Barbie Forteza always dreamed of being an actress. As a child, she often went to auditions in Manila even though she and her family were living in Laguna.
She is very proud of her humble beginnings.
Barbie shared in an episode of GMA Network’s ”Tunay na Buhay” that she used to make boxes of yema with her mother and her father would deliver them to the buyers as he was a tricycle driver then.
Barbie first appeared in GMA Network's remake of the Korean drama ”Stairway to Heaven" in 2009 where she played the role of young Jodi. After that, Barbie's talent and knack for drama and comedy just continued to shine.
Barbie has also starred in top-rating Kapuso shows such as "Meant to Be” in 2017 and ”lnday Will Always Love You" in 2018.
Aside from television, Barbie has also showcased her talents on the big screen. She starred in the 2014 Cinemalaya entry "Mariquina," which earned her a win as Best Supporting Actress, and ”Laut,” which she received an international award for Best Actress at the 36th Fantasporto International Film Festival in Portugal.
Aside from being an actress, Barbie is also a vlogger. She recently received her YouTube Silver Play Button for reaching 100,000 subscribers. Her YouTube videos are all about her travel experiences and makeup and skincare tutorials. Barbie is currently starring in ”Daig Kayo ng Lola Ko”'s month-long episode titled ”Sa ilalim ng Buwan," which had its first airing on January 5 (Sunday). It was immediately a winner, ratings-wise, in its timeslot.
Barbie is set to star in the remake of the 1984 film ”Anak ni Waray Vs. Anak Ni Biday,” which premieres this January 2020 on GMA Telebabad. The shows is the story of friendship between two unlikely characters and how different circumstances and situations will try and tear their relationship apart.
