Early life and education

Jhoanna Christine Burgos Robles was born on January 26, 2004 in Calamba, Laguna, Philippines.[2] She is the only child of her parents.[3] She served as a majorette in her school's marching band and competed in campus journalism competitions in high school as part of her initial plans to become a broadcast journalist.[1][4]

Career

2018–2020: Early career and Star Hunt Academy audition

Prior to joining Bini, Jhoanna took on acting roles in television series such as the ABS-CBN drama Kadenang Ginto (transl. Golden Chain) in 2018 and in the drama anthology Maalaala Mo Kaya (transl. Would You Remember?).[2] In 2018, Jhoanna auditioned for Star Hunt Academy (SHA) in Laguna.[5] On October 10, 2020, Jhoanna was one of the last eight members of the SHA Girl Trainees to graduate and was officially announced as a member of an idol group.[6] In November 2020, Jhoanna officially became a member of the Filipino girl group Bini.[7]

2021–present: Debut with BINI, acting ventures, and expanding music career

Jhoanna officially debuted as a member of Bini on June 11, 2021.[8] She is officially the group's leader, in addition to being one of its lead vocalists and rappers.[9] In 2023, she starred in the music video for "Maharani" (transl. Great Queen) by the Pinoy pop boy band Alamat. In the video, she and the members of Alamat portray classmates who are rehearsing for a school performance of the singkil traditional dance. As they practice, a spark grows between Jhoanna and the Alamat member Taneo. Rafael Bautista of Nylon Manila remarked that "it felt correct" for Jhoanna and Taneo to portray the lead couple, as they are both the official leaders of their respective groups.[10][11] She learned how to dance singkil for the video.[12]

Later that year, she was cast as Epifania "Eds/Panyang" delos Santos, the female lead of Tabing Ilog the Musical, a role she alternated with Vivoree Esclito and Sheena Belarmino. It is a musical theater adaptation of Tabing Ilog (transl. Riverside), a teen drama series that originally aired from 1999 to 2003. The musical updates the show's story and setting to suit its Gen Z cast and characters.[13][14] In 2024, she reprised the role, along with Esclito and Belarmino. The rerun lasted from November 8 to December 1. Jia Pizarro Bote of When in Manila lauded Jhoanna's stage performance, writing that she proved her versatility as Eds.[15][16] The musical is a joint production between the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) and ABS-CBN.[13]

In July, Jhoanna was cast in the music video of the single "Misteryoso" (transl. Mysterious) by the Baguio-based pop-rock band Cup of Joe, directed by SB19 member Justin.[17][18] She was also a featured vocalist on "Kalma Kahit Magulo" (transl. Calm Despite Turmoil), a song from the original soundtrack of the 2024 ABS-CBN drama series High Street, along with fellow Bini member Colet and Juan Karlos Labajo.[19]

Other ventures

Journalism

While in sixth grade, Jhoanna developed a passion for journalism when she was asked to read a newspaper in her school's library. She then participated through her high school years in the District Schools Press Conference (DSPC) and advanced to the Regional Schools Press Conference (RSPC) in Calabarzon—both of which are qualifiers leading to the National Schools Press Conference (NSPC).[20]

On April 20, 2023, Bini appeared on the morning radio program Sakto on TeleRadyo Serbisyo, where Jhoanna's interest in reporting was noted by hosts Amy Perez and Jeff Canoy. Due to Perez's absence, Jhoanna stood in as a temporary host on April 21, following an offer.[21]

On February 21, 2024, Jhoanna served as a guest presenter on ABS-CBN News' digital-exclusive news rundown TV Patrol Express.[22] On April 15, Jhoanna served as a guest entertainment anchor on ABS-CBN's flagship news program, TV Patrol.[20] She returned as a guest presenter on TV Patrol Express in October.[23]
