JUST A THOUGHT: “Let him who would enjoy a good future waste none of his present.” – Roger Babson

WHAT ALDEN WANTS: At the peak of his popularity, Alden Richards says all he wants is to inspire people.
“I want them to do good, feel good about themselves, be responsible,” he stated the day he renewed his exclusive contract with GMA.
As if to prove his point, Alden said he wants to sing more praise songs in his future recordings.
Alden has been with GMA the past five years. He said he will remain a loyal Kapuso, adding that he feels blessed working for the network.
Alden is considered a homegrown artist of GMA. He rose from the ranks, starting with a slot on reality show “Starstruck.” He got his big break as teleserye leading man on “Alakdana.” He went on to star in more TV drama series until big-time stardom came by way of his tandem with Maine Mendoza on “Eat Bulaga” in 2015.
GMA, he said, has been helpful in fulfilling all of his dreams.
An all-around entertainer, Alden is likewise a multi-platinum recording artist and popular commercial endorser.
He is currently seen in a key role on iconic primetime series “Encantadia.”
