Mendoza's career took off after her Dubsmash compilation, in which she impersonates Kris Aquino, went viral with one million views overnight. Mendoza began posting Dubsmash compilations on Facebook where one of the videos she posted got a million views over a period of 24 hours. This earned her the tag as the "Queen of Dubsmash."

Subsequently, she was cast as Yaya Dub, the nanny of Wally Bayola's character, Lola Nidora, in the Juan For All, All For Juan segment of Eat Bulaga.
