She has received a selection of accolades for her work such as five PMPC Star Awards for Television including two wins for "Best Female TV Host" and three Alta Media Icon Awards.
Career
[edit]Perez's earliest big-time gig was co-hosting the noontime variety programs Family Kuarta o Kahon (1986–1990), Eat Bulaga! (1989–1995), Sa Linggo nAPO Sila (1990–1995), 'Sang Linggo nAPO Sila (1995–1998), and Magandang Tanghali Bayan from 1998 until she left in 2002. After two years of absence from variety shows, she was chosen to be one of the hosts for the morning talk-variety show M.R.S.
As an actress, Perez portrayed diverse roles in both television and film. Notable performances include her role as Anne in 'Anak ni Baby Ama' and appearances in 'Flavor of the Month' alongside Joey Marquez and Alma Moreno. These films showcased her comedic talent, earning her recognition. Perez received critical acclaim for her portrayal of Helen in the Robin Padilla-starrer 'Sa Diyos Lang Ako Susuko.' She also featured in 'Petrang Kabayo 2: Ang Ganda-Ganda Ko,' 'Palibhasa Lalake,' 'Ipagpatawad Mo,' 'Tigasin,' and 'Pera o Bayong (Not da TV).'
On the television front, Perez took on roles in dramas such as 'Sa Dulo ng Walang Hanggan' (Mirriam), 'Habang Kapiling Ka' (Divine Ogata), and 'Ikaw sa Puso Ko' in 2004. She also appeared in two episodes of 'Komiks ' in 2006: 'Alpha Omega Girl' and 'Agua Bendita.' Additionally, she starred in the horror flick 'Matakot Ka sa Karma,' directed by Jose Javier Reyes, playing the role of Myrna in the segment entitled 'Kama.'
Her television appearances extended to 'Love Spell' in 2007, where she featured in the episode 'Shoes ko po, Shoes ko Day!' and ' I've Fallen for You,' portraying the character Ninang Beth. In 2019, Perez became the celebrity endorser for Belo Medical Clinic.[4]
Personal life
[edit]Perez and musician Brix Ferraris share a son named Adi. She is also a cousin of veteran actress Lorna Tolentino. Despite filing for annulment from Ferraris, her request was denied by the Supreme Court.[5] Subsequently, Perez entered into a relationship with radio host Carlo Castillo, with whom she has a son born in 2008.[6] In 2012, she confirmed her pregnancy, expecting her second child with Castillo, and announced a one-year leave from Face to Face.[citation needed] Perez and Castillo married in 2014.[7]
