AlBruce (Althea Ablan and Bruce Roeland).
GMA Network practically paved the way to stardom for Ablan, when she got chosen to play as young Alena in the 2016 reiteration of Encantadia. Similarly, Roeland had that path when he played minor roles in various Kapuso projects in the last five years.
This year, they are among the five new love teams introduced by their home Network.
Andi Abaya.
It’s difficult to miss the star-potential Abaya possesses, as it’s the same potential that made her stand out during her PBB season.
Since completing her PBB stint, the young ABS-CBN talent has gone leaps and bounds in her blossoming career.
Last year, she had her first film, and she also appeared in two drama series. This year, she will be starring in the upcoming Loisa Andalio and Ronnie Alonte-led series, Love in 40 Days.

Brent Manalo.

They are now in First Lady.
CJ Salonga.

Eian Rances.
Rances already had a growing social media popularity when he entered the Pinoy Big Brother house last year, as one of its celebrity housemates. Before his PBB stint, Rances had already immersed himself in showbiz through a few acting gigs and engagements. This year, there is no other way but up for him, as he ventured further into the realm of acting.
Ella Cayabyab.
It’s not debatable that Cayabyab is among Pinoy Big Brother Connect’s most successful housemates. The young Kapamilya talent has already immersed herself in acting via the web series, PasaBuy. She seems prepared for more challenging stints, as she forges her path towards stardom.
JaNia (Jamir Zabarte and Zonia Mejia).
As one of GMA Network’s five new promising ‘Sparkle’ love teams, JaNia is undoubtedly fully equipped to embark on a leading man and leading lady roles.

Ashley, on the other hand, has been playing young versions of main actors in GMA dramas, for a few years.

Kaloy Tingcungco.
This new Kapuso hottie had the local ‘boys love’ craze as his entry point to showbiz, in 2020. From then on, he forged his path into the mainstream, and he is now a certified Kapuso talent. His Little Princess stint should only serve as a beginning for bigger opportunities ahead.
KDLex (KD Estrada and Alexa Ilacad).
Ever since they completed his Pinoy Big Brother stint, in December, last year, both Estrada and Ilacad made a massive upsurge in their still young career. Having started as an aspiring musician and recording star, Estrada looks at a bright future filled with stardom and success.

Through his young matinee looks and already impressive talent, the Kapamilya start may subsequently land bigger roles this year, to expedite his bid.
Reiven Umali.
Winning the fifth year of Tawag ng Tanghalan may have handed Umali the golden ticket to penetrate showbiz, but it’s his vocal talent and inherent charm that can make him last longer than most of his contemporaries. A month after his TNT win, he released his debut, and he is now a mainstay performer on the popular Sunday musical variety show, ASAP Natin ‘To.
Renshi de Guzman.
While De Guzman is yet to star in a lead teleserye or movie role, the new Star Magic star holds a humongous potential to go places in show business. Those very projects are testaments to his overwhelming talent, which will surely fuel him to dash forward in his still young career.
Rob Gomez.
Hailing from the Ejercito-Estrada clan, Gomez has the makings of a movie and television star. His dashing looks makes him look tailor fit to take on matinee idol roles with ease.
