From acting to arts and crafts, gaming sessions, and even dreams of becoming a pastry chef, rising teen star Caprice Cayetano is proving that she’s far from limiting herself to just one passion.
Fresh off her reality show win, the 17-year-old actress is embracing what many Gen Zs call their “sidequest era”—trying new hobbies, discovering hidden talents, and simply enjoying the journey without feeling pressured to have everything figured out.
“Whenever I have free time after work, I explore different sidequests,” Caprice shares. “I make bracelets, play mobile games, and hopefully soon, I’ll start baking pastries.”
For Caprice, every hobby reveals a different side of who she is.
One of her favorite creative outlets is bracelet-making, a skill inspired by her mother, who used to create and sell handmade accessories.
“That’s where I realized how patient I can be,” she says. “You string the beads one by one, and when you finish, there’s a different kind of fulfillment.”
Her love for food, meanwhile, comes from her father.
“I’m really excited to try baking pastries. If Daddy is known for his main dishes, maybe someday I’ll be known for pastries,” she laughs.
Like many teenagers, gaming is also part of her downtime.
“I discovered mobile gaming through my cousins, who are also my best friends. They’re my gaming squad.”
Caprice says exploring different interests has helped her discover more about herself—a mindset she believes many in her generation share.
“I think we Gen Zs enjoy having lots of sidequests because they help us discover new things about ourselves and even the paths we may want to pursue.”
That adventurous spirit is also what makes her the perfect fit as the newest face of Smart Prepaid’s Power All offers.
“I’m really happy to be part of the Smart family because I’ve actually been a Smart subscriber since I got my first phone eight years ago,” she says. “Now I get to enjoy it even more as one of the Smart ambassadors.”
Whether she’s scrolling through TikTok, posting carefully curated Instagram photos, or staying connected with fans online, Caprice says music is always part of the experience.
“I love choosing the songs for my posts because they help tell the story and match the vibe of every photo.”
As for what’s next, Caprice isn’t putting herself in a box anytime soon.
Beyond acting, she’s already looking forward to exploring new passions—including vlogging, singing, and whatever exciting “sidequest” comes her way.
Her advice to fellow Gen Zs?
“Keep exploring. Choose sidequests that genuinely make you happy because those experiences help you become the best version of yourself.”
