STARSTRUCK alumna Jennylyn Mercado embarks a new chapter in her showbiz career, as she hosts upcoming show "Protege: The Battle for the Big Break."
This reality-talent show will be the actress’ first serious hosting stint on television and Jennylyn revealed she's a bit nervous of what will happen in the next couple of weeks.

"Kailangan kong pag-aralan ‘yung klaseng attack ‘yung gagawin ko while on stage hosting. Excited ako kasi bago and isa siyang reality show."
Jennylyn shared she constantly asks "Showbiz Central" and "Eat Bulaga" host Pia Guanio what to do and not to do when hosting this kind of project.
The single mother is learning lots of things in hosting and open to new challenges and opportunities in this line of work.
"I think this is a new world for me. First time kong sasabak sa ganitong hosting job na talagang serious. Kaya nakakatuwa and at the same time siyempre kinakabahan din ako."
Like Jennylyn, her ex-boyfriend Dennis Trillo also moves forward and is currently doing a movie with Jake Cuenca, Lovi Poe and Carla Abellana under Regal Films entitled "My Neighbor's Wife."
According to Dennis, he's more focused now with work and will remain single for a while.
"Hindi naman ako naghahanap ngayon. Andami talaga diyan, pinipigilan ko lang ‘yung sarili ko dahil nga nagpapakabait muna ako at ayusin muna ‘yung trabaho ko. Para iwas muna sa kontrobersiya at tahimik lang."
Dennis also revealed he's ready to meet Jennylyn again but he's not too sure if they could work together this soon.
"Ready akong makita siya pero makatrabaho, eh, hindi ko pa alam. Marami pa din naman kasi akong ginagawa ngayon."
"Ako nakapag move-on na ako matagal na. Lahat ng nangyari ngayon, eh, kinalimutan ko na. Wala na ‘yun... wala na ‘yun. Hindi rin makakatulong kung magtatago ako ng sama ng loob or galit. Para makapagtrabaho ako ng maayos eh kailangang kong mawala yun." (Sunnex)
