Maja Salvador (born Maja Ross Andres Salvador on October 5, 1988 in Aparri, Cagayan, Philippines) is a Filipina actress and commercial model. She is currently under contract with ABS-CBN and a member of Star Magic. She is known as the "Dance Princess" in the Philippines, and works as a covergirl and endorser.
She came from a family of actors and actresses. Her father Ross Rival (1945-2007) (Rosauro Salvador in private life), cousin Jobelle Salvador, late grandfather Lou Salvador, and late granduncle Leroy Salvador were erstwhile actors. Her uncle, Phillip Salvador, is a one of the most famous actors in Philippine cinema.
Unlike other celebrities who were discovered on talent search and through commercials and endorsements in television, Maja was accidentally discovered by the executives of ABS-CBN Channel 2, on a nationwide television show where she was reuniting with her long-lost father, Ross Rival. The moment of reconciliation between the father and daughter was actually then the primary step for the lady to go on or pursue the showbiz world.
Not all people know that Maja, was at first a ramp model at her young age together with a found friend Farah Ramos, who is the daughter of Chit Ramos, a movie-columnist and talent manager. Maja then confided with Chit regarding her longingness to see her father she didn’t see for years. Little did she know that Chit immediately worked out for the reconciliation of Maja and her dad. With the help of her extended family, she was brought up to the house of one of his uncles, Ramon Salvador where she finally met her father.
The said reunion was actually aired on The Buzz. That time, one of the heads of ABS-CBN was watching her closely. Charo Santos- Concio asked her staff to look for Maja after watching that touching moment which actually made a mark on her.
