Cecilia Obsum Rodriguez (March 17, 1938) is a Filipino actress. She has been referred to as "The Original Glamorous Movie Star" for her acting prowess and longevity.
She has appeared in more than 130 movies and television shows. She won four FAMAS Awards in the films Kulay Dugo ang Gabi, The Passionate Strangers, Lilet and Magnifico. She also received an award for Best Supporting Actress in the Metro Manila Film Festival for the movie Bulaklak sa City Jail. She is referred to as the industry's " fashion maverick."
Rodriguez went on an acting hiatus twice, first in the 1960s, when she worked as a fashion model in Europe, and in the 1980s and 1990s, when she resettled in the United States and at one point, took on two jobs simultaneously.
In 1999-2001 she starred in an afternoon drama called May Bukas Pa which aired on RPN 9 and IBC-13 and 2002-2003 played Cherie Gil's mother again in Bituin as Dona Virginia Gaston. Since 2004, she has starred in numerous television shows for GMA-7's and in two more incarnations of Darnas as the main villain. She was included in the GMA Network TV sitcom Who's Your Daddy Now? (2007) and the romantic-comedy series I Heart You, Pare! (2011) starring Dingdong Dantes and Regine Velasquez. In 2013, she returned to afternoon television in the highly acclaimed Magkano Ba ang Pag-ibig? with Maryo J. de los Reyes at the helm.
