Maria Vivoree Niña Matutes Esclito (English: /ˈvvr/ VAI-vəu-ree; Tagalog: [ˌvaɪ̯voˈɾi ɛsˈklɪtɔ]; born August 3, 2000) is a Filipino singer, actress, television personality, model, and content creator. She first rose to prominence as one of the teen contestants on the reality show Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7. Over the years, Esclito has achieved further recognition for work in film, music, and television, most notably as a main cast member of the teen romantic comedy series He's Into Her. She is also known for her online presence and modeling work for brands such as Bench, as well as fashion publications in the Philippines.

Early life and education

[edit]

Esclito was born Maria Vivoree Niña Matutes Esclito on August 3, 2000, in Loon, Bohol. She is the eldest of three siblings. Her mother, Tetchie Esclito, is an elementary school teacher. Her father, Jun Esclito is a seafarer from Davao Oriental. Esclito briefly lived in Davao as a child, before moving back to Bohol with her family.[1] She had a premature birth. When Esclito was newly born, a doctor told her mother that she was unlikely to survive. Her name, Vivoree, comes from the English word survivor.[1][2]

Esclito completed her elementary school education at the Holy Name University, where her mother also teaches. She pursued her secondary education at the Tagbilaran City Science High School. Esclito once competed in a beauty pageant in high school, but according to her, the experience was so "traumatic" it made her never want to join another one.[3] In 2016, she joined the ABS-CBN reality competition show Pinoy Big Brother. Her stint on the show interrupted her education.[1] In May 2020, Esclito graduated from high school under a homeschool program by the Catholic Filipino Academy. She received a character award for generosity and an academic award for Philippine politics and governance.[4]

Career

[edit]

2016–2017: Beginnings

[edit]

On August 3, 2016, the Philippine talk show Tonight with Boy Abunda introduced Esclito as the "Go-Getter Girl ng (of) Bohol", a new teen "housemate" (contestant) on Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7, the seventh season of Pinoy Big Brother. She was celebrating her 16th birthday at the time. Esclito admitted to the host, Boy Abunda, that she experienced bullying due to her hairiness. She was the third teen housemate to be introduced to the public, after the German-Filipino Edward Barber and Yong Muhajil from Zamboanga.[5] Esclito was eliminated from Lucky 7 on Day 101 of the season, shortly following the elimination of fellow teen housemate, the Italian-Filipino Marco Gallo.[6] In a 2023 interview, Esclito revealed that she intentionally cried during her audition for Lucky 7, believing that it would increase her chances of joining the reality show.[3]

Fresh from her stint on Lucky 7, Esclito enrolled in acting workshops[7] and released her first single, "Kaya Pa" (lit.'Still Capable') on iTunes in November 2016.[6] Her father did not approve of her pursuit of showbiz, urging her to return to Bohol and focus on her education. He gave Esclito an ultimatum, saying that if she failed to secure a project offer a month after her elimination from Lucky 7, she would need to come home. Esclito was offered a project before the deadline, so her pursuit of showbiz continued.[7] In 2017, Esclito appeared on three ABS-CBN programs: episodes of the anthology drama programs Maalaala Mo Kaya (lit.'Would You Remember') and Ipaglaban Mo! (lit.'Fight For It!') and the weekly variety show ASAP. The year marked a slow start for Esclito's career as an actress and performer.[1]

Esclito in 2017

2018-2022: Rising popularity

[edit]

In 2018, Esclito auditioned for the romance drama series Araw Gabi (lit.'Day Night') and met the actor Charles Kieron for the first time. On May 6, an advertising specialist for ABS-CBN posted on Twitter that Esclito and Kieron were filming for a new episode of Ipaglaban Mo!. Many fans assumed that the two would be paired up in the episode. In reality, Kieron's character was courting the sister of Esclito's character. Nonetheless, the idea of Kieron and Esclito becoming a love team gained popularity.[8][9]

Esclito portrayed the recurring character Charie Tamayo in the action drama series Asintado (lit.'Sharpshooter'), her first afternoon teleserye, and AJ Punzalan in Since I Found You, her first primetime drama series.[1] She landed her first lead role in the urban fantasy miniseries Wansapanataym Presents: ManiKEN ni Monica[a]. The miniseries starred Esclito as Monica, an insecure young woman hoping to win the affections of her crush, Yoshi. She meets Ken, portrayed by Jerome Ponce, a fashion model cursed by a witch to become a mannequin due to his vanity. Monica strikes up an unlikely friendship with Ken, who needs unconditional love to become human again. ManiKEN aired from September 30 to November 4.[10][11][12] Kieron played Esclito's love interest in all three series, and their love team, known by the portmanteau name "KierVi", was officially established by ABS-CBN.[9] Esclito graced the cover of Village Pipol's September 2018 issue, alongside Awra Briguela. In the cover story, writer Lara Toldanes described Esclito as a "remarkable" Gen Z rising star with "charismatic beauty" and an "exceptional gift of angelic voice".[13]

In January 2019, Esclito and Kieron released a digital album titled CK & Vivoree. Their album launch at the SM North EDSA Sky Dome was sold out.[8] Esclito played Mildred on the highly successful gothic horror series The Killer Bride, which aired from October 2019 to January 2020. Esclito and Kieron portrayed each other's love interest once again.[14] They attended the ABS-CBN Ball together in 2018 and 2019.[15][16] Esclito's beaded red gown at the 2019 ABS-CBN Ball caused controversy. The gown, which was designed by Dominique Dy, was meant to evoke "modern Filipiniana". However, on the day before the ball, the gown's heavy beads reportedly damaged its fabric and the designer was forced to redo the top part from scratch. As a result of the mishap, the gown was unfinished when Esclito attended the ball. Some publications listed Esclito's unfinished gown as one of the "worst" outfits that night.[16][17]

In March 2019, Esclito appeared in the music video for the Regine Velasquez song "I Am Beautiful", along with other stars such as Nadine Lustre. The song promoted messages of self-love and women's empowerment.[18] On November 9, Esclito was announced as a cast member on He's Into Her, a teen romantic comedy series based on the Wattpad novel by Maxinejiji.[19] On November 15, Esclito was on the cover of the fashion and art magazine Blnc, where she modeled for photographer Stephen Capuchino, with art direction by Jobo Nacpil. The magazine described Esclito as "a luminous star[...] now synonymous with grace and talent", noting that her "morena[b] beauty" transcended the country's conventional beauty standards.[20][21]

In 2020, Esclito was among the roster of pioneer stars signed under Rise Artists Studio, a training and management subsidiary of ABS-CBN Films, in collaboration with Star Magic. The contract signing was held on February 6, 2020.[22]

Esclito then appeared on Maalaala Mo Kaya episode "Ilog" in which she played the younger counterpart of Elvira (Vina Morales). This appearance yet again created a buzz among netizens as she reunited with former onscreen partner JC Alcantara, and has earned praises for Vivoree's improved acting alongside veteran Marissa Delgado.

On June 14, 2020, Black Sheep Productions, a division of ABS-CBN Films, previewed a teaser about their launching their first boys' love series at the height of the popularity of 2gether: The Series, a Thai boys' love series.[23] Vivoree was announced to be a part of the cast and was later revealed to be playing the role Kookai Yambao, a friend of Mico Ramos played by JC Alcantara, she harbors unrequited feelings for the latter.

Adapting to the new normal work modality, Rise Artists Studio launched its online format talk show on June 22, 2020, wherein Rise Artists interview different personalities via Zoom format. It was aired on Rise Artists Studio's Official YouTube channel and then aired on Kapamilya Channel and Kapamilya Online Live under Yes Weekend! block from May 30, 2021, to January 30, 2022.

In 2022, Esclito reprised her role as Ysay in the final season of He's Into Her.[24] She also starred in the pilot episode of the anthology series Love Bites, as well as the teen drama miniseries Tara, G!, which premiered in September and October respectively.[25][26] From December 2022 to 2023, Esclito played the young scientist Penelope in The Iron Heart. She filmed some of her scenes in Cebu and said that she felt at home during filming because of its proximity to her home province, Bohol.[27][28]

2023-present

[edit]

Esclito walked the runway for the first time at Bench Fashion Week (BFW) 2023. Acer Batislaong of Nylon Manila reported that Esclito's catwalk debut "made the most impact" at the event, and that it became a trending topic online.[29] She walked the BFW runway in 2024 as well.[30] In 2023 and 2024, Esclito competed in the Star Magic All-Star Games, leading the volleyball squad Team Lady Spikers alongside Loisa Andalio. The sports event for Star Magic talents is held annually at the Araneta Coliseum and is digitally broadcast via video on demand (VOD).[31][32] In 2024, Esclito was recognized as one of the volleyball game's Mythical Six, referring to the six best volleyball players of the event.[33]

Esclito was a regular cast member on the teleserye Can't Buy Me Love from 2023 to 2024. In 2023, she was cast as one of the actresses for Eds, the protagonist of Tabing Ilog the Musical.[c] The play is a loose adaptation of the teen drama Tabing Ilog, which aired from 1999 to 2003. It modernizes the story to suit the Gen Z cast and characters.[34] In August 2024, Esclito appeared in the Cebuano-language talk show Kuan on One and released her first solo EP, titled "movie made for me", along with a single of the same name. She reprised her role as Eds in Tabing Ilog the Musical from November to December of the same year.[35]

Philanthropy

[edit]

Esclito was reportedly one of the first celebrities in the Philippines to start a donation drive for victims of Typhoon Rai (locally known as Typhoon Odette), which struck several provinces in the Philippines in 2021. At the media conference for the series Click, Like, Share, Esclito explained that the cause was close to her heart, because her home province, Bohol, was among the areas affected. She was aware that the Boholanos' houses and properties were damaged, and that food and water were scarce for them, due to her family members in Bohol suffering from the same predicament after the calamity.[36] In February 2022, she also participated in By Request 2, a 10-day online charity concert that raised funds for survivors of Rai.[37]

Personal life

[edit]

Mental health and relationships

[edit]

In November 2018, Esclito first publicly opened up about suffering from depression. She stated that she initially refused to tell other people about her depression, but eventually sought support for her mental health.[2] In October 2022, she discussed her mental health again. She shared her fears about her "wounded" inner child, stemming from her troubled childhood.[38]

Esclito has said that she has had romantic relationships with unspecified men. She said, "Every time I really get my heart broken, I focus on myself more."[39] She had a non-showbiz boyfriend sometime before July 2023. She described the relationship as mentally and emotionally draining.[40]

Political views

[edit]

In June 2020, Esclito expressed support for the Black Lives Matter movement. On Instagram, she wrote, "This is not to say that other races’ lives do not matter if black lives matter; this is to say that since our black brothers and sisters are being oppressed (not just today, but for centuries now), It is only right to stand with them against this discrimination, police brutality, and injustice TODAY AND ALWAYS."[41]

In a since-deleted post, Esclito uploaded a pink-filtered photo when Leni Robredo announced that she would run for President in the 2022 Philippine presidential election. This was widely understood to signal support for Robredo, who later lost to Bongbong Marcos.[42]
