She started her career on shows like Goin’ Bulilit and with supporting roles in teleseryes. As late as 2019, you wouldn’t call Belle Mariano the next big thing in showbiz. But thanks to hit shows, box office killing movies, and her hard work and perseverance, more people are seeing Belle as a young icon forging her own path in the industry. Despite the fact that haters have tried to drag Belle through the mud, she has remained steadfast and is still standing tall. With Belle recently turning 20, let’s take a look back of some of Belle Mariano’s most iconic moments from her still young career. GETTING THE LEAD FEMALE ROLE OF HE’S INTO HER View this post on Instagram A post shared by Belle Mariano ? (@belle_mariano) When it was announced that He’s Into Her was getting a series adaptation, speculation on who was playing Maxpein del Valle was rampant. When it was revealed in 2019 that Belle Mariano was playing Max, the response was less than joyous. At the time, Belle was not the A-lister that she is now and many people accused her of not being fit to play the role of Max. Despite having a headlining role on TV when she was 10 and appearing in movies for directors Antoinette Jadaone and Mikhail Red, the mean comments came fast and hard. Belle almost let the hate get to her. But as soon as the series started airing, she proved the haters wrong with her exceptional acting. BEING IN A LOVE TEAM WITH DONNY PANGILINAN View this post on Instagram A post shared by Belle Mariano ? (@belle_mariano) Along with the announcement that Belle was playing Max, they also revealed that Donny Pangilinan was playing Deib Enrile, which meant Belle and Donny would be in a love team. That rubbed some people the wrong way considering that Donny at the time was in another love team. But naysayers couldn’t stop the juggernaut that would become DonBelle. Their chemistry is straight fire and both have remained loyal to each other despite their exploding careers. Today, the love team is a cultural force whose fans and admirers stretch all across the globe. HAVING A SUCCESFUL MUSIC CAREER View this post on Instagram A post shared by Belle Mariano ? (@belle_mariano) Belle Mariano is an exceptional actress. But her talent isn’t just limited to her acting abilities. It also extends to her vocal chops as she’s a great singer. Her music career began in earnest in 2021 with singles like Sigurado and Tanging Dahilan, both of which racked millions of streams. In December 2021, she dropped her positively reviewed Daylight album that even included a song that documented her upward trajectory and indirectly referenced her naysayers. This all culminated in her first ever concert of the same name in January 2022. During the concert, she gave us different sides of her musicality from pop, acoustic, ballad, and even a little bit of birit. And she did all those while looking flawless. In 2022, her music career has continued with the emotional track Kahit Na, Kahit Pa. USING HER VOICE AND PLATFORM TO SUPPORT CAUSES SHE BELIEVES IN View this post on Instagram A post shared by Belle Mariano ? (@belle_mariano) Most large and A-list celebrities normally don’t speak up on certain hot button issues. But that isn’t the case for Belle Mariano. On occasion, the Gen Z It-girl has used her star power to promote just causes such as raising money for victims of typhoons. During the 2022 elections, which was the first time she was able to vote, she was a vocal supporter of VP Leni Robredo’s presidential campaign and even appeared in an ad and few of her rallies. Despite the pressures that come with it, Belle didn’t cave to what others were saying and stood by her beliefs and convictions.
