Get ready to discover the real story behind Pauleen Luna—far beyond her iconic persona on Eat Bulaga!. Here’s everything you need to know about the talented actress, television host, and showbiz icon whose life is as compelling as her on-screen presence.

From Little Miss to Household Name
Pauleen Marie Javier Luna began her journey in the spotlight at the tender age of six, competing in Eat Bulaga!’s “Little Miss Philippines” in 1995. Her charm caught the eye of producers, and she quickly became known as Baby Poleng when she joined the show’s hosting team in 2005—a role she carried for nearly two decades.
A Rising Star Beyond Variety Shows

At just 13, Pauleen transitioned into acting after joining ABS-CBN’s Star Magic in 2002. Soon, she graced GMA Network shows like Etheria, Encantadia, and the popular Ako si Kim Samsoon, showing off her range across fantasy, drama, and romance. From there, she tackled memorable roles in Luna Mystika, Adik Sa’Yo, Ikaw Sana, and Trudis Liit, solidifying her acting prowess.
Awards, Accolades, and Alluring Presence
Pauleen’s talent didn’t go unnoticed. She won Best New Female TV Personality for her role in Marina, and earned Best Single Performance by an Actress for a Magpakailanman episode. Her allure also made her a frequent name in FHM Philippines’ 100 Sexiest Women lists, topping at #9 in 2006 and remaining a recurring fixture.
The Woman Behind the Fame
Born on November 10, 1988, in Las Piñas, Pauleen is connected to showbiz royalty—she is a niece to the Santiago clan—but she chose to make her own mark in the industry. In 2016, she married longtime partner and famed host Vic Sotto. Together, they now have two daughters: Talitha “Tali” (born 2017) and Thia “Mochi” Marceline (born 2024).
From hosting Eat Bulaga! for nearly two decades, Pauleen ventured into new terrains, co-hosting Chika, Besh! on TV5 in 2020–2021, and even voicing roles like Yor Forger in the Filipino dub of Spy × Family.
Pauleen Luna is more than just a familiar face on TV—she’s a self-made star with a compelling story of resilience, talent, and reinvention. Her journey from pageant child to media personality is nothing short of inspiring.
