MANILA, Philippines – Gladys Reyes announced on Tuesday, June 16 that she will be teaching acting classes online. The actress, known for playing antagonist roles, said she decided to offer the course because she’s been getting a lot of inquiries.
“Maraming nagtatanong sa akin, pano daw maging kontrabida na di kailangang maging masama sa totoong buhay para lang magampanan ng makatotohanan,” she said. (People have been asking, how can you play antagonist roles without being mean in real life?)
The Madrasta actress shared that she started her career as a child actress after joining Little Miss Philippines in 1984. Being part of the contest led her to a screen test for a movie with no less than Vilma Santos.
“After being a runner-up in Little Ms. Phillipines in Eat Bulaga 1984, yun na start ng movie career ko sa @viva_films. My first screen test was Baby Tsina as Ms. Vilma Santos’ daughter. Had my first acting workshop under the multi-awarded director, the late Direk Marilou-Diaz Abaya. “
