Sanya vows to keep the fire burning
VERSATILE and well-loved Kapuso actress Sanya Lopez is looking forward to more years as a loyal Kapuso as she renews her ties with GMA Artist Center in a contract signing held Thursday, July 29.
The 25-year-old star is now a household name through her notable roles in various projects including the most recent hit GMA primetime series ‘First Yaya’ where she won the hearts of Filipino viewers as the adorable Yaya Melody.
“I’m very, very happy. I didn’t expect na mangyayari ang lahat ng ito. Ang gusto ko lang noon ay basta may trabaho lang. Kahit hindi ako maging bida kasi alam ko naman kung gaano kahirap makapasok sa showbiz. Pero God gave me more than what I prayed for,” she said.
Present during the virtual signing ceremony were GMA Executive Vice President and CFO Felipe S. Yalong, GMA Films, Inc. President and Programming Consultant to the Chairman and CEO Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdes, Senior Vice President for GMA Entertainment Group Lilybeth G. Rasonable, First Vice President and Head of Regional TV and Synergy Oliver B. Amoroso, First Vice President For Drama Productions Redgie A. Magno, Vice President for Corporate Affairs and Communications Angel Javier Cruz, Senior Assistant Vice President for Alternative Productions Gigi Santiago-Lara, Senior Assistant Vice President for Drama Cheryl Ching-Sy, GMA Artist Center Assistant Vice President and Head for Talent Imaging and Marketing Unit Simoun Ferrer, GMA Artist Center Consultant Johnny Manahan, GMA Artist Center Senior Talent Manager Tracy Garcia, and Sanya’s co-manager Frank Mallari.
GMA Chairman and CEO Atty. Felipe L. Gozon is pleased to have a talented actress like Sanya in the Network, “Ako’y nagagalak na napili ni Sanya na manatili sa Kapuso Network sapagka’t siya ay isang homegrown artist at habang tumatagal ay lalong gumagaling. Sa napanood kong First Yaya, napatunayan din niya na siya ay isang versatile artist kaya sa tingin ko, malayo pa ang mararating ni Sanya sa larangan ng pag-aartista.”
Likewise, Mr. M promised the actress that GMA will always support and guide her in the years to come, “Sanya, katulad ng nasabi ng iba, congratulations sa iyo on the renewal of your contract. On behalf of the new GMA Artist Center, we wish to thank you for entrusting your career to us. Sanya, you are a rising star now, belonging to a new breed of artists sa Artist Center,ngayon nakatukod kami sa likod mo. We will take care of you kahit anong mangyari sa karera mo. And I’m sure kung nasaan man siya ngayon, nakangiti nang malaki si Kuya Germs.”
