GMA-7's teaser about an "award-winning actress" signing very soon with the Kapuso network quickly caught the attention of showbiz fans.
Netizens have been posting on social media their guesses, and some the names that came out were Kris Aquino (because of the way "K" in "Kapuso" was emphasized in the art card) and Bea Alonzo (because of the copy "BE A KAPUSO.")
But surprisingly, one of the names that became a hot topic on Twitter was American actress Meryl Streep.
Meryl has at least a total of 177 wins and 407 nominations in different award-giving bodies, hence, she is without a doubt an "award-winning actress."
"Meryl Streep" even became a trending topic for most netizens whose top trends section on Twitter is set on personalized trends or based on their preferences and the people they follow on social media.
Here are some of the netizens' playful tweets about Meryl as the "new Kapuso."
GMA-7 is set to make its official announcement soon.
Earlier today, PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) reported that it will most likely be Bea Alonzo.
