Aspiring actor Oliver Pangilinan is aiming to become the first pilot in their family. But his childhood dream is to be an actor and is taking steps in that direction.
He finished high school at Angelicum College were a number of celebrities were enrolled. “I wanted to be like them but I didn’t give that much thought since I was still young then,” said the 20-year-old showbiz aspirant.
Besides, Oliver’s parents were not too keen on Oliver’s desire to enter showbiz. They’d rather see him concentrate on his studies and finish a degree.
He was still in Grade 3 when he did videos on himself on YouTube which became a hit even in those videos he was just acting out scenes he saw from movies and television shows.
To give to his acting dream, Oliver joined a dramatic club during his grade school which gave him a chance to do some acting stuff. He was already in Grade 10 in high school when he discovered he can carry a tune as well.
“I remember I joined a singing contests for cadets then and modesty aside, I was declared as the champion,” recalled Oliver who honed his singing talent practicing via karaoke at home.
But he likes to make a mark as an actor, just like his idols Aga Muhlach, Robin Padilla, and Daniel Padilla.
Among actresses, his favorites are Megastar Sharon Cuneta and Kathryn Bernardo.
Oliver joined the search for Bida The Star in KUMU where he had chance to showcase his acting prowess for about four weeks, doing acting exercises everyday under the tutelage of Director Ryan Carlos.
Unfortunately, he didn’t make the cut to make it until the end of the competition. But instead of dampening his spirit, this spurred him to continue to chase his dream of being an actor.
Even if he is busy with his studies at World Citi Colleges Aeronautical School, Oliver continues to sing. He is taking up voice lessons as well and rehearsing his favorite songs of Michael Bolton and Michael Buble.
He describes himself as friendly and soft-hearted as a person. “I consider my best friends as family. I treat them with respect and they do the same thing with me,” said Oliver who’s trying to put on some muscles in preparation for a future video shoot.
He has been in showbiz for only a year but he has been enjoying himself singing in mall shows.
“I am willing to wait until my break comes along,” Oliver said in conclusion.
