- Maine Mendoza shared that comedy is her forte.
- She is also thankful that Vic Sotto is still her father in the sitcom ‘Daddy’s Gurl’.
- Maine, however, explained that she is still willing to accept drama series.
Maine Mendoza shared that she’s more comfortable in doing a sitcom than a drama series during the media conference of ‘Daddy’s Gurl’.
She explained, “Mas gusto ko ito kaysa teleserye.
“Naranasan ko na rin pong gumawa ng drama, iyong ‘Destined To Be Yours’ at talaga pong nahihirapan ako sa mga iyakan.
“Dito po sa sitcom, less ang pressure, masaya lagi sa set. Lalo na po at mga mahuhusay na artista at komedyante ang mga kasama ko.”
The Kapuso Phenomenal Star also took the opportunity to thank her colleagues especially Vic Sotto and Jelson Bay who taught her how to properly speak with Batangueño accent.
“Nagpapasalamat po ako kay Bossing Vic (Sotto), dahil siya po ang nakaisip na bigyan naman ako ng sitcom.
“Nagpaturo po ako kung paano ang accent at si Kuya Jelson Bay as Gerry ay Batangueño po talaga kaya kino-korek niya ako sa pronunciation. Nakakatuwa po dahil kung minsan, nagagamit ko sa labas ang puntong Batangueño.”
Maine added that she’s fortunate to be working with Sotto again as her father. The familiarity between them helped her with her performance and found it much easier since Vic is already a second father to her real-life.
“Dahil very comfortable na ako kay Bossing, sa Eat Bulaga at pang-ilang movies na ang nagawa namin na mag-tatay kami, hindi rin po mahirap.
“Bale, ito pong movie namin for the Metro Manila Film Festival, ang ‘Jack Em Popoy: The Pulisincredibles’, pang-apat na movie na namin as tatay and daughter.”
She concluded that she will keep her doors open for drama series if she gets any offer.
Catch Maine Mendoza on ‘Daddy’s Gurl‘ every Saturday after ‘Pepito Manaloto’.
