Sister’s piggybank launched TV child star’s career

Sometime in December 2011, after arriving home from school, ten-year old Jinkee Magan saw on TV an advertisement that would change her life.  GMA Network announced that it was going to hold auditions for child singers who would star in a new program.  The young dreamer thought that this was her ticket to stardom.  Ever since she saw her idol Regine Velasquez perform on television, she has always wanted to be a TV star herself. Months later, the poor child dreamer becomes a child star and a household name: Roseanne Magan.

Born to be a star

Born Jinkee Mae Magan on February 22, 2002, Roseanne is the sixth of seven children of factory worker Juanito and housewife Rosemarie Magan.  Though neither parent is a professional singer – and so are her siblings – Roseanne has showed signs of being a singing star at a very young age.  At six, she was already competing in amateur singing contests.  Since then, she was joining contests here and there -- from barangay fiestas to mall shows.

“Noong una siyang nagpakita ng interes sa pagkanta, ang napapansin namin e paborito niya yung kanta ng Aegis (a local band),” recalls Roseanne’s father. “Pero ang idol niya talaga ay si Regine (Velasquez).”
