MANILA - Actress Sheryl Cruz on Tuesday registered her candidacy for councilor of Manila -- her first foray into politics.

Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada, Cruz's godfather, accompanied her in filing her certificate of candidacy for the second district.

Cruz told reporters that she has always considered entering public service despite rejecting previous offers to run for office.

"It's just that siguro ngayon mas aware na ako na ito iyung mga pangangailangan ng mga taong nakikita ko," she told reporters.

"Gusto kong magsimula sa distrito ko, kung saan nanggaling ang pamilya Cruz."

(It's just that I'm perhaps more aware now of the needs of the public. I want to start in my district, where the Cruz family is from.)

"She's pro-poor," Estrada said of the actress.
