Sanya Lopez recalls how her showbiz career was kickstarted by Kuya Germs
Sanya Lopez wasn't always the big star we've come to know and love.
In an Instagram post Friday, the actress revealed that she has always dreamt of being an actress but came to believe that it was never going to be her reality.
However, everything changed when she visited her older brother, Jak Roberto, on set one day and met German "Kuya Germs" Moreno, who tragically passed away in 2016.
"Binisita ko lang kuya ko sa taping 'tas bigla pumunta sakin si Kuya Germs," Sanya shared. "Sabi niya sakin, 'Gusto mo mag-artista?'"
Sanya had one of her big breaks when she landed the role of Sang'gre Danaya in the remake of "Encantadia". However, she revealed that she had to audition five times just to get the role.
"Hindi naging madali ang lahat. Medyo nagduda din sila. Siyempre bago ka. Ano ba kaya mong gawin?" she said.
Aside from the support she got from her mom and brother, she said that what helped her was her belief in the waiting process.
"'Pag masyado mo minadali lahat, hindi mo rin magagawa ng maayos mga bagay. Kailangan mo maghintay para mas masarap 'yung makuha mo, mas maganda, mas successful," she said.
Just recently, Sanya was announced as Ginebra's calendar girl for the year 2020.
