Benjamin Alves on throwback photo: “#ithoughtiwasnelly” Read more:

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but nothing has prepared Kapuso actor Benjamin Alves for this.

On Instagram, Benjamin is regretting a look he's worn in the early 2000s through a throwback photo of himself wearing hip-hop clothing in his teens.

In the caption, he wrote, “I want to say this was Halloween 2001, but no, this was just 2001.”

The young Ben was wearing a red snapback, two layers of oversized shirts, baggy trousers, red sneakers, and silver jewelry.

I want to say this was Halloween 2001, but no, this was just 2001. #throwbackthursday #yesthatsaDURAG #ithoughtiwasnelly #willDEFINITELYdeletelater

He eventually added some witty hashtags like, “#yesthatsaDURAG,” “#ithoughtiwasnelly,” and “#willDEFINITELYdeletelater.”

The photo did ensue some laughs especially from his co-stars and fellow Kapuso actors Sanya Lopez and Tom Rodriguez.
