Any rom-com veteran isn’t immune to its tried-and-tested tropes. The teleserye Can’t Buy Me Love is certainly proof of that, with many viewers gravitating to an unlikely pairing that’s winning their hearts–Snoop and Irene, played by Anthony Jennings and Maris Racal.
The two co-stars of the Donny Pangilinan- and Belle Mariano-led series have recently become the talk of the internet, thanks to a charming dynamic laced with Pinoy-branded comedy. In the trending show, Maris fills the shoes of Irene Tiu, the stepsister of Belle’s Caroline, who’s got a villainous and sassy streak of her own. On the other side of the spectrum is Snoop Manansala (Anthony), the best friend of Donny’s Bingo who seems like the antithesis of Irene. But as we all know, opposites attract, and the chemistry is palpable!
With every episode of Can’t Buy Me Love, the internet has entered its “Snorene” era, as several netizens vie for the pairing to reach endgame status. Below, check out the reactions this pairing pulled–because second lead couple syndrome is definitely real!
