Netizens would even quote Rowena’s punch lines. For Matet, her role as Nicole’s best friend was her best role throughout her acting career.
“In every acting project, you have to pretend as if you are a different person. But Rowena was just like me so I really enjoyed it,” she explains in “Tapatan Ni Tunying” airing this Thursday (June 19).
Because of her string of best friend roles in television and the movies, including her portrayal as Zoila in “A Very Special Love,” “You Changed My Life,” and “It Takes a Man and a Woman,” Matet has recently been tagged as the “Best Friend ng Bayan.”
Matet, however, confesses that despite her success with this niche role, she cannot relate it to her personal life.
“Ironically, they call me the “Best friend ng Bayan,” but I grew up with only a few friends,” she admits.
Meanwhile, in a separate interview, Kris Aquino’s perennial sidekick in the morning talk show “KrisTV” Darla Sauler shares how the TV host saved his life after he was diagnosed with leukemia in 2011.
“Kris has a huge part in my life now,” Darla shares.
