Kapuso star Sofia Pablo is excited to embrace more mature roles now that she has turned legal age.
During her pre-debut press conference on April 17 at Citadines Roces in Quezon City, Pablo expressed her eagerness for personal and career growth as she enters adulthood.
“Siguro po ngayong 18 na ako, I’m excited for my growth, hindi lang po sa personal, ‘yung parang mas magiging lady-like na kundi pati rin po sa career,” shared the actress.
Although she celebrated her 18th birthday on April 10, she had to postpone her festivities due to her commitments on the set of the Kapuso sitcom ‘Open 24/7.’
Turning 18 opens new opportunities for her as an actress, allowing her to explore a wider range of roles and projects.
“Kasi I know na mas lalawak na ang mga p’wede kong gawin na mga roles at projects. Hindi na siya malilimitahan kasi, ‘Ay hindi pa siya 18, hindi pa p’wede,” she emphasized.
Reflecting on her transition from teen roles, Pablo admitted that she would miss her playful nature the most.
“Of course, siguro mami-miss ko po ‘yung parang p’wede kong ilabas ang pagka-kulit ko talaga na talagang makulit. Kasi kailangan talaga na mas mature, mas lady-like. Siguro ‘yun po ang mami-miss ko, ‘yung talagang pagiging playful ko,” Pablo elaborated.
For her debut celebration, Pablo opted for a tropical Hawaiian theme. Instead of the traditional 18 roses, she chose to have 18 tropical flowers representing the significant men in her life.
