OF THE cast members of GMA’s Sunday sitcom Ismol Family, unmistakably the longest in the industry with the most number of time-tested experiences ay walang iba kundi si Carmi Martin.
Dati ring nalinya sa pagpapaseksi si Carmi, but not bordering on the tacky, tasteless and tawdry flesh exposure. Disente kasi siya who gave the sex comedy genre a flavorful twist.
Maitatanong n’yo, just how old is Carmi now? In her fifties, all right, pero bukod tanging siya lang ang may K to do roles she became famous for: makiri at galawgaw na komedyana na marunong mag-alaga ng kanyang katawan, and yes, at ng kanyang magandang imahe she has built and maintained over the years.
In the light of the drugs issue among celebrities, wala ni minsan kaming nabalitaan na na-involve si Carmi sa usaping ‘yon nor has she ever been associated with undesirable peers.
Hindi na kami nagtataka why Carmi to this day earns the respect from her colleagues as well from TV/film producers na patuloy na nagtitiwala sa kanya via offers.
In Ismol Family, she plays Mama A, a cougar or a bagets killer yet kahit sino naman yatang mas batang lalaki riyan will still be enamoured by Carmi’s ageless beauty.
