| | Sam Milby Aside from his immediate family, Milby did not grow up with many Filipinos around. Yet the talented Fil-Am was no foreigner to his mother's country. He, along with his family, had visited the Philippines several times before. At one time he did take a shot at Philippine showbusiness. But pressing personal matters then prodded him to return to the States. In his March 2005 return to the Philippines, Milby decided to seriously pursue a career in showbusiness and modeling. At the time, he temporarily stayed with relatives in Bulacan. Everyday he would take the bus to Manila to answer casting calls and auditions for modeling. Results were not always encouraging but his tenacity did yield some fruit. He landed bit roles in certain ads. Then came a big break from Close Up when he starred as their lead in their TV commercial with Barbie Almalbis. His break came when one of the contestants of Pinoy Big Brother volunteered to leave the house for an urgent matter with his family. The show immediately held another audition in order to find a replacement. Milby was encouraged to audition by his then friend and current manager, Erickson Raymundo. Though unfamiliar with the show prior to his audition, he won the favor of the panel of judges and bested 200 plus others. The next day, he was informed of the spot he won in the Big Brother house. In the Big Brother house, he won the affection of many Filipinos with his shyness but obvious pleasant character. But his shyness was often mistaken for alienation, something that his “housemates” had to confront him with. Eventually he was evicted after 49 days. On the set of Maging Sino ka man, he met Anne Curtis. They are both characters from this TV drama, which these two characters fall in love with each other. Just like the characters, Sam and Anne's love story became a reality. However, because of both their Jealousy, it was hard to keep a strong relationship. They have decided to end it. | Average Rating | | Your Rating | Rank 2 out of 11,000+ celebrities 9.63 out of 10 stars 3 votes |
