At a very young age, her parents noticed her interest in music, encouraging her to join in various singing contests in Cebu. It was not long before Bobit Avila saw her perform, and convinced her and her parents to go to Manila to try their luck.

In Manila, Bobit presented Manilyn, then only 10, to Mother Lily, owner and producer of Regal Films. After the meeting she was offered a contract. For her first film, she worked with film actress Gloria Romero in " To Mama With Love ". That same year, her first album Apple Thoughts was released, followed by a Christmas album entitled Manilyn Christmas Due to her popularity, she was given the title Star of the New Decade given by the press and the fans. Her achievements as a young star are still unbeaten. All of her albums are certified gold and platinum awards. She was the youngest recording artist to have a major concert at the Bigdome in 1990. In that same year she also had a major concert at the Ultra Stadium. She had movies and television shows left and right. She was the last actress to have a musical variety show entitled Manilyn Live!.

She was a cast of the hit television show That's Entertainment and had her own show named after her. Manilyn's singing voice is often compared to Sheryn Regis, a fellow Cebuana singer in the Philippines, who revived Manilyn's popular song, "Sayang Na Sayang".

She is married to former actor Aljon Jimenez. On September 2, 2008, Reynes suffered a miscarriage at the Manila Sanitarium Hospital, while on her 4th month of pregnancy. She and Aljon have 2 sons.¹
