Just like her moniker “Diamond Star,” Maricel proves that she can match the energy of this generation’s content creators
Longevity, besides being a household name, is one of the calibers to a celebrity’s success. In an industry where time ticks quicker and an influx of stars come and go, only a few survive. That’s because besides talent, it takes attitude, consciousness, and hard work to thrive. And if we’re going to talk about someone who knows longevity like the back of her hand, it’s Maricel Soriano.

With a career spanning more than half a century, the actress proves that longevity has a lot to do with keeping up with time. Now that vlogging is the newest way to entertain and connect with fans, Maricel takes on the medium and adds her own flavor to it. With that said, here are the ways the actress has brought out her vlog game:
The rating game
If fellow celebrities are riding on the “jojowain o totropahin” vlog format, Maricel had her own twist by changing her choices to “diamond o bato” after her title. The best part about this vlog was the range of actors she included, from the veterans to the contemporaries.
Smart style swapping
In one of her recent uploads, Maricel did a style swap challenge with her Linlang co-star, Kaila Estrada. The best thing about the upload was the generation gap didn’t get in the way of their rapport. Both actresses were down in explaining their choices and sporting their “new” looks.
Game for anything
The actress didn’t last long in the industry by shying away from opportunities. In fact, she has always grabbed the chance to try out different activities, work with new actors, and bring a variety of content to her audience. This time, Maricel brought back her sports skills to go head-to-head with actor JM De Guzman for a game of billiards.
An ally move
A big reason why Maricel has withstood the changing tides of show business is because of her honest character. She is one of the most unfiltered and outspoken stars out there, and that goes for her beliefs. Maricel is one proud ally of the LGBTQ+ community, and she is not afraid to express her support. She particularly highlighted the drag community in one of her vlogs, even transforming herself to a drag queen through the help of Xilhouete.
