MOVIE actor Armando Goyena had to play a woman in the '50s before he could become a star.
The part was the title role in the 1953 comedy "Tiya Loleng" with Tessie Quintana, which was filmed at least three decades before Dustin Hoffman made "Tootsie" and Robin Williams played "Mrs. Doubtfire."
"They imitated us," Goyena chuckles. "The movie became a big hit, and that's how I made some money to marry."
Goyena, now over 80, was married to Francisca Roses, also called Paquita, the first Camay soap model, with whom he had seven daughters and a son. Two of these daughters first became movie stars themselves-Maritess Revilla, who was also a soap model, and Tina Revilla, who later became a television host.
