Las Vegas, NV - The highly anticipated six-episode romantic comedy Maid to Shine is set to premiere this Valentine’s Day weekend exclusively on the FilAmTV app on Roku. A heartwarming story about love, music, and self-discovery, this series promises to captivate audiences with its themes of resilience, identity, and the pursuit of dreams.
Directed by Giovannie Espiritu, a Telly-Award winning filmmaker and activist, Maid to Shine is a trailblazing series with a primarily Filipino cast and crew, bringing authentic Filipino- American storytelling to the screen. Espiritu, a performer herself (most recently playing NCIS: Origins, Joni in 911: Lone Star, and Nancy in the campy Tubi original Titanic 666), is known for her commitment to elevating underrepresented voices in media. Her work has been recognized at the Micheaux Film Festival, Women of the World Film Fest, and was honored as 2024 Women Inspiring Nevada by the Las Vegas Weekly.
A Star-Studded Filipino Cast
The series stars Alexis Aubrey and Jojo Riguerra, dynamic performers who frequently share the stage in the Filipino community and have opened for Black Eyed Peas' Apl.de.Ap. Their chemistry and musical talents add an extra layer of authenticity to this heartfelt romantic comedy.
Audiences will also be delighted to see Belinda Panelo, the beloved former MTV Asia VJ, gracing the screen with her presence. Her involvement brings a nostalgic and exciting touch to the series.
Maid to Shine follows Elena Corazon (Aubrey), a hardworking Filipina maid with a hidden gift for singing, and Gabriel Rivera (Riguerra), a famous Filipino pop star searching for something real. Their unexpected connection sets the stage for a touching journey filled with passion, ambition, and the universal longing for love and purpose.
