Kenobi Walters proved himself luckier than mom, actress Giselle Toengi, when he became one of the few babies picked to appear in an episode of the new season of hit American TV series “Desperate Housewives.”

Toengi left a thriving acting career in the Philippines a few years ago to try her luck in Hollywood.

Although she managed to grab a couple of roles—notably one for “Saved by the Bell: The Musical” and another for “Days When Cocaine Was King”—big breaks have eluded her.

Nevertheless, the actress has not stopped auditoning for various roles using her SAG (Screen Actor’s Guild) card. She said she will continue “living the dream.”

As of this writing, Toengi is in Manila with Kenobi whose little achievement she is proud of. Toengi has posted the videos of Kenobi’s appearance in “Houswife” on YouTube, and she has emailed the local media about it.

Toengi is married to bartender Tim Walters, with whom she has two kids, Kenobi and three-month-old Sakura.
