A lady of many interests, youthful and charming Bettina has just begun to scratch the surface of her enormous potential.

A print, ramp, and commercial model for fashion magazines, couture designers, and consumer brands, she has a growing number of TV work tucked under her belt.

But it isn’t just in entertainment where she’s making a name for herself. She is also a columnist in a respected daily – sharing insights and molding mindsets.

What she gains more in experience, she will definitely exude as talent.

An illustrator at heart, Tom graduated from The University of Advancing Technology in Temple, Arizona with a degree in Digital Animation.

After exploring his craft, he was on his way to enlist for the US Navy when he went for an audition for a Philippine reality show just to scratch an itching curiosity, saying, “I couldn’t lose anything by trying.” Twenty-four hours later, he received a call from ABS-CBN and flew to Manila to be a Pinoy Big Brother cast member.

With his natural artistry, what happens next is anybody’s guess.

After completing his studies here, Hermes flew to the US to experience “the real world.” After all, he was born in sunny California.

While trying to get a feel for his “native” San Diego, this aspiring leading-man came across the Pinoy Big Brother auditions, which he passed easily. Before he knew it, he was on his way back to the Philippines for a budding career in show business.

Simple yet thoughtful, it’s easy to tell Hermes has what it takes to make it. And he’s doing it by taking chances.

Traveling quite a distance to get her break, Cathy sure made the most of it.

Born in Bohol, a province south of Manila, she won a local beauty contest on her way to a nursing degree.

Likewise, she was a fixture in events as a host and model when popular reality show Pinoy Big Brother came along.

While there, she was sent to Big Brother Finland in an exchange of cast members of the franchise, known as the Big Swap.

That said, she’s definitely going places.

Steadily making an imprint on mainstream entertainment, Megan has stacked quite a body of work at such a young age.

She’s been a VJ, appeared in soaps, done films, and has graced the spreads and covers of the country’s top beauty and fashion magazines. It comes to no surprise, then, that many brands are choosing her to be their endorser or image model.

Apart from acting and being a cover girl, Megan also hosts, sings, and dances. She’s banking on her vast array of talents to make it. And everyone’s taking notice.

While he can pass off for a male model, Isaiah’s niche takes root in his smooth, soulful vocals.

In gigs, Isaiah isn’t shy about sharing his gift to a willing audience. He alludes to pop and rock as his genres of choice – not only as a singer, but also as a guitar virtuoso.

Even at a young age, he has the foresight to learn more about the opportunities his talent could open for him. In college, he chose to major in Music Production.

Looks like we’ll be hearing more about Isaiah in the long run.
