This is a news bit, not a feature
Who here knows Anna Maria Perez de Tagle? Anna Maria is a Filipina, obviously, who stars as Ashley Dewitt in Disney’s Hannah Montana television series. Trust me, she’s worldwide. I know, I know, Disney is kid stuff, Disney is jail bait, etc., but the thing is, she was cast in the movie-remake version of the 1980’s musical, Fame.
Just a little something, as a Filipino, to be proud of. Anyway, The movie is set to be released by Lakeshore Entertainment, on September 25, 2009. She will play the character, “Joy.”
A short background on Anna Maria
Born on December 23, 1990 in San Francisco, California as Anna Maria Francesca Enriquez Perez de Tagle. She is the daughter of retired Philippine actor Archie Perez de Tagle and is the granddaughter of singer Sylvia La Torre. She is a fourth cousin of Enrique Iglesias.
Additionally, this post led me to discover the identity of another one of her cousins - this south (Alabang, Parañaque) chick whose green eyes are very tough not to notice, and, whom I previously only knew as “Sarita.” More on her on another post.
