Celebrities have their way of transitioning towards maturity–they accept more ‘mature’ roles, dress and act more like their older contemporaries, and start to get tagged as ‘sexy’ or in Belle Mariano’s case, as the newest ‘Teen Crush ng Bayan.’

Belinda “Belle” Mariano initially appeared in ABS-CBN’s sketch comedy show ‘Goin’ Bulilit.’ Star Magic launched her career as one of their promising young stars. She also appeared in the melodrama series ‘Lorenzo’s Time’ alongside Carmina Villaroel and Zaijan Jaranilla as Charity, the young version of Carmina.

Belle also appeared in ‘Juan Dela Cruz,’ a Coco Martin-starrer, as young Princess Mira and in the remake of ‘Maria Mercedes’ as young Rosario.

Her most recent projects include ‘Pasion de Amor,’ where she starred as the teenage version of Arci Muñoz, ‘On the Wings of Love’ as Tiffany’s teenage character, ‘You’re My Home,’ as young Grace Fontanilla, and in ‘FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano’ as Rachel Tuazon, or the young sister of Joaquin–one of the show’s main antagonists–played by Arjo Atayde.

Belle Mariano also portrayed the young version of Vice President Leni Robredo in ‘Maalaala Mo Kaya’s’ “Toothbrush” episode. Apart from that, she also appeared in numerous episodes of the drama anthology, where she was able to act in a total of seven episodes.

Her latest performance in ‘Maalala Mo Kaya’s’ “Cellphone” episode as the young sweetheart of former child actor Zaijian Jaranilla garnered praises and appreciation from the netizens, who have noticed Belle Mariano’s blooming beauty.

ABS-CBN News reported that the actress, who is currently 14-years-old, is being paired with Zaijan, who is 15-years-old. Many people also appreciate her face and are of the opinion that she can be the next primetime leading lady in television.
