Get to know Ellen Adarna

Although she’s been quite popular in the online scene for a while now, Ellen Adarna has hogged the spotlight recently due to her seemingly unintelligibly interview when she weighed in on the Vhong Navarro mauling. The said interview led to memes about her spreading online.

The 25-year-old actress-model rose to fame long before selfies became a hit by posting excessive amounts of solo photos on now-defunct social media platforms like MySpace and Friendster that led to the birth of many poser accounts that exploited her photos.

However, she quickly backpedaled and claimed that she would juggle being an actress and an employee at the same time.

One of the highlights of Ellen’s acting career happened when she took on the lead role in Gil Portes’s indie film Ang Tag-araw ni Twinkle, an entry to the Sineng Pambansa Film Festival of the Film Development Council of the Philippines September last year. The ever-candid star was even quoted in an interview that her role as a rebellious daughter to a retired military man who entered rehab somehow hit close to home as she confessed having used illegal drugs occasionally during her party girl days...
