Metro Manila, PhilippinesOccupation Actress and TV Host and Producer ( C.A.N. TV Productions) Years active 1974-present Coney Reyes (born Constancia Angeline Reyes Nubla on May 27, 1953) is an award winning Philippine Film/TV actress, television host and producer with Chinese and Spanish descent. She has been one of the co-presenters of Student Canteen (1975–1982) and Eat Bulaga (1982–1991). She earned a degree of Bachelor of Arts major in Communication Arts at Maryknoll College (now Miriam College). Prior to her career on entertainment, Coney was a student leader and consistent dean's lister during her college days.
Coney made her movie debut in "Return of the Dragon" in 1975. She hosted for Student Canteen since its first airing on GMA Network in 1975. In 1982, Coney Reyes left Student Canteen for Eat Bulaga on RPN. In exchange, Chiqui Hollmann filled the slot Reyes vacated. Coney's hosting stint with Eat Bulaga opened more opportunities for her and she has co-starred with Dolphy, Fernando Poe Jr., Vilma Santos, Lorna Tolentino, Maricel Soriano, Helen Vela, Aiza Seguerra and Vic Sotto among others in several movies and TV programs.
Her weekend afternoon drama anthology "Coney Reyes on Camera" (1984–1998), which she was also a producer, was one of the successful top-rating programs aired on Saturday afternoons and brought home several awards and citations including Star Awards for TV, Catholic Mass Media Awards and the CAMACOP. She recently appeared in programs like "Ysabella," "Rubi" and "100 Days to Heaven" (her first leading role in TV or movie appearance since "Biyudo si Mister, Biyuda si Misis" in 1997) .
