Life and career

[edit]

1988–2002: Early life and career beginnings

[edit]

Sarah Asher Tua Geronimo was born on July 25, 1988 in Santa Cruz, Manila to Divina (née Tua) and Delfin Geronimo.[1] Her father has worked for telecommunications company PLDT, while her mother, an economics major at the University of Santo Tomas, has run many businesses at their home.[2][3] She has two older sisters, Jonnah Rizzie and Sunshine Grace, and a younger brother, Ezekiel Gabriel.[4] She is a born-again Christian and has attended the Victory Christian Fellowship.[5] During her early years, her family had limited financial means; as a result, they relocated to two different houses, still within Santa Cruz, Manila.[2]

Geronimo shared a close relationship with her father, whom she considers as her first "vocal coach"; she learned about the childhood of singer Regine Velasquez, who was immersed neck-deep in the sea during her vocal training. To strengthen her windpipe, her father submerged her in water.[6] At age two, she began singing and has performed in front of a crowd; her singing interest led her to join several amateur singing competitions.[7][4] During her first amateur singing competition, she performed Shirley Bassey's "The Greatest Performance of My Life".[6] According to her mother, she began her career at age four as a cast member in the television series Penpen de Sarapen Ang TV and NEXT.[7][8][9] In 1995, Geronimo appeared in the film Sarah... Ang Munting Prinsesa as a background actor, playing a friend of Camille Prats's character.[4] That same year, she was of the musical performers during the World Youth Day, and competed in 'Sang Linggo nAPO Sila's "Princess Asia".[7]

2002–2005

[edit]

Star for a Night and Popstar: A Dream Come True

[edit]

Geronimo was a junior at the University of Santo Tomas Junior High School when she joined the reality television singing contest Star for a Night, based on the British talent show of the same name.[8][10] Looking back, she recalled that she had auditioned for the contest three times, and was resentful after her second attempt.[9] When she advanced as one of the eleven grand finalists,[11] she dropped out of school in order to focus on her music career.[12][13] She won the competition on March 1, 2003, at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City, performing a cover of Celine Dion's "To Love You More".[14][15] After her win, she was signed to a record deal with Viva Records.[7] She stated that her family was her inspiration despite the challenges her family has been through.[2] Geronimo then transferred to the Angelicum College, which accommodated her professional schedule through homeschooling.[12]

After Star for a Night, Geronimo released her debut studio album Popstar: A Dream Come True. It included the tracks "Sa Iyo", written by Jun Murillo,[16] "Forever's Not Enough", written by Vehnee Saturno,[17] and "Narito" and "If Only", both written by Ogie Alcasid, as well as a cover of Dion's "To Love You More".[17][18] The album has sold over 300,000 units in the Philippines,[19] and was certified 5x platinum.[20] In support of the album, she headlined a concert in October at the Music Museum in Greenhills, San Juan.[21]

At the second inauguration of Gloria Macapagal Arroyo on June 30, 2004 in Manila, Geronimo sang the Philippine National Anthem.[31][32] Later that July, she, Erik Santos and Rachelle Ann Go co-headlined the concert titled Night of the Champions at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City;[33] the production won the Best Major Concert Collaboration at the 2005 Aliw Awards.[34] Her second studio album, Sweet Sixteen, was released that year; it contained the lead single, "How Could You Say You Love Me".[35] The album was certified 2x platinum by the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI).[20] Geronimo's next film appearance that year was in Lastikman: Unang Banat, based on Mars Ravelo's comics superhero Lastikman. It featured her as a love interest of the title character (played by Mark Bautista).[35][26] Director Mac Alejandre noticed Geronimo's improvement over the past year, adding that she had something learned in her career.[26] In 2005, she joined the cast of the teen-oriented television program SCQ Reload: Kilig Ako and hosted the reality shows Little Big Star and Search for the Star in a Million.[28] That September, she headlined her first major concert titled The Other Side at the Araneta Coliseum.[20] Looking back, Geronimo said that she was at first nervous to perform in an arena.[36]
