Noted for her distinct brand in hosting & strong opinions about life,[1] she has established herself as a dependable figure in morning and noontime variety shows since 1986, which marked the beginning of her career.

    Perez has been a prominent "figure in the entertainment industry for over thirty years"[2] and is considered as "one of the busiest and most visible television artists in show business."[3] She has won countless accolades including the "Best Female Morning Show Host" at the 6th Paragala Central Luzon Media Awards,[4] “Best Morning Show Host” for Umagang Kay Ganda at the 31st PMPC Star Awards for Television,[5] and “Best Female TV Host” at the 34th PMPC Star Awards for Television.[6] She would then host more ABS-CBN noontime shows, such as Sa Linggo NAPO Sila[7] and its weekday equivalent 'Sang Linggo NAPO Sila.[8] She likewise became part of the hit noontime show Magandang Tanghali Bayan[9][10] and the top-rating tabloid talk show Face 2 Face,[11] including stints on The Singing Bee[12] and the chat show M.R.S. As an actress, she has played roles in several television series and dramas occasionally such as Sa Dulo Ng Walang Hanggan, Gulong Ng Palad, and Only You, as well as the venerable sitcom Palibhasa Lalake.[13]

    Since 2016, Perez has been one of the main hosts of It's Showtime, which marked her comeback as a noontime show host.[14]

    Career

(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.
