Jolina Marie B. Reyes, better known by her screen name Krystal Reyes (born September 8, 1996 in Barangay Bulac, Santa Maria, Bulacan, Philippines), is a Filipino child actress who is currently a GMA Network contract artist.
Biography
Reyes became famous for her role as the young Krystal in the teledrama Bakekang, a role where she would eventually gain her current screen name. After her short but memorable stint on the said show ended, she landed her first starring role as Princess, one of the two title characters in Princess Charming, another Philippine drama. Her biggest break came when she landed the role of Anghelita in Mga Mata ni Anghelita, a remake of the 1978 Philippine movie of the same title (without the letter H on it) which made famous the late Julie Vega.[1] Fellow child actress Ella Guevara was originally considered for the role, but since Guevara was by then already part of the main cast of another teledrama entitled Impostora, Reyes was able to land the role. Other than her appearances on television, she has also appeared in the film Shake, Rattle & Roll 8.
Reyes attended Grace Christian Academy in Bulac Sta. Maria Bulacan where she was in Grade School. Her busy schedule as a result of her role in Mga Mata ni Anghelita has forced her to miss a number of school days, but through the kind assistance of her teachers she was able to take up the lessons she missed and catch up with her classmates.[2]
Reyes won Best Children's Show Host together with Pia Arcangel and Tonipet Gaba for Art Angel in the 2007 PMPC Star Awards for Television, as well as Best Children's Show. Art Angel again won Best Children's Show in the 2008 and 2009 PMPC Star Awards for Television.
At her adolescent age, she played Lucy in Rosalinda opposite Carla Abellana.
In 2011 she guested in Tween Hearts (as Mallory), Tropang Potchi, Sabadabadog and Wish ko Lang. In the same year she was a mainstay in Munting Heredera.
In 2012, she appeared in Hiram na Puso as Angeline and her comeback drama show Hindi Ka Na Mag-iisa.
She was part of the 2013 remake of the 1996 hit TV series Anna Karenina.
She is the niece of GMA resident director Mark Reyes.
This 2014 she will be part of the upcoming series Carmela.
