Early life
Nibley was born in Malate, Manila to Aladino and Melinda Nibley and lived most of her life in Quezon City. Her father was such a big fan of Vilma Santos that he named his daughter after the star mayor's son Luis Manzano (also known as Lucky Manzano); she was baptized Swirtty Mae Nibley. Her father must have been totally star-struck as he trained his daughter to sing, starting at age 3.
During her childhood, Nibley performed at Manila Hotel, Manila Pavilion and Holiday Inn Manila. While at Trinity High School, she was a Rotary Club member. Nibley graduated from Trinity High School in 2003. She is of mixed cultural background, half Filipino, quarter Japanese, Irish, Spanish, and American descent.
The 6th Grandfinalist of the Born Diva TV series, she said she could sing as many as 20 songs every day when she reached her teens. Little wonder Nibley, a Mass Communication major in Trinity University of Asia, was a runaway winner when she sang the lungbusting "Halik" by Aegis.
