THRILLMAKER: Angeline Quinto: In threes

It’s been a little over 10 years since Angeline Quinto, dubbed the local music industry’s “Power Diva,” won the top plum in Star Power: Sharon’s Search for The Next Female Pop Superstar in 2011. Since then, after the release of her first song, “Patuloy ang Pangarap,” she has recorded a string of her own hits and even managed to claim the title “The Philippines’ Queen of Teleserye and Movie Theme Songs.” A multi-talented performer, she also has several movies and teleseryes tucked in her belt as well as a number of SRO concerts in some of the country’s most prestigious venues.

The Thrillmaker recently caught up with her in one of those live performances, this time, at the Newport Performing Arts Theater for her thanksgiving show aptly titled: 10Q or “Ten Years of Quinto.” With just a very little time to thoroughly discuss the most memorable details of her first ten years in show business, the Thrillmaker decided to talk with the “Pop Superstar” in threes, to get an abbreviated synopsis of her colorful life story since hitting the limelight.

THRILLMAKER: Congratulations, Angeline. In three words, how would you describe your first 10 years in show business?

ANGELINE QUINTO: Mahirap, Blessed at Tagumpay. Hindi ito naging madali kasi marami talagang pagsubok na dumaan sa akin. And then sa lahat ng mga blessings na dumadating sa akin mas nagkakaroon ako ng inspirasyon para magpatuloy and after nun, nagiging tagumpay lahat.

THRILLMAKER: That’s an interesting combination. How hard was it really for an Angeline Quinto to go this far?

ANGELINE QUINTO: Naaalala ko kasi kung paano ako nag-umpisa. Alam kong hindi madali. Kung meron ka talagang dream, kung meron ka talagang pangarap, kailangan mong pahalagahan yung pangarap na yun. Hindi pwedeng mangangarap ka lang. Kailangan mong pagtrabahuhan.

THRILLMAKER: Tonight’s show is entitled 10Q or thank you. Name three people you’re most grateful to have in your life.

ANGELINE QUINTO: Unang-una, thank you po sa Panginoon kasi sya naman yung dahilan kung bakit nangyayari lahat ito. Pangalawa, thank you sa lahat ng mga supporters ko na until now andyan sila from the very start po na nag-start ako. Then thank you sa anak ko. Kasi sya po talaga yung pinaka-inspirasyon ko ngayon.

THRILLMAKER: Oh, that’s touching! Please tell us some more how motherhood has changed you.

ANGELINE QUINTO: Simula nung magkaroon ako ng anak, nadiscover ko, napaka-strong ko palang babae. In spite sa lahat ng mga nangyari sa akin, eto ako, nagta-trabaho pa rin ako para sa future ng anak ko. Akala ko kasi di ko kaya maging nanay. Every day nagdadasal ako kung ano purpose ko ngayon, so binigay si Silvio.

THRILLMAKER: Share with us three things that you’d like to see happening in your career in the next ten years.

ANGELINE QUINTO: Sana mas marami pa po akong mga kanta na magawa at makanta para sa mga tao at makapag-bigay inspirasyon sa kanila. Pangalawa, sana mas marami pa akong mga movies, teleserye at mga awards na matanggap. Alam ko naman na hindi magiging madali pero kayang-kaya ko trabahuhin lahat. Pangatlo, bukod sana sa trabaho ko, sana mabigyan ko ng maayos na future yung anak ko.

On behalf of Filipino music fans, let me take his opportunity to return the favor of ten musically amazing years and tell Angeline through this column: “10Q. Thanks for your inspiring music and we wish you even more upbeat tunes in both your professional and personal lives in the many years ahead!”
