Multitalented Kapuso actor, performer, and businessman Rodjun Cruz is filled with gratitude as he renewed his contract with GMA Artist Center yesterday, November 4.

Being part of the GMAAC family for 8 years, Rodjun shares the reason why he stays loyal to his home network, "I'm very thankful and grateful to GMA for the opportunity and for always putting their trust in me. Nandito pa rin ako kasi mas lalo ko na-showcase ‘yung talents ko and mas madami akong natutunan sa kanila. Kasi sila yung nagbibigay sa akin ng iba't-ibang roles na dito ko lang din ginawa sa GMA. Mas lumalakas ‘yung loob ko, mas nahahasa ako as an actor, at the same time, nakakapag-perform ako kasi love ko rin talaga ang mag-perform."

As he celebrates the renewal of his contract, Rodjun looks back at all his proud Kapuso moments. "Nung nagstart ako sa Kapuso Network, first time ko magtrending ng ganoon sa My Husband's Lover. Noong nag-guest ako doon, grabe ang daming nag-message . Pinag-usapan talaga siya. 'Yun yung una dahil first time ko talaga ma-experience 'yun sa buhay ko kahit saan magpunta pinag-uusapan talaga. Tapos, dream ko rin kasi magkaroon ng action na palabas so first time ko rin naranasan 'yun na may power pa, noong ginawa ko ‘yung role as Paopao sa Encantadia. And siyempre, ‘yung Legally Blind. Nakaka-proud din ‘yung moments na magkasama kami ni Rayver sa isang stage at nagpe-perform."

Aside from his guestings in the weekend variety show ‘All-Out Sundays,’ Rodjun is gearing up for his lead role in the upcoming GMA series ‘Little Princess,’ with Jo Berry and Juancho Trivino. He considers this project a birthday gift from God.

"Hindi ma-contain ‘yung happiness ko. Very grateful ako kasi pinag-pray ko ‘yan kay Lord. Sabi ko, 'Lord, sana po bigyan Niyo pa po ako ng pagkakataon, bigyan Niyo po ako ng show na magagawa ko po ‘yung gusto ko, na mapapakita ko po yung talento ko at makaka-inspire ako ng madaming tao.' So noong tinawag nila sa akin 'yung , sabi ko 'Wow, grabe ka Lord, answered prayer na naman to! Naniniwala din kasi ako na birthday gift sa akin 'to ni Lord kasi nag-birthday ako noong October," he said.

Earlier this year, Rodjun took his fitness advocacy to the next level and launched his very own sports apparel - Cruzfit.
