Her Early Life<\/h2>\n

Born on April 27, 1990, in Dinalupihan, Bataan, Jacqueline Sobreo Rice comes from a multicultural background, with an American father and a Filipino mother.\u00a0 She spent much of her childhood in Olongapo City, Zambales, where she was raised before eventually finding fame in the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n

Career Journey<\/h2>\n

Jackie Rice was still a student at St. Anne Academy in Olongapo City when she took a chance on GMA Network\u2019s reality talent search StarStruck.\u00a0 That gamble paid off in a big way\u2014she emerged as the Ultimate Female Survivor of the show’s third season and officially launched her showbiz career.<\/p>\n

Fresh from her StarStruck victory, Rice landed roles in Love to Love and several other television projects.\u00a0 Her early years in the industry weren’t without a few bumps in the road, however.\u00a0 She was suspended by GMA for six weeks after being seen drinking and smoking in public. Once the suspension ended, she returned to work and quickly got back on track, appearing in Fantastikids, Princess Charming, Fantastic Man, Dyesebel, and Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang.<\/p>\n

By 2009, Rice was steadily building an impressive r\u00e9sum\u00e9.\u00a0 She joined the cast of the remake of Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat sa Akin, playing the younger sister of Maxene Magalona<\/a>‘s character, and appeared alongside Manny Pacquiao in the independent film Sa Ngalan ng Busabos.\u00a0 That same year, she also graced the cover of Maxim magazine’s July issue.\u00a0 To cap off a busy year, she played Helga in Darna and took on a supporting role in the Metro Manila Film Festival entry Ang Darling Kong Aswang.<\/p>\n

Rice kicked off 2010 with another milestone, landing the cover of FHM for the first time.\u00a0 She later earned a spot on the magazine’s list of the 25 Sexiest Women of the Decade, ranking at No. 23. Around the same period, she joined the fantasy series Panday Kids before stepping into lead roles in Dear Friend Presents: Tisay and Ilumina, where she embraced her darker side as a sorceress possessed by a demon.\u00a0 Not exactly the typical girl-next-door role.<\/p>\n

As her career evolved, Rice became increasingly known for playing memorable antagonists.\u00a0 In 2017, she joined the cast of My Love from the Star, the Philippine adaptation of the hit Korean drama.\u00a0 A year later, she portrayed the unhinged Ava, the main villain of Hindi Ko Kayang Iwan Ka.\u00a0 Then in 2019, she switched gears completely as Tiffy, the playful and often hilarious supporting villain in TODA One I Love.<\/p>\n

Rice herself has pointed out just how different those characters were.\u00a0 While Ava was a dark and cold-blooded murderer, Tiffy was flirtatious, comedic, and far less terrifying.\u00a0 It’s proof that whether she’s playing a ruthless villain or a troublemaker with a sense of humor, Rice knows how to keep audiences entertained.<\/p>\n

Facts and Trivia<\/h2>\n
