Career

Rodriguez originally started her career as a preschool teacher, later appearing in a recurring role in Okay Ka, Fairy Ko! alongside Vic Sotto and Aiza Seguerra. [1] She has been starring as one of Eat Bulaga!'s hosts since 1991 and has since then become a regular host.

Rodriguez joined Eat Bulaga! at the age of 25, replacing Helen Vela, who left the show due to medical and health reasons that would result to her death a year later. However, in 2021, she left Eat Bulaga! after 31 years as a co-host–counting her hiatus in hosting the program due to the COVID-19 pandemic–due to her having to take care of her son who has dyslexia, and then, her relocation to the United States to be with her daughter.

As of 2021, she is now living in Los Angeles, California and currently works at the Philippine Consulate Office. [3]
