Kristine Hermosa

Kristine Hermosa Orille (born September 9, 1983 in Quezon City, Philippines) is a Filipina actress. She is born to a Filipino father and a Spanish mestiza mother. She has an older sister named Kathleen, who was the one eager to audition to be a star on ABS-CBN. However, her sister failed to impress the judges on the first screening. It was reluctant younger sister Kristine who was suggested to audition mainly due to her height and beauty. Thought to be just another pretty-faced teenage actress, Kristine rose to fame in the TV series "Pangako Sa 'Yo", which made famous her love team partnership with Jericho Rosales, who later became her real-life boyfriend.

Years before her fame, Kristine started out as Baron Geisler's loveteam partner in Nagbibinata. Later on, she was cast in the heavy drama "Sa Sandaling Kailangan Mo Ako", a weekly series together with Marvin Agustin. She garnered critical acclaim for her performance in this series where she portrayed the role of a woman five years her senior.

Jennylyn Mercado

Jennylyn Pineda Mercado (born May 15, 1987 in Parañaque City, Philippines) is a Filipina actress and singer. She became famous after winning in the first season of StarStruck, a reality-based talent search show of GMA Network in the Philippines.

Jennylyn started out as a recording artist, in 1999, with Alpha Records through the recommendation of her voice coach Susanna Pichay. She was with the singing group G4 of Nonoy Tan. Unfortunately, two of the co-members did not continue on so the group and the planned album was scrapped. But the group was able to record two songs. Though her short experience with the group dismayed her, it developed her love for singing.

After G4, another opportunity was opened to her and that was modeling. She kept herself busy with a number of VTRs from advertising agencies.

Luckily, her patience paid off as she landed an endorsing stint with Bambini cologne and a Ponds television advertisement before that. She also made it to the elite Circle of 10 modeling search along with fellow Starstruck member, Dion Ignacio. She won the Ms. Photogenic title and some cash. But according to her, she was also a contestant in the previous year’s search. She withdrew from it because the cigarette smoke from the bars they visited as part of the search’s promotions made her sick and affected her voice.
