Maine Mendoza MAINE MENDOZA Nicomaine Dei Capili Mendoza (born March 3, 1995 in Santa Maria, Bulacan, Philippines), popularly known as Yaya Dub or Maine Mendoza[1][2], is a Filipina comedienne, television personality and host.[3] She currently appears in the noontime variety show Eat Bulaga! airing on GMA Network and worldwide via GMA Pinoy TV as one of the co-hosts.[4][5] Personal life Mendoza was born and raised on the municipality of Sta. Maria in the province of Bulacan in the Philippines. She is the fourth of five siblings. She finished elementary and high school in St. Paul College located at Bocaue, Bulacan. Mendoza got a bachelor degree on De La Salle-College of St. Benilde. She pursued on the job training for her profession at The Sagamore in Bolton Landing, New York.[6] Career Mendoza's career took off after her Dubsmash compilation, in which she impersonates Kris Aquino, went viral with one million views overnight.[7] Mendoza began posting Dubsmash compilations on Facebook where one of the videos she posted got a million views over a period of 24 hours.[8] This earned her the tag as the "Queen of Dubsmash." This opened several opportunities for Mendoza. She had the opportunity to collaborate with many other Dubsmashers, met Kris Aquino herself and auditioned for Eat Bulaga. Subsequently, she was cast as Yaya Dub, the nanny of Wally Bayola's character, Lola Nidora, in the Juan For All, All For Juan segment of Eat Bulaga.[9] Mendoza's character "Yaya Dub" whom she portrayed is paired with fellow Eat Bulaga co-host Alden Richards, in a rom-com/drama sketch/segment on the show entitled "KalyeSerye". Mendoza and Richards are set to appear in a proposed 2015 Metro Manila Film Festival entry entitled Romcom-in Mo Ako. The reported movie stars are Vic Sotto and Ai-Ai de las Alas. The film will be directed by Jose Javier Reyes.[10] Source: Wikipedia 'Yaya Dub' ng Eat Bulaga na si Maine Mendoza, ‘secret dream’ ang maging isang artista By Bianca Rose Dabu, GMA News Nakilala ang 20-year-old netizen na si Nicomaine Mendoza dahil sa kaniyang mga nakatutuwang 'Dubsmash' videos, kung saan makikitang nagli-lip sync siya ng iba't ibang eksena mula sa mga TV shows, pelikula, patalastas, at marami pang iba. Dahil sa milyon-milyong views na nakamit ng kaniyang mga video, binansagan na siyang “Dubsmash Queen” sa social networking sites. Nitong mga nagdaang linggo, naging kapansin-pansin na isa na siya sa mga regular na napanonood sa “Sugod Bahay: Juan for All, All for Juan” segment ng longest-running noontime show na “Eat Bulaga.” Dito ay kasama niya sina Jose Manalo, Paolo Ballesteros, at Wally Bayola, aka Lola Nidora. Ipinakilala si Maine bilang si Divina Ursula Bukbukoba Smash, o "Yaya Dub" ni Lola Nidora. Hindi man siya nagkakaroon ng dialogue, aliw na aliw naman ang mga manonood sa live niyang pagli-lip sync, pagse-selfie, at sa mga todo-bigay niyang facial expressions. Sa episode ng “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho” nitong Linggo, ibinahagi ni Maine ang kaniyang pagkahilig sa pag-e-emote sa harap ng camera at kung paano ito naging daan upang matupad niya ang isa sa kanyang mga pangarap. Bago siya makilala dahil sa kaniyang “Dubsmash” videos, graduate si Maine ng Culinary Arts mula sa De La Salle-College of St. Benilde. Naging abala rin siya sa on-the-job training sa isang resort sa New York City, USA. Estudyante pa lamang daw siya ay mahilig na siyang mag-lip sync at umarte sa harap ng camera. Kaya naman agad siyang nahumaling sa application na “Dubsmash” at walang kahirap-hirap niyang napapatawa ang mga nakakanood ng kaniyang videos. “Nung inapload ko, noong una, nagkaroon ako ng 1,000 views. Tapos naalala ko, ang saya-saya ko na 'Wow, may 1,000 views ang video ko.' Tapos hanggang sa gabi, umabot na siya ng 50,000. So proud na proud ako, sinasabi ko pa sa mga kapatid ko, sa mga magulang ko. Tapos kinabukasan, nag- one million views! Hindi ko talaga ine-expect,” kuwento ni Maine. Dagdag pa niya, “Napansin agad sa first video ko, yung kay Kris Aquino. Ginagaya ko siya sa pagwa-wacky ko, pero normal na sa akin 'yon. Bata pa lang ako, sanay na akong mag-wacky. Kapag kausap ko mga kaibigan ko, mga kamag-anak ko, yung reaksyon ko talaga is wacky-wacky lang.” Ngayon, nagpapasalamat ang dalaga sa lahat ng mga nag-like at nag-share ng kanyang videos dahil naging daan raw ito upang ma-discover siya ng “Eat Bulaga” at matupad ang pangarap niyang maging artista. Aniya, “Ito 'yung secret ultimate dream ko, maging artista. Pero hindi ko siya sinasabi sa friends ko or hit kanino kasi feeling ko pagtatawanan lang ako kapag nalaman nilang gusto kong maging artista. Ang tingin ko sa pag-aartista noon, medyo impossible. Wala naman akong talent or kahit ano." "Nagulat din yung family ko na biglang ganito. Nakakagulat talaga kasi secret ultimate dream ko 'yon, and nandito na ako. I'm getting there. Living the dream,” dagdag pa ng dalaga. Hindi naman itinanggi ni Maine na kinabahan siya sa unang pagsalang niya sa naturang noontime show, lalo na't makakasama niya ang mga batikang hosts at komedyante na sina Jose, Wally, at Paolo, at makakasama rin siya sa paglilibot ng mga ito sa iba't ibang barangay. Higit umano sa lahat, naging hamon sa kanya ang pagli-lip sync sa live television. Hindi katulad ng pagre-record sa cell phone at pag-upload online, wala raw siyang pagkakataong itama ang kanyang pagkakamali sa telebisyon. Pagbabahagi ng “Dubsmash Queen” ng Pilipinas, “Noong una po, natatakot ako kasi biglang salang. Wala akong workshop, wala akong pinagdaanang kahit ano. Dubsmash lang talaga at yung pagpapangit ko lang sa camera. Pero ayun, tingin ko medyo okay naman, saka natututo naman ako.” -- FRJ, GMA News - See more at: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/522246/showbiz/chikaminute/yaya-dub-ng-eat-bulaga-na-si-maine-mendoza-secret-dream-ang- maging-isang-artista#sthash.OoFXlYVH.dpuf Maine Mendoza a.k.a.

Yaya Dub Maine Mendoza as herself and (below) as Yaya Dub, the factotum (alalay) to Wally Bayola’s Lola ni Dora on the Problem-Solving portion of Eat, Bulaga’s Juan For All/All For Juan segment. The girl described as a ‘Pops Fernandez lookalike’ is the GMA noontime show’s new hit attraction. — Photos from Eat, Bulaga! Facebook and Maine Mendoza What you see is what you get. “Off television, I am still the same,” admits Nicomaine Dei Capili Mendoza, Maine for short, 20 (born on March 3, 1995 in Sta. Maria, Bulacan), meaning she’s not role-playing on Eat, Bulaga! but just being herself. “I make faces even in public, mahilig talaga ako sa ganoon, that’s why hindi pilit ang ginagawa ko kaya natural na natural.” As Yaya Dub, the factotum (alalay) to Wally Bayola’s fashionista Lola ni Dora (formerly a doctor) on the Problem-Solving portion of Bulaga’s Juan For All/All For Juan segment, Maine has become an overnight sensation in the barely two weeks she has been on the show, with her “dubsmash” antics complete with rubbery facial expressions an instant hit with the viewers. “I am happy with what I’m doing because that’s what I have been doing for a long time now,” adds Maine who is also known as (a.k.a.) Mae, Divina Ursula and Bukbukova. She’s among five siblings of a family that supports her all the way, except that her parents would rather maintain their privacy. Asked what kind of family she comes from, Maine gives this much information, “Ok naman, medyo may kaya. Sakto lang, middle-class.” Asked what her parents’ professions are, she begs off, “Secret po!” A Culinary Arts graduate from La Salle St. Benilde, Maine did her OJT (On the Job Training) at a resort in Upstate New York. She took advantage of hiring opportunities offered for new graduates by US-restaurant/resort owners and stayed in New York for six months. She was in college when she started uploading videos and pictures online. “I love editing videos and pictures and then I started uploading my compilation on my Facebook.” The compilation included her Dubsmash impersonation of Kris Aquino and that catapulted Maine as a YouTube star. Now she’s known as “the Queen of Dubsmash.” It didn’t take long for her to catch the attention of those behind Bulaga. Maine joined dozens of aspirants and handily won the plum by, well, just being herself. “Initially, dapat lawyer ang papel ko and I ended up a yaya,” a role that has proven to be the perfect match for Wally’s Lola ni Dora who foils the yaya’s “dubsmashing” with her own distinct pabebe manner of talking (like a baby). Yaya Dub seldom smiles or laughs (although she’s sometimes caught off- guard doing so), hiding behind an ubiquitous red fan so wide that it can cover Broadcast City from where Bulaga is telecast. She’s forever shielding Lola ni Dora from the sun with that fan, gently swaying it to keep Lola ni Dora cool. Does Maine see her own lola in Lola ni Dora? “No,” says Maine. “Mas strikto siya sa lola ko.” Far left: Yaya Dub and Lola ni Dora are a perfect match, reminiscent of Dely Atayatayan and Matutina in the hit Dolphy/Nida Blanca sitcom John en Marsha years ago. Left: Flirting with Bulaga on-studio co-host Alden Richards with a pabebe-style wave of the hand.

  • Reinforcing Myths About Women in Philippine Culture 275
    Mendoza / Reinforcing Myths About Women in Philippine Culture 275 REINFORCING MYTHS ABOUT WOMEN IN PHILIPPINE CULTURE Semiotic Analyses of the Sexbomb Girls in Eat Bulaga’s Laban o Bawi Trina Leah Mendoza University of the Philippines Los Baños [email protected] Abstract Movie and TV stars are an influential part of Philippine society. Not only do they entertain audiences with their television shows or movies, but their private lives and actions are arguably as interesting to the public. Celebrities and stars are admired, idolized, and looked up to by many of their followers, such that their values and actions can greatly influence their fans. However, their images may hold various meanings that are not evident to many people. This study analyzes a group of unconventional stars that changed the landscape of noontime viewing—the Sexbomb Girls—using a semiotic approach. It seeks to reveal the different images of women portrayed by the Sexbomb Girls, and understand how media can reinforce myths. The Sexbomb Girls were a social phenomenon and a product of production that depicted binary oppositions and metaphors: virgin/vamp, loud woman, and ordinary woman. These signs, binary oppositions, and metaphors served as myths that naturalized, influenced, and reinforced sexy female background dancers into becoming an ordinary part of noontime and game shows. Because they appeared six days a week in Eat Bulaga, the Sexbomb Girls have desensitized the Filipino masses such that seeing sexily clad background dancers in these shows has become ordinary and acceptable. Keywords binary oppositions; metaphors; semiotics; Sexbomb Girls; signs; social phenomenon Kritika Kultura 33/34 (2019/2020): 275–298 © Ateneo de Manila University <http://journals.ateneo.edu/ojs/kk/> Mendoza / Reinforcing Myths About Women in Philippine Culture 276 About the Author Trina Leah Mendoza is an assistant professor at the Department of Development Broadcasting and Telecommunication, College of Development Communication, University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB).
