Barbie and Mika, who have previously worked together in a movie project, are finally reunited in the original drama of the Kapuso Network.

Anticipation is high for their project and their respective fans couldn’t contain their excitement to watch their idols on the small screen. Watching them together is definitely a special treat since both are recognized for their excellent acting skills.

Barbie, known for her versatility in dramatic soaps, has also proven her flair for comedy. Since the announcement of her role, fans have started to tease Barbie with her four leading men: Ivan Dorschner, Addy Raj, Jak Roberto and Ken Chan. Netizens gushed over how perfect Barbie is the character of Billie.

Even Kapuso fans abroad have been expressing their interest towards the story of Billie and her love teams with the four guys.

Despite being a newcomer to GMA, Mika has already piqued the interest of netizens. They have even already started calling her “Mariko” since the announcement of her role.

Recently, when she posted a photo with her co-stars, it immediately received thousands of likes and fans were quick to reply with comments such as: “I love your show very much! I love seeing you and Barbie’s gorgeous faces,” and “Bagay sau ung mabait... inaabangan kita lagi sa MTB.” Mika’s quirky charm surely stands out in the soap and viewers should watch out for her portrayal of Mariko, who at first is Billie’s best friend but as the story progresses, she will become Billie’s greatest rival. Meant To Be airs weeknights after Alyas Robin Hood on GMA Telebabad.
