Angel Locsin was born Angelica Colmenares on April 23, 1985 in Bulacan, Philippines. She is a television and film actress, commercial model, film producer and fashion designer in the Philippines. She grew up in Bulacan, Philippines. Her parents separated when she was fourteen, and she has since lived with her father (Angelo Colmenares).

Angel rose to prominence after being cast as one of the lead stars in the fantasy-themed television series Mulawin in 2004. Soon after, she starred as the superheroine Darna in the TV adaptation of the Mars Ravelo comics. When her contract expired last March 2007, Angel did not renew her contract to her mother studio, GMA Network, and signed an exclusive contract in ABS-CBN despite her booming career on the first. Locsin recently debuted in her first teleserye in ABS-CBN, Lobo (TV series). The teleserye eventually ended last July 11, 2008.

Locsin's career was discovered by a talent scout while she cuts classes with a friend. She was shopping at SM City North EDSA in Quezon City. She then auditioned for several commercials. She was supposed to be a part of the Batch 9 under ABS-CBN's Star Circle Batch (now Star Magic), but she failed to sign a contract because her father, Angelo Colmenares, didn't agree. After a year, she became a contract star of GMA Artist Center.

Locsin first appeared on Click, a 1999 teen-oriented program under GMA Network. Locsin also included in the cast of Ang Iibigin Ay Ikaw Pa Rin which was starred by Christopher De Leon, Richard Gomez and Alice Dixson on the lead roles. In 2004, she also starred in All Together Now.
