“Ako ‘yung matabang mukhang patatas.”
As Emma on The Killer Bride, Janella Salvador is haunted by a past that does not belong to her. Possessed by Camila (Maja Salvador), also known as “Killer Bride”, she will exact revenge against the people who framed and destroyed the life of an innocent woman. But in this throwback challenge, we promise that there is only one past and it is Janella’s. What stories will she reveal?
Starting off in 2003, we get to meet Sara. She is the actress’ only first cousin which is why they easily became close. Aside from celebrating special occasions together, they would also wear matching clothes. Now, a lot has changed. Aside from Sara’s hair straightening out, she has a baby. Janella visited them in San Francisco two years ago.
“At ‘yang mukhang patatas pa rin, ako ‘yan,” she described herself in another old photo. Already there were signs that she would turn out to be an introvert, “Nage-enjoy silang lahat. Ako, parang iniisip ko lang gusto ko na kainin ‘yung cake.” She also shared that at two years old, she had to wear clothes for a 10-year-old because of how big she was.
Moving on to her pre-teen years, she was a cheerleader for the all-girls school St. Paul College, Pasig. Like most people her age, she too went through a jejemon phase and was speechless when the photos were uncovered. This was around the time she was working on the hit Be Careful with My Heart. “Ba’t ko pinost ‘yan?” she asked herself. It was for this series that she won her first PMPC Star Awards for Telesivion.
The timeline ends at her debut. For most ladies, this is one of the biggest days of their life. Yet, in her case, it almost did not push through. “Tinamad na ko mag-prepare,” she explained. Still, her mother surprised her.
Pictures evoke many emotions. Some of them may be embarrassing but they are personal treasures. What will continue to evoke Camila’s rage? Do not miss the surprises on The Killer Bride, Mondays to Fridays on Primetime Bida!
