Pop Countdown of the Week: Top 10 Dramatic Teleserye Actresses

This is an era of soap operas. Actually, it has been like this for the past 20 years. Filipinos love teleseryes and soap operas  and watching them is a part of our daily lives. These soap operas would be incomplete without the girl protagonist who would endure all the trials and hardships life would offer to her on the entire run of the story.

So these actresses who played the protagonists of the story have been household names as well. They created fan clubs and followers among the masses who religiously follow their story on and off cam. 

Here is my list of the top 10 soap opera/teleserye actresses of this generation.

10.  Jennylyn Mercado

Currently playing a role of a woman with three split personality in Rhodora X. She said it's the most challenging role she had ever played.
