Actor Marky Cielo found dead
Marky Cielo was found dead at his home in Antipolo yesterday morning. According to initial reports, the cause of his death was bangungot. He was 20.
Marky's death reminds one of the untimely demise of Rico Yan six years ago in Dos Palmas Resort, Palawan. Marky's body was brought to St. Peter's Antipolo.
A STAR source says that Marky confided to his actor-friend that he had been receiving death threats prior his death. In another report, it was his mother, Mildred who found him dead in their home.
The family is waiting for the results of an investigation regarding Marky's death before issuing an official statement.
Marky entered showbusiness through the artista search StarStruck in 2005 and became the Ultimate Sole Survivor in 2006. He won the nod of the judges and the public through his dancing talent and charisma. He was the first half-Igorot to win the reality-talent search.
Televiewers have seen him on GMA shows like Fantastikids, Encantadia: Pag-ibig Hanggang Wakas, Bakekang, Asian Treasures, Zaido, Sinenovela: Kaputol ng Isang Awit, Codename: Asero and LaLola. - Jerry Donato and Bot Glorioso (Philstar News Service
