With almost two decades in the industry, newcomers sure can take a cue from Yasmien.
Before Las Hermanas comes to an end, Kapuso actress Yasmien Kurdi revealed the greatest lesson she learned in show business.
Yasmien has been active in the industry since winning the inaugural season of GMA Network's reality show StarStruck in 2004.
"Siguro, greatest lesson na natutunan ko all this years, akala ko kasi noon, nung sumali ako sa 'StarStruck,' ang pag-a-artista ay all glam, basta madali lang siya, paganda lang," she said in an interview with GMANetwork.com. "Pero hindi pala."
"Ang pag-a-artista pala ay hard work siya. Minsan you have to get dirty sa screen, kailangan kang papangitin, hindi naman lahat 'yan glam. Hard work talaga, kailangan pag-igihan mo, pag-aralan mo ang bawat eksena, hindi pwedeng sabak ka lang nang sabak sa bawat roles."
For almost two decades, Yasmien played different characters in several of GMA's top-rated shows like HIV-positive Thea Balagtas in Hindi Ko Kayang Iwan Ka, among others.
The 32-year-old actress added, "Isa rin sa natutunan ko, kailangan talaga you have the right attitude towards the people you work with, on- or off-camera man 'yan kasi 'yun 'yung mga taong makakasama mo sa 18 years. 'Yung mga nakasama ko noon pa, nakakasama ko pa rin hanggang ngayon."
