"Pepito Manaloto" star John Feir was especially happy to renew his contract with GMA Artist on Wednesday.

During Wednesday's signing, the actor, comedian and writer said he was grateful to be a Kapuso since the 2003 sketch comedy "Nuts Entertainment," when he first stepped into the limelight.

"Masayang masaya po ako at ilang taon na rin ako sa Artist Center at sa GMA," Feir told reporters.

"'Yung binibigay po nila sa 'kin ay walang katapat na kasiyahan."  

He signed with GMA Artist Center AVP and head for Talent Imaging and Marketing Unit Simoun Ferrer and GMA Artist Center Senior Talent Manager Tracy Garcia.

John officially joined GMA Artist Center in 2005, and in the last 14 years, he was able to breath life to many memorable characters in both the comedy and drama department.

John had appeared in several shows like "Mahiwagang Baul," "Alyas Robinhood," and "The Cure. He also gave a powerful dramatic performance on GMA's 2014 Holy Week Drama Special "#MichaelAngelo." He now appears on "Pepito Manaloto " which he has been a part of since 2010.

However, one of Feir's most memorable showbiz moments was on "Nuts Entertainment," when he made the big leap from off-cam production to on-cam stardom.

The actor was actually working as a floor director on the comedy show before becoming "Belli Flori," who's  one half of the hilarious cross-dressing duo Cookie and Belli in the segment "Balakubak."

Looking back on that after renewing his contract on Wednesday, Feir said he was really looking forward to a lot more projects with GMA.

"Napaka-worth it po, at marami po akong natutunan sa GMA," he said.

"Marami po akong natutunan, at mas marami pa akong matututunan." — LA, GMA News
