- Rufa Mae Quinto now works with Ogie Alcasid in Home Sweetie Home.
- The had already worked together in Bubble Gang.
- Rufa revealed that she missed doing comedy bits with Ogie.
Rufa Mae Quinto reunited with Ogie Alcasid in the ABS-CBN Saturday sitcom Home Sweetie Home. They both also used to star in GMA Network’s Bubble Gang. Ruffa Mae revealed how elated she felt about working with Ogie again.
When Ogie transferred to ABS-CBN Corporation, he only used to have singing, judging and hosting projects.
In an interview with PUSH.com, Rufa added that she missed doing comedy bits with Ogie.
“Nakaka-miss. Last time ko siyang nakita, na naka-eksena. Tapos nong nagka-show siya dito puro singing-singing. Kung hindi singing, judging o hosting so parang nakaka-miss, alam mo ‘yun nakaka-miss pala talaga magpatawa.”
Since she had already worked with Ogie, it is easier to work with him and she has grown with Ogie on the other network.
Nong dumating si Ogie don ko nasabi sa sarili ko na iba pala din pagkamatagal na kayong nagkakasama sa proyekto. Parang ilang years, tapos barkada kayo, lumaki na kayo together, lahat lahat na, di ba? So ‘yun parang sabi ko so ibang klase ngayon lalo ‘yung comedy na maibibigay kasi parang ang tagal naming inantay ‘to.”
She only used to have regular guest appearances but Rufa also added that she didn’t expect her network transfer would happen.
“Kumbaga parang di ko alam kung ano ang nakaharap sa akin di ba? Hindi ko alam parang, ‘Sige, Lord. Bahala Kayo kung ano ‘yan.’ Nong unang pumasok ako dito talaga ng last year pa pero as regular guest, siyempre di ko alam kung anong mangyayari, kung tuloy, baka kasi siyempre di ko naman show di ba? ‘Yun pero at that time na sinabi nila na go-go ako sa Home Sweetie Home eh ano pang sagot ko sa go, eh di go, tapos ‘yun tuloy lang.”
Rufa’s husband Filipino-American Trevor Magallanes encouraged her to go back in show business.
“Siya ‘yung nagpabalik sa akin kasi naniniwala siya na this is my destiny.”
