Alden Richards with his 8x Platinum Award.
PAMBANSANG Bae Alden Richards has reached another milestone in his career.
His 2015 first full-length studio titled “Wish I May” under GMA Records is now a certified 8x Platinum. This means the album has already sold more than 120,000 units.
“Lahat ng awards is a reminder of how well you’re doing (and) how people are inspired by what you do so parang I take it as a token (because) people appreciate what I do in all aspects of my career,” Alden told GMA News.
Last Sunday, his colleagues in the noontime show “Sunday Pinasaya,” surprised the actor when he was presented his 8x Platinum Award.
“Sana (pang) habang buhay ko na dadalhin ang “Wish I May” album (kasi it) did so well. Talagang sobrang naging memorable because I never (thought) I will have an album na mag-e-eight times (platinum) in a lifetime. I’m very thankful talaga.”
Alden thanked his supporters and followers who have kept their faith in him since his journey in showbiz started.
“Of course, to the fans, to the supporters (and) to all who have been believing in me since the day I started—to my mom, my family, of course to my management. Sobrang thankful ako sa kanila,” said Alden.
