The year is fast turning out to be hectic for Gillian Vicencio.
She just wrapped up work on “Kumprontasyon,” a play that was staged at the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) Theater.
Gillian received good reviews for her performance and it’s no mean feat as the play also involves some of the best actors in the industry including veteran Romnick Sarmenta.
Buoyed by the positive response, the 23-year-old made clear her eagerness to take on more stage roles in the near future.
Meanwhile, she is busy as the newest endorser of popular health, wellness and beauty brand Beautederm.
She is quite happy about it, noting it is her first.
Gillian shared, “Sobrang masaya kasi first endorsement ko ito, nakakatuwa na kahit baguhan at hindi pa ako ganoong kakilala ay nasama at pinag katiwalaan ako ni Mommy Rei (Anicoche-Tan, Beautederm chief) kasi nga mga A-listers ang mga artistang endorser ng Beautederm…”
Beyond that, Gillian will also be seen in the upcoming Filipino adaptation of the Korean hit under Dreamscape and VIU, “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim,” starring Kim Chiu at Paulo Avelino.
She will be paired there with Yves Flores, her partner in “2 Good 2 Be True” as with “ReTox 2 Be Continued.”
Gillian is excited about it, of course, deeming her partnership with Yves something that she is thankful given the reaction of audiences.
She surely has come a long way.
Note that Gillian started her showbiz career several years ago.
She gained huge notice in 2018 via the film “Eerie” alongside Charo Santos and Bea Alonzo.
Gillian was eventually launched as part of Star Magic’s 2019 batch of new stars together with Belle Mariano, Anthony Jennings, Jeremiah Lisbo, JC Alcantara and Kyle Echarri.
She would go on to join Rise Artists Studio under Star Creatives.
Gillian would land her biggest break only a year later, appearing in “Four Sisters Before The Wedding” with Alexa Ilacad, Charlie Dizon and Belle Mariano.
Last year, Gillian made her presence felt on Netflix via “Kargo,” and “A Very Good Girl.”
It should be said though that 2023 also proved quite challenging for Gillian after she got embroiled in controversy.
She admitted to have been shocked by the turn of events but she chose to simply move forward and bury herself in work.
