I didn't like her acting on TV when she was starting out as a teen actress years ago. I mean I didn't really enjoy her seeing act before. I just adore her but I am not a fan of her acting because she obviously have to learn a lot. Or maybe, they kept putting her in a role that doesn't fit her. I don't know. I might not have like her acting but there was something in her that piqued my interest. I cannot tell at that time. I thought there is something in her that makes me think she is the most interesting girl I have seen on TV few years ago. I feel that she will be a revelation someday. She was indeed a revelation to me this 2016! I often times hear her make the headline local showbiz news going through some relationship shit and then media feasted on her suffering. I didn't bother checking the news at all not until I come across TRMD in one of my online quest this new year. Seeing her transform stronger and fiercer, my heart skipped a bit and I "fist pump" chanting to myself, "I knew it". There is something in her that I know will eventually come out in time. I use to have a girl crush on her, now I have a respect and deep admiration for her. Just as I thought I have discovered a lot about her, I just found out that she replaced Marian River in playing the first ever lesbian lead character as Jade Tanchingco. For 16 hours straight, I watched the show online.I literally fell in love with her! Thanks to the up loader! Watching her on TRMD for the first time was a blast for me. The girl's acting has transformed and has really improved! I am not sure if it was balanced because of the energy coming from Glaiza but I was so beautifully shocked of how much intense Rhian was this time on her role as Jade. Was I too bias? I am not sure. But for the first time, I am watching her as an actress who can really channel the emotion required on the scene. I was thinking, the challenges she went through might have fueled her pain that she can justifiably act her role as Jade Tanchingco putting us into a roller coaster feelings. REASONS WHY I JOINED A FANDOM FOR THE FIRST TIMEFAN SERVICE DEDICATIONThey tease their fans by actively participating in social media. They really just know how to make their fans root for them all the more. They sometimes playfully flirt on each other online. They send each other's messages. They engage in their fan's delusional funny expectations. In the name of fan service, they sometimes give in to some of the fans wishes. It means, they are already very comfortable to each other. We get to know more about them on how they interact with their fans. We get to see their differences and their values in life through their interviews. I can now see why they click together as "Jathea, ang love team ng taon". RASTRO IS REALReal talk, I have never seen such couple internationally and locally who have gone such an effort to extend their fans' joy even after the show. The effort these two pulled just to make us happy is beyond impressive! This photo was shared by Rhian on her twitter account as a way to thank devoted TRMD fans for their endless support. This was one of their genuine "together time" as she puts it with Glaiza just to relax while eating fishball and pretzels without interviews or anything. So far, this is my favorite because it speaks of simplicity and genuineness that they are really good friends off cam. Rhian is the kind with a game attitude. She seemed to be the kind who can accept any dare pointed at her.She is more comfortable being goofy and playful in public. Glaiza on the other hand is more reserved and very careful in her actions and words.She has this deepness and insight giving me the impression that she is a keeper. It takes time to get her trust, but once you do, she can keep you for life. I don't know, I get that impression on her. Their friendship off cam!THEY SHIP THEIR OWN SHIPaaahh Rhian, how can you be so effortlessly breezy.THE MOST SOLID AND DEDICATED FANBASEPhoto was taken from an event organized by one of their most professional fan group RRI (Rastro Rebels International) and TRMD ROOFTOPPERS. Of all the fanbased events, this is so far my favorite group who have ever organized a Rastro event because of the amount of Professionalism displayed. The event was light and simple. Both ladies were very comfortable. All fans locally and internationally get the channce to send their questions to these ladies and party with them online. The dedication was real.The fan base was unbelievable.There's team translate, their is team bahay, there is rastro army etc. These groups work together hand in hand unpaid and out of dedication just to have international fans understand and be as involved as possible making sure no one is left behind. I love how these groups refrain from the non sense endless dumb questions thrown at RASTRO. Questions such as "is there a chance that they can be together" or "if you were straight" or things like that. I love that they have the questions directed on the characters separating RASTRO from JATHEA characters. I also loved the fact that the members of these fanbase are close my age and they were really serious in guarding RASTRO from spreading childish negative vibes. Who in the world will go through sleepless nights coordinating events, making their show trend in social media for free but RASTRO REBELS. These people were the ones responsible in sending funny memes and spreading good vibes online. You can see their genuine support to these ladies as a way to repay them for their generous fan service and genuine contribution to the LGBT community. This is the first time that we get to see lesbian themed show ever air in Philippine TV where the main character is gay. Usually, we see gay characters on TV playing minor roles either as psychotic, emotionally unstable and suicidal. GMA was bold enough to put another gay themed show. It was a treat but it was even a blessing to have such gracious actors. To be frank,they don't need to still entertain us after the show. They can move on after that but they have shipped themselves more than their fandom can. They help bring "RASTRO" replacing "JATHEA" after the show. I also need to add, the most creative fans ever! Ambibilis ng mga utak! ON SCREEN CHEMISTRYI remember the first "staring" at each other scene, that was it! The feelings was intense, confused,raw and irresistible. I am not sure if Rhian getting the script on two days before the shooting has helped because the emotions she has to put on the show is "nangangapa". How could Glaiza ever survive a "Rhian Ramos" stare. Or, could it be the reason why she has to close her eyes? Hahaha! THEY DON'T NEED TO KISS ON THE LIPS JUST TO MAKE US FEEL THEIR LOVE FOR EACH OTHERWell,that was almost close. Rhian admittedly said in one of her interviews that if given the chance, she would put a kiss on the show considering the built in on their relationship. For her, a kiss is justifiable and needed because it is a natural thing when you fall in love with a person. For Glaiza, she doesn't have any problem with it because to her, she gets to kiss male counterpart but why not a female partner? According to scrip writer Cess Dalmas, they have to observed strict limitation imposed by MTRCB. Local viewers can understand but a lot of international fans do not get it. I can also understand but what I do not understand was it is okay to include morbid rape since, discrimination against women, child molestation and detailed rape scenes but a kiss between two women who happens to fall in love wasn't allowed. Even if they were never allowed to kiss on TV, for some reason, Jade's words to Deybid keeps coming back to me every time I see fans online demanding for a kiss. But hey, who am I kidding. Here's the kiss that never was aired on TV! So darn worth the wait!STUNNERS!THEY MAKE THE CORNIEST TERMS OF ENDEARMENT VERY ENDEARINGTHE NAUGHTIEST REBELS !PINAUSO ANG MGA SUMUSUNODFavorite Food: HOPIA Favorite hobby: SUMAGWAN Favorite Terms of Endearment: LABLAB, SHOBE (little Sister) Loveteam of the year: JATHEA/ RASTRO Titles: Breezy Queen, Queen G Fanbase: Rastro Rebels Official, Rastro Rebels International, Rastro Rebels Army, Pechays ,Rooftoppers Individual Fanbase supporter: Cybherians, Team Galura It has also given birth to a lot of creative twitter,youtube and facebook fan accounts.

Some found courage and comfort through the show and some get involved for once to something that represent themselves.
