[edit] Personal Background

On December 14, 1986 Mark Angelo Herrera was born. His life story was aired in Magpakailanman, right after he won Star Struck. His family used to be well-off but after his 16th birthday his dad invested 1 Million pesos in a company without a liscence and unfortuantely, they were fooled by the company. They got bankrupted. Thus began a major turn-about in Mark's life. He decided to join a reality-based talent-search show of GMA 7 network, and got fortunate enough to be included in the final 14 cut.

[edit] Star Struck Phenomenon

As Mark joined Star Struck, his talent in dancing was enhanced, earning him a nick name of "Bad Boy of the Dance Floor". This talent was the main reason which got him through Rainier Castillo's (1st Runner-Up), seemingly phenomenal fame, and eventually landed him a few votes higher; crowning him one of the 1st Ultimate Star Struck Survivor of Season One. The other winner was Jennylyn Mercado, who became his love team afterwards, and his 1st showbiz girlfriend.

[edit] Mark & Jennylyn

After winning their respective titles, Mark and Jennylyn were eventually teamed together by their mother network, GMA 7. Later, they got involved personally with each as their careers escalated. But unfortunately, Mark seems to have so many girlfriends aside from Jennylyn, that eventually led to their not-so-sad break-up. One of the main reasons was that of Mark courting Ryza Cenon, another Ultimate Survivor of Star Struck in the second season, while still involved with Jennylyn. The said starlet (Ryza Cenon), denied this accusation vehemently, even turning the tables to Jennylyn herself, accusing the famous young actress to have been feeding lies to the local press and media men, even accusing their own mother network GMA 7 in siding with Jennylyn, just because she is more famous than Ryza. Mark also denied this allegation, but then again, he and Jennylyn never got back together.
