# Eda Nolan

Eda Kristy Cabilan (born December 14, 1988), known professionally as Eda Nolan, is a Filipina actress, best known for her role as Junniper, the shy, 'promdi' girl, in ABS-CBN's sitcoms, Let's Go and Gokada Go. Nolan has been a member of Star Magic, ABS CBN's circle of homegrown talents, since 2006.

## Career

Eda first started as a contestant in ABS-CBN's reality-based talent search Star Circle Quest: Season 2 in 2004. She was part of the Top 25, but never made it to the finals. Eventually, Eda was asked to audition for Star Magic and still she didn't get picked. When she was about to leave ABS-CBN she met Mr. M who talked to her and asked her to come back after graduation.
After high school graduation, Eda went back to Manila to undergo training and workshop in acting, singing and dancing, which lasted for six months. After the training, Eda patiently waited for an offer. Getting bored and feeling it was not just her time yet, she decided to go back to Cebu. And just when she made up her mind to pursue her studies, she got a call asking her to audition for the sitcom Let's Go. This time, she got picked.

## Controversy
### Wowowee incident

On the May 12, 2007 episode of Wowowee, to promote ABS-CBN's new teen comedy "Gokada Go!", cast members from the show performed a dance number as part of the entertainment segment of the show. Nolan's tube top became loose, exposing one of her breasts. Although producers claimed that she had been wearing a skin-colored bra, Wowowee received a 3-day suspension from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board.

### Concealed pregnancy

In 2007, Eda disappeared from public view after she left the ABS-CBN sitcom, "That's my Doc!". She reappeared in February 2008 after revealing that she gave birth to a son, with her then-boyfriend, GMA-7 teen actor Gian Carlos.
