Marian Rivera is an only child that started her stardom by getting herself involved with TV commercials and ramp modeling. Skin White and Sky Flakes were the first two commercials that she made.

Marian said that her destiny brought her into this career and where she will truly succeed and share her talent to a lot of people. Her dream is just simple; she only wants a very good and peaceful life. She wants to have a lovely house and have a business as well so that whenever some things happen to her, she will have a fallback. Marian loves dancing, listening to music most especially love songs. Words that definitely describe Marian would be a very strong and sweet person. Her favorite fashion attire would be rubber shoes, jeans and shirt.

Marian Rivera was able to have some afternoon sopa operas for TAPE Inc. and GMA Network that includes Kung Mamahalin Mo Lang Ako, Agawin Mo Man Ang Lahat and Pinakamamahal which also starred Oyo Boy Sotto. A lot of soap operas then followed after that. Marian became very popular when she had the role of Marimar, Philippine remake. Now, she has been considered as one of the soap opera queens.

TRIVIA: Marian named her two cars Cariño and Amigo. She believes that her cars bring her good luck.
