Pia Wurtzbach Started As An ABS-CBN Star Circle Talent In 2002 When She Was Only 12 Years Old

DO YOU KNOW that Pia Wurtzbach is part of ABS-CBN’s Star Circle Batch 11 introduced in 2002? Exactly 13 years ago. That was when she was only 12 years old. We remember her as she was the tallest in their batch. She turned 26 on September 24 this year. She’s the eldest winner among our three Miss Universe title holders. Gloria Diaz was only 18 she won the title in 1969 and Margie Moran was 20 years old when she won in 1973.

Pia has a German father and a Pinay mom. She was born in Stuttgart, Germany. She started as a TV commercial model when she was 4 years old. At ABS-CBN, she was then given a local surname: Romero. She was introduced in the short-lived youth oriented show, “K2BU”, and did other shows like “Bora” with the Hunks, “Your Song”, “ASAP” and the soap “Sa Piling Mo”.

But her career as an artista didn’t really prosper that much and so she branched out into becoming a stylist and make-up artist. She even wrote articles on beauty in the Inquirer.
