Aminado ang Sparkle star na si Tanya Ramos na halos lahat ng naging roles niya sa mga teleserye ay mean girls. Mula sa Luv Is: Caught in His Arms, hanggang sa In My Dreams, merong pagkakontrabida ang ginagampanan ng young actress.

Ngunit bakit kaya ganu'ng roles ang napupunta sa kaniya?

Sa interview niya sa GMANetwork.com, sinabi ni Tanya na maaaring dahil ito sa kaniyang look na mukhang maldita.

“Honestly, I received a lot of comments saying na I look maldita. I mean, from my friends kasi, before building a friendship, or sometimes when we're making kuwento, they're gonna be like, 'Alam mo, I never expected you to be like this kasi from afar or when I'm looking at you, you're so maldita,'” kuwento ni Tanya.

“I feel it's because of my eyebrows, I have thick, short, eyebrows and honestly, I can't deny that I look maldita in public especially when I'm alone.”

Paliwanag ng aktres, naturally introvert siya kaya naman madalang siyang ngumiti kapag lumalabas ng bahay. Ngunit nang magsimula siya sa entertainment industry ay malaki na ang kaniyang pinagbago.

“I learned how to look more, I don't know if it's the right word, but I learned how to look at people and smile. Even though I'm at the mall, passing by other people, and then accidentally making eye contact, I just smile. I got used to it,” pagpapatuloy ni Tanya.

Kahit na introvert at hindi sanay makihalobilo sa ibang tao, isang bagay na nagtulak noon kay Tanya para pumasok sa entertainment industry, bukod sa pagkakaroon ng pamilya na galing sa showbiz, ay dahil wala siyang ginagawa noong magsimula ang pandemic.

“I was just at home, studying, and we weren't even sure when the schools are gonna resume. So I wanted to give it a shot, I guess. I auditioned behind my dad's back, he doesn't know that I did,” sabi ng aktres.

Sabi pa ng aktres ay paraan din niya ito para makalabas sa kaniyang comfort zone lalo na at meron siyang social anxiety at challenge umano sa kaniya ang bumuo ng conversation sa ibang tao.

“Though aside from that, I really love to dance, I really love to sing, and I have also thought of acting and I just can't stay in one room every day doing that just in front of the mirror. So sabi ko, baka there's something more that I can do to share with people the talent that I have,” pagpapatuloy ni Tanya. --Kristian Eric Javier/GMANetwork.com
