In the Philippines, where celebrities are are often put celebrities on a pedestal, and we box them into their TV personas. We tend to forget that they have feelings and that they can change just like the rest of us. Recently, actress Liza Soberano opened up about taking control of her life and pursuing her dreams.
Liza Soberano, recently appeared on her YouTube channel to talk about her career development abroad. In her vlog, she revealed that she's finally taking control of her life and pursuing her dreams that she had always put on hold. She described her journey as exciting, terrifying, anxiety-filled, and confusing. But what she knows for sure is that for the first time, she's finally living her life for herself.
"I've been in six feature films, over 500 episodes of teleseryes and have only really dabbled into three main genres: romance, comedy and drama. And since I was 16, I had only really worked side by side with one main co-star, with the same production company, rotating around the same three directors and during all those years, I was never really asked for my input, my thoughts, my ideas," she said.
Liza Soberano has sacrificed a lot for her career, including her childhood, freedom, and happiness. She presented herself to the world as Liza Soberano, a name that was chosen for her.
"I had always been told what to do, what to wear, what to say and what not to say. I know this was for my own good. It was to protect me and career, but it was a career that I had no say in. A career that in many ways wasn't mine. I didn't even choose the name Liza. It was chosen for me."
She had no say in her career, and she had always been told what to do, what to wear, what to say, and what not to say. She's grateful for showbiz, but she realized that it wasn't entirely hers.
Liza is now taking small steps in reinventing herself. She's been enjoying writing and producing, and she recently revealed that she's based in LA for her Hollywood pursuits.
She cleared that she wasn’t coming from a bad place telling her story. "This is not a story of bitterness or regret. In fact, it's the opposite. It's a story about growth and gratitude. At 24 years old, I was finally given the choice to decide my own path."
Celebrities are Humans too
Liza Soberano's recent vlog is a powerful reminder that celebrities are human beings with their own dreams, aspirations, and struggles. While it's easy to get caught up in their glamorous lives and TV personas, it's important to remember that they have their own battles to fight and personal growth to achieve.
Liza's story is a great example of this. Despite her success in the entertainment industry, she revealed that she had little say in her career and was often told what to do, wear, and say. This lack of control over her own life left her feeling unfulfilled and prompted her to take a step back and reevaluate her priorities. Her decision to take control of her life is something that everyone can relate to. We all have dreams and aspirations that we may have had to put on hold for various reasons. Liza's story shows that it's never too late to pursue those dreams and live the life we want.
Liza Soberano's recent vlog serves as a powerful reminder that celebrities are humans too and that it's important to allow them the freedom to explore and live their lives with their own choices. Her story also highlights the importance of taking control of one's life and pursuing one's dreams, as well as surrounding oneself with supportive and empowering people.
