Career
His team up with de Leon in the mid and late 1990s made him very popular: Their TV shows gained sky-high ratings and their movies are certified blockbuster hits. He was paired with other actresses during that time, but his popularity almost came to a halt when in 1998 at the peak of his and de Leon's popularity when Angelu admitted to the public that she was pregnant with Joko Diaz's child. Despite this, Bobby had the full support of his mother company Viva and managed to get remarkable TV and movie roles as a solo actor. After breaking away from Viva in 2002, he shifted from matinee idol roles to offbeat roles in several ABS-CBN and GMA Network shows.
In 2009 Bobby appeared in the Philippine remake series of Zorro aired on GMA Network. He was part of the installment of Sine Novela called Kaya Kong Abutin Ang Langit with Iza Calzado, Wendell Ramos and Angelika dela Cruz.
In 2010, he went back to ABS-CBN to be part of the Precious Hearts Romances Presents of Martha Cecila's Impostor. He is now seen in the hit primetime remake of Emil Cruz Jr.'s Mara Clara.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
