She added that Oineza watched their vlogs to understand the role. Finally, Roanne noted that she found Oineza’s actions respectful, thanking the actress for being an ally.
Nung shoot day, she personally asked the prod na maka video chat kami para mas makilala kami. She watched our vlogs para mas maintindihan yung role.
Alam ko bare minimum ito pero nasa tao talaga ang pagrespeto.
Thank you for being our ally, @itsJaneOineza! 🏳️🌈#MMKwentongRoTin https://t.co/w6Gcg9AoTd pic.twitter.com/g5ABqGjRJt

Earlier, Roanne and Tina called out actress Nathalie Hart for her comments about portraying a lesbian on MMK.
It led to their call for better representation of LGBTQIA+ characters on TV alongside creator and writer Juan Miguel Severo.
Oineza and Hart portray the YouTube Vloggers and real-life lesbian couple Carreon and Boada, otherwise known as RoTin, in the upcoming MMK episode.
