In an interview on "Umagang Kay Ganda" on Wednesday, Bautista explained that this is the reason why Villena jokingly calls her "Mom."
"Nakakaloka na mom 'yung tawag niya sa akin kasi napagkamalan talaga kaming mag-ina sa Japan. Ang supal (kapal) ng face ng immigration officer ng Japan, napagkamalan niya ako... 'Is he your son?' Sabi ko, 'No, he is my friend.' Tapos nag-sorry siya, 'I'm very sorry.' Sabi ko, 'It's okay just let me pass.' Nakakatuwa," Bautista recalled.
Asked of her term of endearment for Villena, Bautista was quick to say: "Love. ...Ganoon talaga, platonic, motherly."
Bautista shared that their friendship also started when they were in Japan.
"Close lang po. Masaya lang po, masaya. Steady lang po," she said of their relationship.
This weekend, Bautista is set to impersonate Donna Summer on "Your Face Sounds Familiar."
