Manolo Pedrosa is now officially a Kapuso as he recently signed a contract with the GMA Artist Center.

Manolo was a former housemate of Pinoy Big Brother, joining the ABS-CBN reality show’s “All In” edition in 2014.

He was just sixteen when he entered the PBB house and became known to TV viewers as the good natured kid from a rich family.

He was first partnered with Maris Racal, a fellow contestant in the reality show, after the PBB edition.

The two even had a movie together, but their tandem didn’t push through and eventually ended.

His appearance on TV also became few and far between.
