Kapamilya actress Ella Cruz has officially joined the roster of talents of Viva Artists Agency (VAA).

Ella was accompanied by her mom Jessica Cruz, together with VAA’s president and COO Veronique del Rosario-Corpus, in a contract signing held at Viva Entertainment headquarters, this Wednesday, October 7.

The 19-year-old actress has been with Star Magic for two years, before she decided to switch to VAA.

“Gusto lang namin ni Mama na medyo mag-explore sa mga bagay-bagay.

“Kasi marami kaming kinausap muna bago mag-decide kasi siyempre big decision ito, e.

“So, kailangan maraming opinion hindi lang sa aming family, from other people din, especially sa mga tao na mas alam yung ginagalawan namin,” said Ella.

In an exclusive interview, Ella clarified that she has informed Star Magic about her decision to transfer to VAA. Although her three-year network contract with ABS-CBN has ended last March, Ella maintained that she still has an acting project lined up with the Kapamilya network this year.
