Then and Now: Nancy Castiglione

Before becoming a celebrity, half-Filipina half-Italian beauty Nancy Jane Castiglione lived with her family in Canada.

Nancy got her start in showbiz when she was discovered by talent agents while she was on vacation in Manila. Like other celebrities, she started appearing in commercials for big brands such as Red Horse, Piattos, and Nestlé Yogurt (pictured above).

Aside from acting, Nancy also proved to be an excellent host when she partnered with Dingdong Dantes for the first ever season of reality-based artista search, 'StarStruck.'

After a short hiatus from showbiz, she reemerged as a songstress and changed her screen name to Nancy Jane. During her time as a singer, she released techno and club songs, some critics even dubbed her as the "Kylie Minogue of the Philippines." Do you remember her catchy debut single "Love Song?"

Nancy now lives in Canada where she is much closer to her family. On February 24, 2017, she celebrated her 36th birthday.

While there, Nancy works as a retail lending officer for Scotiabank Dealer Finance Centre.

In 2015, Nancy carried a full term pregnancy for her third baby.

And in August of that same year, she gave birth to her first daughter Riley Brooke.

She also launched her own YouTube channel where she vlogs about beauty and makeup trends.

With some friends, she also started a business that offers mobile hair and makeup services.

Now at 40, she still remains to be one of showbiz's prettiest.
