Remember Maria Teresa Carlson? She was a big star in the 8os and a mainstay in the popular TV sitcom "Chicks to Chicks." She was best remembered for her witty dialogues of "si ikaw, si ako..." which eventually earned her starring roles in some Tagalog movie spoofs--- "Wander Woman si Ako" and "Si Ako at ang Tres Moskiteros."In 2001, Ms Carlson, jumped to her death from the 23rd floor of the Platinum 2000 condo in Greenhills. She was a victim of domestic violence.
