Pinky Amador Shares How Portraying Afternoon TV’s Most-Hated Character Became a ‘Physically and Emotionally’ Challenging Experience

Pinky Amador, known for her role as Moira, the formidable antagonist in the popular afternoon series “Abot-Kamay na Pangarap,” spends her taping days spreading fear and wreaking havoc on the lives of her fellow characters. However, the toll of embodying such a character takes its toll on Pinky both physically and emotionally. She admits that it’s challenging not to be affected by the intensity of her role. Pinky shared her strategies for shaking off the remnants of Moira after a long day of screaming, anger, and catfights. She turns to activities like watching Netflix, listening to spa music, or taking a hot bath to detox and separate herself from the character. Pinky’s portrayal of Moira has been incredibly effective, making her one of the most reviled characters on television. Social media is flooded with memes of her antics and clips of her confrontations garner views from fans and viewers who can’t stand her character. However, there are viewers who struggle to separate the character from the actress, leading to hate comments on Pinky’s social media platforms. Pinky deals with these comments in different ways, responding to rude and offensive remarks by screenshotting and posting them for accountability. However, she acknowledges that viewers who are simply caught up in the story are understandable. Pinky sees this situation as an opportunity to educate viewers and promote positivity amid negativity. She believes in the power of good storytelling and acknowledges that engagement, even if it’s negative, is still engagement. The success of the medical drama series, which premiered in September 2022, has led to its indefinite extension due to consistently high ratings. Pinky attributes this success not only to the engaging plot but also to the chemistry and camaraderie among the actors, creatives, and crew. She describes the working environment as rare and full of fun, with everyone chatting and laughing without boundaries. Pinky expresses gratitude for her co-actors, especially Jillian Ward, Richard Yap, Carmina Villaroel, and Dina Bonnevie. She has known Dina for 36 years and shares a close bond with her. Carmina always provides good recommendations, while Pinky admires Jillian’s professionalism and willingness to go the extra mile for a scene. As an experienced theater actor and acting coach, Pinky occasionally gives tips to her younger co-stars. She focuses on simple things like breathing techniques and voice control. However, she believes that acting coaches are crucial for the overall acting and approach to scenes. Pinky values collaboration and appreciates when directors bring fresh ideas to the table, preventing acting from becoming repetitive. When asked if she would continue playing Moira for a few more months, Pinky notes that it ultimately depends on the rest of the cast’s willingness. As long as the ratings remain high, Pinky sees no reason to end a successful show like “Abot-Kamay na Pangarap.”
