Bianca plays Juanita Banana

MANILA, Philippines - Bianca Manalo is now TV’s fantastic bida on ABS-CBN’s Hapontastic block via her first lead role in the most nutritious teleserye, Pablo S. Gomez’s Juanita Banana.

Despite being a newbie in the acting arena, Bianca has proven that she has the potential to be the next big star. Her performance in Maalaala Mo Kaya with Rayver Cruz has unleashed the actress in her. Bianca’s natural comic antics which can be seen in her character as Gigi in Magkaribal is one of the chief factors that has pushed the ABS-CBN management to launch the beauty queen-turned-actress to her first major series.

Bianca will be paired up with Rodjun Cruz and Matt Evans who are both excited to be teamed-up with the beauty queen. “By nature kasi nakakatuwa na si Bianca, so paano pa kaya kung magkasama kami ‘di ba? I’m sure this whole project will be a fun experience,” Matt said in an interview. “Baguhan din ako kaya naman excited ako na nabigyan kami ng break ni Bianca after ng stint namin sa Magkaribal,” says Rodjun.
