On November 15, Kapamilya star Michelle Vito revealed that she started her showbiz career with GMA Network.
During an exclusive interview at the ‘Lovers/Liars’ media event at the Luxent Hotel, which LionhearTV covered, Vito recounted how she began in Kapuso productions such as Tween Hearts.
“But of course, I’m very, very thankful kasi, actually, hindi ko po alam if alam ninyo po na before nag-start ako with GMA Network. Nag mga–Tween Hearts ako nag-guest ako, Nita Negrita.
“Pa-support-support lang po talaga ‘yun, kasi nag-school po ako dati and hindi pa po ako super focus sa showbiz po talaga noon. But I really started sa GMA po talaga, before ako mag-ABS.”
She noted how she felt when she got her role in the Kapuso primetime series.
“Siyempre, unang-una talaga, kinabahan ako. ‘Yun muna ‘yung first ko na na-feel. Kasi, ‘yung kinuwento sa akin ni Miss Noreen ‘yung kwento, ‘yung plot, lumabas ako sa comfort zone ko eh. And hindi lang sa story and at the same time, ibang mga tao ang mga makakasama ko, and of course, from Regal na nakatrabaho ko na rin dati.”
She then talked about how she appreciated the opportunity to work with both Kapuso and Regal Entertainment stars.
“So ang sarap din po sa feeling na makakatrabaho ko sila ulit and of course, bagong learnings, of course, ibang tao. Ibang production, and ayun nga po, kung hindi ka kinakabahan, matakot ka. But sobrang happy ako na ‘yung opportunity na binigay nila sa akin, na napakadaming artista diyan, bakit ako?
“And very, very thankful, and blessed, and magagawa ko na lang po siguro as give back ko sa kanila is gawin ‘yung best ko kasi all through out mula umpisa, noong kinakausap pa lang ako tungkol sa plot, hanggang sa dulo. Nagte-taping kami hanggang ngayon, nandoon ‘yung guidance. Nandoon ‘yung kailangan ganito, kailangan ganyan, and hindi ko inano na hala bakit ako sinasabihan, but of course, kailangan na open ka sa sinasabi at tinuturo nila.”
