Sharmaine Ruffa Rama Gutierrez (born June 24, 1974) is a Filipino actress, model, TV host, and beauty pageant titleholder. She won Binibining Pilipinas World 1993 and was second runner-up to Miss World 1993.
As the official representative of her country to the 1993 Miss World pageant held in Sun City, South Africa, on November 27, Gutierrez placed second runner-up to winner Lisa Hanna of Jamaica.
In 1993, Gutierrez was linked to the Brunei beauties affair. She denied being a prostitute, but she also denied having ever been in Brunei, a statement that was contradicted by evidence. The next year, she won best actress at the Manila Film Festival for the sexually explicit movie Loretta: The Woman Who Cut Off Happiness. Investigations revealed that she was not the nominee but had plotted to steal the prize in front of the cameras.
In the late 1980s and 1990s, she did multiple films each year from 1987 to 1998 with Regal Films. She ventured into television again as a regular TV host on the Sunday talk show The Buzz, and then in 2010 with Paparazzi on rival station TV5.
Gutierrez played a supporting role on the 2023 Philippine romantic drama series Can't Buy Me Love.
In 2003, she married Yilmaz Bektas, a Turkish businessman. They have two daughters, Lorin, who is studying at Pepperdine University in the United States, and Venice. They announced their separation through a joint statement on May 8, 2007. The annulment was granted on February 24, 2012.
In 2022, Gutierrez graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Communication Arts from Philippine Women's University and is enrolled in Master of Communication Arts.
Gutierrez resides in Ayala Alabang, Muntinlupa. In July 2022, Gutierrez was accused of dismissing two from her residence, which she denied. The workers filed a complaint with the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), alleging unpaid wages and other claims. She was ordered to pay the workers a total of Philippine peso13,299.92 (US$233.16).
In June 2024, Gutierrez revealed her serious relationship with Herbert Bautista. They first dated during production of the 2020 Philippine romantic comedy The House Arrest of Us.
