Jericho "Echo" Vibar Rosales (born September 22, 1979) is a Filipino cinema and television actor, singer, and songwriter. He is the uncle of young actor John Manalo. He first appeared on television in 1996. He became popular for roles in the drama series Esperanza with his long former on-and-off screen partner Angelika dela Cruz, and the teen horror Oka Tokat. Rosales' breakout role was in Pangako Sa 'Yo with Kristine Hermosa.

Jericho Rosales attended New Era University for his secondary education and was later discovered on the television program Eat Bulaga!.

He has become known in Peru and Latin America for his role as Gabriel "Gael" Nakpil in Bridges of Love, first Philippine telenovela that airs on the continent. He is now being called the Asia's Drama King.


After winning the Mr. Pogi contest in Eat Bulaga, he became a regular host and performer in the said variety show and has appeared in different television shows. Rosales, however, became a well-known actor after he was paired to actress Angelika dela Cruz in the top-rating primetime drama series Esperanza and in the teen horror flick Oka Tokat. Their tandem made its way to the big screen through the blockbuster horror movie Magandang Hatinggabi. But their tandem was cut short when Dela Cruz decided to transfer to ABS CBN's rival network, GMA.

His breakout role came when he played the lead in Pangako Sa 'Yo alongside actress Kristine Hermosa. The series' success made Rosales and Hermosa the phenomenal loveteam of their time and has since appeared in different television shows and starred in blockbuster films such as Forevermore and Ngayong Nandito Ka. After the success of Pangako Sa 'Yo, he headlined another drama series, Sana'y Wala Nang Wakas, with actor Diether Ocampo. The series served as a reunion project with his long former on-and-off screen partner actress Angelika dela Cruz who had just returned to ABS CBN. After the success of Sana'y Wala nang Wakas, he starred in the epic fantasy series Carlo J. Caparas' Ang Panday.
