Maria Chriselle Elisse Joson Diuco (born January 6, 1996), commonly known as Elisse Joson, is a Filipina actress and endorser.

Personal life

Elisse Joson was born in Manila, Philippines. She is the only daughter of Christine Joson-Diuco, a doctor and a single mother. She attended Bataan Montessori School during her elementary and high school years.[1]

At a young age of 7, Joson attended various acting and singing workshops where she was deemed to be shy. Joson's family later migrated from the Philippines to the United States and lived there for a few years. She attended Inderkum High School in Sacramento, California. While living there, she experienced bullying for not being able to speak English fluently. This experience, however, allowed her to gain confidence in herself. Upon moving back to Manila, she used this newly found confidence and fully pursued her passion for acting. At 16, she then became one of ABS-CBN network's pool of Star Magic artists.

She was involved in a past relationship with Kapamilya actor Jerome Ponce. Their break-up raised controversies upon her entrance to the Pinoy Big Brother House.[2]

She is currently an AB Fashion Design and Merchandising student at De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde. Her interest for fashion is influenced by the works of Alexander McQueen.[3]
