Caitlyn's very 1st TVC Gardenia Waffles.

Finally! Caitlyn has broken d ice of getting herself a BIG TV commercial! A little history here, I used to be in d 'Advertising' line for years & I am very familiar with d limelight. But, d people I used to worked with .. have moved on. So, I had to start from scratch ..

I started sending my kids for casting when Caitlyn was just 2 years old & lil Cruz was just 1. But both did not land a job. Well, actually .. Cruz did! It was not a TVC / Casting .. I joined a Johnson Baby search & he won d runner up category. I still have d family photo sitting in my living room - We were all dressed in White, was published in Mommy & Baby Magazine back then. I was amazed with d prizes too! We received RM800 worth of Johnson Baby products! Yeah! I guess that was d very 1st & last advertorial for lil Cruz. He dislikes Casting sessions now.

Caitlyn has been very lucky as in - Being shortlisted for several TVC's but her luck never seemed to go further. Oh well, we tried...we waited & waited ..

WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Gardenia Waffles TVC!!! Woo hoooo!!!

She had to be at d shooting site in Seksyen 16 as early as 6.30am! I kinda freaked out when I received d calling time. Thank god she woke up on time & she did not make any fuss at all. She had to get her make up & hair done & started filming at 8.30am. Well, d very 1st scene was pretty tough for her (bear in mind) it is her very 1st experience in acting. Took her 3 hours just to get d 1st scene right! I started scratching my head, feeling very nervous for her if she is going to show her temper or call it quits! But thank god...thank god she made it through! Wanna hear something hilarious? She had 50 pieces of Gardenia Waffles! Ha ha! Well, not d entire Waffle, just a bite of every Waffle. Thank god she loves Waffles! It was an amazing experience for Caitlyn & there was at least 40 crew members around & she was extremely natural in front of d camera!

Gardenia Waffles is out on every chanel except RTM.

Here's d TVC - Check it out! My Baby!! D very 1st scene!!
