q & a

Why did you enter showbusiness?
Hindi ko inaasahan. Before kasi sumasali na ako sa singing contest ng Eat Bulaga, katuwaan lang tapos pinahanap ako ng director noon.

What do you consider as the turning point in your career?
Siguro nung kinuha na talaga ako sa Eat Bulaga na regular member doon

If you weren’t in showbiz, what kind of career would you have?
I would be in business, selling or marketing ng kung anu-ano

What is your biggest frustration/regret? Sa akin kasi, ang pag-aaral ay napakahalaga. Di kasi ako nakatapos kung kaya gusto ko, mapag-aral at mapagtapos man lang ang mga anak ko.
