When we were kids, we were often asked about what we wanted to be when we grew up. However, as we’ve reached adulthood, there are some of us whose perspectives in life have probably changed, which also led to a switch in aspirations or plans. Some may have found themselves treading on different paths at present, yet they don’t let this hinder them from giving up on their childhood dreams, such as the Kapamilya celebrities featured in this exclusive video!Growing up watching anime and loving it so much, it has been a fantasy of “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/batangquiapo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</a>” actress Gillian Vicencio to become an anime character and live in its realm.For sure, fans of “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pbbgen112024" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11</a>” alumni and new gen loveteam Fyang Smith and JM Ibarra are well aware of their childhood dreams since they’ve already mentioned it a lot of times in their interviews. Big Winner Fyang has always aspired to be a general surgeon, while JM, as his PBB moniker—“Ang Poginsyanong Piloto-be ng Quezon”— suggests is still not giving up on his dream of becoming a pilot. Kapamilya actor Gerald Anderson related how grateful he is that despite having a different career at present, he’s still given opportunities to somehow fulfill his childhood dream of being a basketball player and soldier. Since both of them are still quite new in the entertainment industry, “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/timetodance" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Time To Dance</a>” host Gela Atayde and judge Ken San Jose and are still keen on pursuing their aspirations of making music and acting, respectively. We may know her as a promising singer and actress, but Sheena Belarmino actually wishes to become a teacher someday. Anji Salvacion, on the other hand, wants a happy family for herself as she appreciates how her dad treats her mom well. Although all of them have been doing impressive jobs as hosts of “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pinoy-big-brother-collab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">PBB Celebrity Collab Edition</a>,” did you know that for Bianca Gonzalez, Melai Cantiveros, Robi Domingo, and Alexa Ilacad it wasn’t their dream to become one? Bianca may have been doing it for almost two decades, yet she knows that being a filmmaker is still in her heart, as she’s able to do it via the content that she uploads on her YouTube channel and podcast, both entitled “Paano Ba ‘To?”As she remembers how amazed she was with the computing and typing skills of cashiers, Melai seemingly wants to still try being one. While being a “family man” is something that we may seldom hear from children when asked about what they want to be when they grow up, it has apparently been Robi’s dream that he wishes to happen soon.Alexa Ilacad, on the other hand, doesn’t only have one but three childhood dreams! As someone who was born and grew up in the early 2000s, it has been her aspiration to play the role of Marimar, originally by Mexican actress Thalia. Skydiving is one extreme activity that she fancies doing someday, which she doubts will ever come true since her mom will surely not allow her. But what we’re certain of is that she can definitely win a Best Actress trophy someday with how talented an actress she is. Prior to showbiz, Kim Chiu used to aspire to becoming a bank manager. She may not be able to fulfill it, but she seems to still not be giving up on her little dream of seeing safes or safety vaults where gold bars are kept. Her current loveteam partner and “My Love Will Make You Disappear” co-star Paulo Avelino disclosed that he wanted to be an astronaut as a kid. He may not seem keen on pursuing it anymore, but he aspires to be given the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be aboard a space flight.Whose childhood dream surprised you the most, Kapamilya?
