Peruvian actress Alessandra Fuller has revealed that she completed two university degrees with top grades while working long hours on television productions. The 31-year-old actor and influencer shared her academic records to help dismantle stereotypes that influencers live a relaxed life.
Fuller earned degrees in Communication Sciences and International Business while keeping her studies private. She shared her grades showing that she ranked in the top fifth of her class during every academic term, an honor awarded to students with the highest marks in their group.
Speaking to Peruvian news outlet Trome, Fuller explained that she has always been a fan of learning and emphasized that actors train, study, and prepare themselves. She added that her mother insisted most strongly on her pursuing a university education, noting that her parents always supported her academic goals.
University degrees and academic achievements
Fuller began her acting career during adolescence when she starred in the popular América Televisión series Ven, baila, quinceañera alongside actresses Mayra Goñi and Flavia Laos. Despite filming sessions that lasted more than 10 hours a day, she completed both professional degrees while managing her work schedule.
The actress is currently preparing for the premiere of the Peruvian film Mañana me caso, in which she plays the lead role. The movie is scheduled to open in cinemas on August 13.
Challenges of early fame and public exposure
Fuller also addressed the difficulties of achieving fame at a young age, stating that popularity carries a heavy burden and that not everything that glitters is gold. She explained that intense public exposure made maintaining a private life increasingly difficult as her career grew.
The public exposure includes people gathering outside her house to record her actions. She said that because her address became public knowledge, people frequently record her from outside the property, making it difficult for her to take legal action even when personal moments like her mother doing her makeup inside are later broadcast publicly.
