Coming from a family of celebrities, it’s no surprise that our King of Hearts Daniel Padilla started his showbiz career at a very young age. It also didn’t take long for him to get his big break and accumulate a long list of successful shows and movies that we’re having a hard time keeping track of. If you still remember that his first-ever appearance was on the 2010 reboot of Gimik, then you must be one solid fan. He played a minor role paired with Julia Montes in the popular youth-oriented series.

The charming prince of Liza Soberano’s heart, Enrique Gil, has also been in numerous kilig shows that we’ll never forget. He’s definitely come a long way from his notable teen musical dance series in 2011, Good Vibes. Though, most might not know that he’s appeared on television way before that because his first appearance was a short cameo in the 2008 romantic series I Love Betty La Fea.

Arjo Atayde, the son of the great Sylvia Sanchez, is widely known for his notable roles in teleseryes, from the science fiction drama E-Boy and revenge teleserye Dugong Buhay, to his more recent, acclaimed portrayals on FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano, Hanggang Saan, and The General’s Daughter. What most of us do not know is he started out as a child star back in 2001 on the second run of the popular comedy show, Ang TV 2.

With a journalist for a father and an actress for a mother, JM de Guzman easily got recognized for his talent at a young age. He was able to book some commercials before landing his lead role on Ang TV 2 as JM “Butik” de Guzman.

Jericho Rosales is one of the most iconic lead actors which led him to be called, “Asia's Prince of Dramas”. His first-ever teleserye hit was way back in 1997 when he played Buboy in Esperanza, a drama starring Judy Ann Santos and Wowie de Guzman.

Mr. Suave Vhong Navarro wasn’t always in the acting scene. He became wildly famous for his stint as a dancer on Streetboys before he got into hosting, acting, and comedy. Realizing his knack and passion for it, Vhong’s first appearance on TV was when he was casted on the top-rating 90s primetime laughfest, Home Along Da Riles, which starred the Comedy King Dolphy.
