It's not everyday that artists get the chance to celebrate their birthday in a unique way simply because most of them are busy with their respective projects but thankfully, GMA Artist Center gives their artists a chance to celebrate their birthday in a more

meaningful way.

Thea Louise Señerez-Tolentino or better known as Thea Tolentino celebrated her birthday last August 13 and she's now 19 years old. She celebrated her birthday that day with a surprise party from her love ones at Jean's Manila Restaurant which is owned by no less than Ms. Jean Garcia who is also Thea's co-star in The Half Sisters.

Thea started her career as one of the winners of the second season of the reality show, Protégé, a reality based artista search, created by GMA Network. Since then, she became a contract artist of GMA and began appearing on their television dramas such as Teen Gen, Anna Karenina and Pyra: Ang Babaeng Apoy. Right now, she wishes that people would continue to support The Half Sisters which has been running for 2 years now and has consistently topped the ratings from Day 1. She feels blessed that she was part of The Half Sisters because it was her biggest project and gave her a lot more recognition and tested her acting career as well.

When asked about love life, Thea said that right now she's focused on her career. But she has crushes and her biggest crush is the JPOP group Yamada which made her bought a concert ticket just to watch them live. There's a lot of things that she love about Japan and one of them is their Manga. She's been to Japan twice and she really loves going there, Japanese guys actually like her too because she told us one experience that one Japanese guy showed some signs that he likes her, this is when they visited Japan for The Half Sisters taping.

Destiny Rose, according to Jeric is one of the projects that he's been looking forward into doing because his role is also a big challenge to him.
