Aside from this, the actresses shared their experiences working with their co-stars which led award-winning actress Jaclyn Jose to drop a bomb about an actor whom she lectured for his disturbing working habit.
“Ako talaga, bilang laki ako kay Tita Chato [Charito Solis], di ba?
“Sa kanya ko natutunan yung, ‘You have to discipline the next generation. If not, walang mangyayari sa industriyang ito.’
“Meron na akong nasabihan na aktor ngayon na gano’n, e,” she shared with her peers.
According to the 56-year-old actress, the said actor was drunk when he went to their taping and threw up repeatedly.
She said: “Nagte-take na kami, in the middle of the take, sumuka. Sumusuka.
“Tapos, tapos… we have to stop. Ibig kong sabihin, tapos, kailangang… bigyan ng kape, punasan.”
According to the critically-acclaimed actress, she’s not the kind of person who lectures her co-actors, but the situation made her do what she did.
“Sabi ko, ‘Kaya walang nangyayari sa industriyang ito, dahil sa mga artistang kagaya mo!’”
“Ang sa akin… lalo tayong magtatagal dito, imbes na maaga tayong makauwi nang sabay-sabay, makasama natin ang pamilya natin…”
