Zephanie, Kapuso na ulit

Handang-handa na ang Idol Philippines winner na si Zephanie Dimaranan na sumabak sa kanyang pagiging Kapuso. Malalaking project ang nakalinya sa kanya matapos siyang ilunsad bilang pinakabagong miyembro ng Sparkle family ng GMA Network.

“Acting is in my bucketlist,” pag-amin ni Zephanie sa ginanap na “sparkling launch,” last Thursday na first physical press event ng Kapuso network pagkatapos ng mahigit dalawang taon.

“I started (my career) on GMA. Acting po kasi we thought it was a singing contest, ’yun pala teleserye siya about singing contests. But isa po ako sa mga napili ru’n,” pag-alala niya sa soap opera na Biritera, noong 2012.

Bet niyang makatrabaho bilang newest Kapuso ang mga pambato ng network sa biritan na sina Julie Anne San Jose, Lani Misalucha, Mark Bautista at Christian Bautista.

Sina Jake Vargas at Derrick Monasterio naman ang gusto niyang makatrabaho kung acting ang usapan.

“Masaya ako sa bagong chapter. I’m really excited to be back on stage. This is where I want to grow,” ani Zephanie na ang feel na projects ay drama o kaya naman ay teen romance.

Walang boyfriend ang 19-year old na si Zephanie sa totoong buhay.

Aniya, matatangkad at moreno ang type niya kung sakali. Bonus na kung marunong din itong kumanta gaya niya. “May dating ’pag kumakanta siya, lalo na kung OPM or kundiman, iba talaga ang dating,” paliwanag niya.

Kabilang naman sa mga nag-welcome sa kanya sa Kapuso network ay ang executives na sina Gigi Lara at Johnny “Mr. M” Manahan. “We are very happy to welcome Zephanie to the Sparkle family. She will be singing the summer theme for Sparkle so we hope everyone will watch out for that. Her Kapuso family is also excited to welcome Zephanie in All-Out Sundays this Sunday. We really want to harness the powerhouse talent of Ze­phanie, to watch her grow as an artist, and to see her in more programs and projects in GMA,” sey ni Miss Gigi.

Sabi naman ng Cornerstone vice president na si Jeff Vadillo shared, “We are excited, Zephanie will shine even more with our new partnership with Sparkle. Looking forward to new possibilities and platforms where Zephanie can showcase her talents.”
