[2] [3]  She was adopted by her paternal grandaunt, Sylvia "Bob" Quinto, in  Sampaloc, Manila . [4] [5]  Initially resentful during her early childhood, Quinto later shared a close bond with her adoptive mother and credited her as instrumental to her achievements. [6] [4]  Quinto began singing at age six. She listened to songs on the radio and would imitate the singing styles of female artists. At age nine, she participated in her first amateur singing competition.

6. The next few years, Quinto continued to compete in talent shows on television. At age twelve, she auditioned for the first season of the reality singing contest  Star for a Night  (2003). [1]  She advanced as one of the eleven grand finalists, and performed a cover of  Wency Cornejo 's " Habang May Buhay " ("As Long as There is Life") during the season finals. [8]  Quinto later recalled that her participation in the show was motivated by a desire to meet the program's host,  Regine Velasquez , whom she considers as a musical influence. [9]  In 2005, she appeared in  Magandang Tanghali Bayan 's Teen Pop Star search and became that season's winner. [1]  During this period, Quinto suffered from depression and thought of self-harm. [10]  She struggled academically in high school and was negatively influenced by her peers, eventually dropping out of school. Her family was beset by personal disagreements, which led her to take a break from singing to focus on her mental health.

7. 2010–2012:  Star Power  and acting debut After a five-year break from music, Quinto pursued singing and was part of a talent show in the variety program  Diz Iz It!  in 2010. [10]  A renewed interest led her to audition for the reality television series  Star Power: Sharon's Search for the Next Female Pop Superstar  that same year. [11]  During her appearances on the series, she was a  senior  in  high school . [12]  Quinto won the competition on February 20, 2011, at the  Ynares Center  in  Antipolo . [13]  Looking back on  Star Power  in a 2019 interview, Quinto remarked that she considered the show her last effort towards working on her music career. Worried that she would remain obscure at the time, she contemplated pursuing a career in the  culinary arts .

8. After winning  Star Power , Quinto was signed to a  record deal  with  Star Music . [13]  She began working on her eponymous debut album with songwriter and producer  Jonathan Manalo , to whom she felt deeply indebted. [15]  Manalo wrote two of the album's songs, [16]  including the debut single " Patuloy . Ang Pangarap " ("The Dream Continues"), which Quinto performed during the season finale of  Star Power .

The film tells the story of two strangers, whose lives are transformed despite their contrasting personalities. [24]   Nestor Torre Jr.  of the  Philippine Daily Inquirer  found her to be "expressive", but felt that her performance "fell short of the standards". [25]  Media critic Mark Ching from the  Philippine Entertainment Portal  wrote that the film was well-written and well-acted, and noted that Quinto's "personal charm and naivete" aided in her genuine portrayal. [24]  In her television debut, an episode of the anthology series  Maalaala Mo Kaya , she was cast as an  indigenous  woman and the love interest of  Jason Abalos 's character.
