Although she has been in show biz for 25 years now, it’s only in recent years that Nikki Valdez has started to feel that she’s finally reaching her peak—like “wine that gets better with age.” | via Allan Policarpio/PDI
“When I was launched as part of Star Circle batch four in 1997, I remember being asked by the media, ‘Where do you see yourself in 10 years?’ I remember saying that I wanted to have longevity, that Gloria Romero was my peg. And I feel like I’m starting to live that dream, now that I have been acting for the past 25 years,” she said. “In a way, I feel like I have only started reaching my peak in terms of the projects I’m doing.
“Things have been going slowly but surely,” added Nikki, who used to be known for playing supporting and “best friend” roles in the late 1990s and early 2000s. “I would rather be someone dependable; someone who’s always in the minds of producers. And I do feel grateful because I don’t run out of projects.”
“My dad and my grandmother on my mom’s side passed away in 2015, only 21 days apart. My lola was in the United States then. I remember that it happened during the week of the Apec summit. Flights were being canceled left and right, and I didn’t know if I would be able to fly to the States and bring my lola home. That’s when I surrendered everything to the Lord … it was a challenging year,” she recalled.
