Check out Miguel Tanfelix's progress from a kiddie star to a sought-after young actor.

Miguel Tanfelix is one of the most versatile Kapuso actors of his time. From acting, dancing, singing, hosting, to modeling--Miguel has done it all.

The 21-year-old actor was just five years old when he was recognized as StarStruck Kids First Prince in 2004. A year later, he earned the role of Pagaspas in the epic Kapuso telefantasya Mulawin.

In the following years, from 2007 to 2012, Miguel bagged the younger roles of some of the lead characters in several Kapuso dramas.

He played Young Aldrin Griego in Pati Ba Pintig ng Puso, Young Junjun in La Vendetta, and Langit sa Piling Mo's young Thirdy, among others.

Miguel received his breakthrough acting performance when he played the role of Niño Inocente, a mentally challenged boy in the 2014 series Niño.

His portrayal earned him three different acting nominations from PMPC Star Awards for TV, PEP List Awards, and Golden Screen TV Awards.

From there, Miguel grew up in front of the camera, appearing in more programs and endorsements and even starting his own milk tea business.
