Rosemarie Sonora was launched to stardom in 1966 along with nine other newcomers. They were Gina Pareño, Loretta Marquez, Blanca Gomez, Shirley Moreno, Dindo Fernando, Bert Leroy Jr., Edgar Salcedo, and others Ramil and Pepito Rodriguez. They were called, well, Stars '66.

Rose and Pepito were built up as a loveteam, gaining a big following. But another actor who came a few years later, Ricky Belmonte, became an even more popular partner--on and offcam. Unfortunately, showbiz marriages don't always end up happily.
