But wait until those wide, innocent-looking eyes turn fierce, and you&#x27;ll find yourself quivering in fear. With a single look, she can go from sweet to downright terrifying, which we think makes her a natural fit for kontrabida roles. Besides, this newcomer and “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pbbgen112024">Pinoy Big Brother Gen 11</a>” ex-housemate has been vocal about her fearless wish to take on &quot;bad girl&quot; characters in the near future.And because we can’t wait to see her in action, here’s an exciting first taste of her kontrabida prowess! In the video, she reenacts and adds her own fire and flair to some iconic scenes of Kapamilya female villains. Let’s just say her performance more than proves she’s got the makings of a true anti-hero on screen.<div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABQai7Tg-96NV-ip&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script></div>Her wild glare was on point as she channeled Lena Cortez (Mercedes Cabral) in her unforgettable confrontation with Coco Martin&#x27;s Tanggol and Ronwaldo Martin&#x27;s Santino from “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/batangquiapo">FPJ&#x27;s Batang Quiapo</a>.” She brought an air of impending chaos with every perfectly timed line as well. After the intense first round, she turned more low-key as she embodied Marga Bartolome (Andrea Brillantes) from “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/kadenangginto/videos/marga-nanggigil-sa-galit-sa-paninira-ni-nadya-252255">Kadenang Ginto</a>.” A subtle eyebrow raise and nonchalant delivery were all it took for Therese to capture Marga’s “Queen Bee” attitude.The emotional intensity soared as she copied Iris Buenavidez from “Lavender Fields,” particularly that scene where Iris coldly dismissed Tyrone’s (Jericho Rosales) pleas to leave the syndicate life behind. Therese nailed every bit of Iris&#x27;s icy smirk and perfectly balanced emotion and restraint. Even as a newcomer, she clearly understands that acting lies in the subtle details. And then comes her spine-chilling stare at the camera, channeling the sinister energy of Tori Soler originally portrayed by Dimples Romana in “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/highstreet2024/articles-videos/10-scenes-of-toris-bone-chilling-villainy-in-high-street-23153">High Street</a>.” Her chilling gaze will leave you shaking in fear!Therese looked absolutely comfortable looking terrifying on cam, which only proves she’s more than ready to become the next big kontrabida!
