AS SHE nears her 10th anniversary in showbiz, actress Belle Mariano sat down on Tuesday for the “Tatak Star Magic: Celebrity Conversations” to talk about her journey and plans with ABS-CBN.
Mariano kicked off the interview series of Star Magic where she recalled how she began her career as a child star up to her goals and dreams she is still eyeing to achieve.
Talking with Star Magic head Laurenti Dyogi, the actress, half of the phenomenal love team DonBelle, revealed she wants to play a “bida-kontrabida” role in the future.
“Bida-kontrabida. Gusto ko ma-try kasi paano kaya ‘yun. Try natin, direk,” she told Dyogi, who jokingly doubted if she could be “maldita” given her angelic face.
But it would also be a big step for Mariano, who did not hesitate to admit her goal is to secure an acting award.
Her path to stardom did not go smoothly, as Mariano had to attend over a hundred commercial auditions at a young age just to fulfill her dream of becoming a celebrity.
Fortunately, she got one after being tapped by a local milk brand in the country to be their endorser at the age of nine. That paved the way for Mariano to get into the entertainment scene – most notably on “Goin’ Bulilit.”
But after spending years in the now-defunct children gag show, the actress found it difficult to get her break in a loaded roster of celebrities of ABS-CBN.
And just like what she kept on saying since she starred in the hit series “He’s Into Her” with Donny Pangilinan, her patience paid off eventually.
“Honestly, sa 10 years po na nandito po ako, ang dami rin pong maliliit na natututunan. But all-in-all patience po talaga. You have your own time to bloom. Just trust God, trust the management. Just really have your own time,” she explained.
And now that she is one of the top celebrities of Star Magic, Mariano said that she is enjoying her ride with the talent agency – a family she built for years. (ABS-CBN News)
