Take a look back at Aiko Melendez's showbiz career that spans four decades.
Seasoned actress Aiko Melendez started her showbiz career as a child star in the 1980s.
The daughter of actor Jimi Melendez, Aiko was launched as the third batch of 'Regal Babies' with Carmina Villarroel and Ruffa Gutierrez.
Aiko Melendez and Carmina Villarroel used to host 'Eat Bulaga' from 1989-1995.
After almost 40 years in the industry, the Prima Donnas actress continues to give younger stars a run for their money.
Recently, Aiko made headlines when she revealed that she went from size 10 to size 6 during the quarantine with her calorie-counting diet.
At 44 years old, Aiko continues to be the definition of the saying “age is just a number” as she ages like fine wine.
