JANINE GUTIERREZ is the pretty host of Sunday All Stars and currently portraying Lynette Quintana in the afternoon drama series VILLA QUINTANA opposite ELMO MAGALONA.

The series is a remake of the 1990’s award-winning KEEMPEE – DONNA  soap on GMA that lasted for more than 14 months.

JANINE is the 24 year-old daughter of veteran actors Lot Lot De Leon and Ramon Christopher ‘Monching’ Gutierrez and here are Ten (10) things about the young actress that I found out during our casual lunch meet-up last week at Greens Vegetarian Restaurant in Quezon City.
