In her Instagram account, singer and actress Zsa Zsa Padilla posted photos of her and co-actors Liza and Lee O’Brian during their shoot for the MMK episode. One post was dedicated to Liza.
“My first time to act with this pretty lady! I must admit, it was hard focusing on my lines while looking at her beautiful face. Who knew such beauty could be distracting? But she's such an amazing actor and pretty soon, I felt like I was talking to my very own daughter. Please watch out for MMK featuring the life story of Pia Wurtzbach,” Zsa Zsa wrote.
Actors Lee and Fifth Solomon Pagotan also shared a photo during their shoot.
News about Liza’s role came after a Facebook fan page posted a photo of the actress similar to Pia’s shoot. The same post said the MMK episode on Pia will be shown in June.
