MANILA, Philippines - From the producers of the Argentinean telenovela hit Lalola comes the romantic comedy Amanda O.
Set to premiere on Q-11 starting tonight at 8:30, Amanda O brings a couple of firsts on Philippine television. It is the first foreign TV series dubbed in English and the first telenovela made available to viewers in three platforms: Television, Internet and mobile phone.
Amanda O played by Natalia Oreiro is fame immortalized. She is a renowned telenovela actress, a pop diva and certified newsmaker. Her face is not just seen on TV but all over the tabloids as well. She has become a paparazzi favorite. Amanda may detest all the made-up lies about her, but she is used to it.
Amanda is accused of being a thief. Beleaguered, Amanda breaks down and wishes she’s somebody else.
And so it happens. Amanda wakes up in an unfamiliar place the next day bruised, battered and disoriented. The next thing she sees confuses her all the more — another woman, not her, is on the poster of the new telenovela she stars in. Amanda makes her way home only to find out the same woman now owns her life, her identity, even her own name. No one, not even her own husband, recognizes her.
