Daniela was one of the Journey Hosts in The Clash beginning from the second season until its fourth season. She is currently one of the main hosts in the musical-comedy variety show, All-Out Sundays.
Career
[edit]Daniela's career was first launched in 2005 as "Rita De Guzman Iringan" after appearing in QTV's Pop Star Kids where competed alongside Julie Anne San Jose and emerged as the first grand champion.[1][2] Since winning the contest, she has made numerous appearances on different shows on both GMA and QTV (now GTV).
In 2006, she became one of the members of the singing group Sugarpop, a children's group composed of the five finalists of the first season of PopStar Kids, with Enzo Almario, Julie Anne San Jose, Vanessa Rangadhol, and Cholo Bismonte. The musical group appeared regularly on GMA's concert television show SOP Rules until it disbanded in 2010 after the show was reformatted to Party Pilipinas.[1][3][4]
Daniela began her acting career in several television dramas of GMA Network as "Rita Iringan." Her first acting project was a supporting role in the 2007 action-adventure drama Asian Treasures as Charlene. She later changed her screen name to "Rita de Guzman," using the surname of her maternal grandfather.[5] She gained recognition for her "kontrabida" roles in the dramas Mundo Mo'y Akin and Villa Quintana in 2013, as well as in Impostora in 2017.
In 2015, she was nominated for "Best Supporting Actress" in the 63rd FAMAS Awards for her role in the film Asintado.[1] After deciding to focus on her singing career and signing with GMA Records (now GMA Music), she changed her screen name to Rita Daniela.[5] She released her self-titled debut album on April of the same year.
In 2018, after taking a temporary break from acting in dramas, Daniela starred in a theatrical role as Anna in Eto Na! Musikal nAPO!, a jukebox musical based on the band APO Hiking Society's songs.[6]
Daniela starred in My Special Tatay as Susan "Aubrey" Palomares alongside Ken Chan from 2018 until 2019, wherein she also sung the theme song. Her role later further rose her to prominence for her versatility as an actress. Daniela and Chan's on-screen partnership subsequently spawned the love team "BoBrey," a portmanteau of their characters' names in the drama,[7] which then became "RitKen," a portmanteau of their first names. Daniela and Chan won for "Best Lead Performance (in a TV Series)" and the "German Moreno Power Tandem Award" in the 17th Gawad Tanglaw Awards and 33rd PMPC Star Awards for Television respectively.[1] In 2019, they starred in their first GMA Telebabad drama together in the lead roles of One of the Baes. The two also starred in the 2021 film Huling Ulan sa Tag-Araw, in which Daniela was nominated for "Best Original Song" during the 2022 FAMAS Awards for her performance in the film's theme song, "Umulan Man o Umaraw."[8] The song also won the "Best Original Theme Song" award in the 47th Metro Manila Film Festival.
In addition to acting, Daniela became a host of The Clash and All-Out Sundays in 2020. In 2023, she co-headlined the concert Queendom: Live with Julie Anne San Jose, Hannah Precillas, Thea Astley, Jessica Villarubin, and Mariane Osabel, where she was recognized as "The Undeniable Star."[9][10]
Personal life
[edit]Rita Daniela de Guzman Iringan was born on September 15, 1995, in Quezon City. She is the granddaughter of the late Filipino actor and comedian Teroy de Guzman.[1] She began studying filmmaking in 2013 at the De La Salle–College of Saint Benilde.[6]
In 2018, she revealed that she considered quitting acting to focus as a full-time college student. She temporarily took a break from the entertainment industry some time in between 2015 and 2018. A film student at the time, Daniela struggled to balance her career and education as she was working on her scholarship at Saint Benilde and felt that her studies interfered with her connection with her co-stars.[11] She was encouraged to return by Gina Alajar, a fellow actress and renowned television director, who also directed Let the Love Begin in which Daniela starred in.[6]
In June 2022, Daniela announced on All-Out Sundays her pregnancy. She gave birth via caesarean section to her son, Uno in December of the same year.[12]
On June 15, 2023, she confirmed her separation with her boyfriend after four years of relationship.[13]
In October 2024, Daniela filed lascivious behavior complaint against her co-Kapuso actor, Archie Alemania with the Bacoor City Prosecutor's Office.[14]
