Before she won in Gawad Amerika Foundation
For more than 12 years as an actress in GMA Network, Kris felt dismayed for not receiving any acting award. Now, she aims to work in a project that will further hone her acting skills. In an interview for Hanggang Sa Dulo ng Buhay Ko, she said she will be accepting roles that might give her recognition.
“Yung gusto mo na talaga gumawa ng role na mapapansin ka hindi ‘yong parang nadaanan lang. ‘Yong puwede kang mabigyan ng recognition ‘yon na ‘yong habol ko eh. Like, for so long, every year may show ako, more than 12 na ang shows ko, hindi talaga ako nabibigyan ng award.”
