Angeline Quinto shares lessons from her ‘hero of home’

May 26 ------ Angeline Quinto is celebrating her 15th year in the showbiz industry this year. She belongs to that circle of singers who also have proven their worth as thespians. Last year, she starred in the drama-comedy thriller-mystery movie titled “Ang Happy Homes ni Diane Hilario.”

Her win in the singing reality TV show “Star Power,” however did propel Angeline’s thriving career. “Actually, natutuwa ako kasi lahat ng mga gusto kong ka-trabaho para mabuo itong 15th anniversary ko, sila yung nandun,” said Angeline in a recent brief interview with The STAR after the Heroes of Home awarding ceremony. The singer-actress was among its 16 honorees coming from the entertainment, science and business fields. “Siguro itong concert na ito ay parang selebrasyon siya ng kung ano po ang lahat ng nangyari sa akin sa loob ng labing-limang taon,” added she, also acknowledging the unwavering support of followers, as well as people who have paved the way for her, if one may add.

Angeline wants to thank them through the showcase titled “AQUIN5E” on Aug. 22 at the Araneta Coliseum. Tickets for the concert are now available on TicketNet. “Sa ngayon kasi nag-start na rin kami ng mga ibang preparasyon para sa concert,” said she. “So, ako po talaga kasi ang nag-iisip kung ano bang mga songs na kakantahin ko and marami naman po ang nasanay sa mga teleserye theme songs na kinanta ko sa ABS-CBN, gusto ko may bago.”

Aside from her musical treat, Angeline seems to have a lot on her plate in the forthcoming months. “Actually, medyo na-pre-pressure ako kasi medyo marami po akong gagawin ngayong taon na talagang pinapasalamat ko,” said she, “dahil meron po akong gagawing isang movie na sa Netflix this year.”

And the latest recognition Angeline has received is the Heroes of Home award by the wellness brand Swiss Proli. It honors her inspiring journey as a young mother of two and her contributions to the entertainment industry. “Siguro kung may mga problema man minsan, may mga challenges minsan na kasabay nang pagpapalaki sa bata, sa mga anak nila, hindi naman yun forever,” added she, “and ako kasi kapag dumarating ako sa ganyang point, tinitignan ko lang mga anak ko. Tinitignan ko ang asawa ko, pamilya ko. Dun palang wala na akong karapatang mag-reklamo na meron akong maayos na pamilya at kasama ko sila. Nakakakain kami ng tatlong beses sa isang araw.”

And her Mama Bob has played a significant role for Angeline to pursue her knack for singing and showbiz dreams. “Ang hinding-hindi ko makakalimutan na natutunan ko kay Mama Bob, well, lagi niyang sinasabi sa akin, lagi mong paghihirapan ang mga pangarap mo,” said she. “Sa kanya ko natutunan yun kasi single mom si Mama, eh. So, kaya siguro ganun din naging ang personality ko, parang feeling ko lahat kaya ko, lalo na nung naging nanay ako, and lagi niyang sinasabi kapag pagmamahal ang binigay mo sa isang tao, pagmamahal din ang ibabalik sa’yo. Laging love.”
