Career
GMA
De Lana joined the reality talent competition Popstar Kids, finishing as a grand finalist on its 2nd season. De Lana would later appear on several shows, including SOP, where she performed regularly as a member of Sugarpop, a group consisting of prominent Popstar Kids contestants until it disbanded in 2009.
A few years later, she joined Eat Bulaga!'s Ikaw at Echo: Ka-Voice ni Idol, an impression contest for singers. De Lana placed as a grand finalist. She impersonated singer and actress Jennifer Hudson.
Rise Artists Studio
A few weeks after revealing De Lana would be joining the cast of Four Sisters Before the Wedding, a prequel to the 2013 movie Four Sisters and a Wedding, Rise Artists Studio, an artist management division of Star Magic, announced that it was welcoming De Lana as a new member. On a special edition of 'We Rise Together', on December 2, 2020, De Lana was welcomed by other members of Rise.[5]
In a press conference, De Lana was asked about how she was discovered by Rise. She replied,
I was discovered by Rise through Ma'am Charo, she was the one who discovered me. She saw one of my videos where I sang 'We've Only Just Begun', where I was in a green dress. I wasn't expecting to be added [as a member of Rise]. Then, that was it. After that, Ma'am JD called, Sir Mico called, so that was how it started[6]
When she was asked about using a screen name in place of her real name, she said,
Yes, the management [decided on the name change]. But, the agreement was with both sides, so we decided to change the name.
Since joining Rise, De Lana has taken part in some episodes of WRT as a co-host.
