, earning her a Best Actress nomination, which eventually went to her co-star Ara Mina.

The original group included fellow actresses Katya Santos, Andrea del Rosario, Kristine Jaca, Sheree, Gwen Garci, Jen Rosendahl, Myles Hernandez, and Hazel Cabrera.

In 2012, Taylor returned to acting in the South Korean film The Taste of Money as the tragic maid of a wealthy conglomerate family.
