Miguel Torrejos Tanfelix (born September 21, 1998) is a Filipino teen actor who is currently a contract star of GMA Network under GMA Artist Center. Tanfelix started his entertainment career as a finalist in StarStruck Kids where he finished as the First Prince (runner-up).
Tanfelix is known for his role as Young Pagaspas in the hit fantasy series Mulawin starring Angel Locsin and Richard Gutierrez. Ten years later, Tanfelix is now one of GMA Network's rising teen stars along with his on-screen partner Bianca Umali. Tanfelix received his breakthrough performance when he played the role Niño Inocente, a mentally challenged boy in the 2014 series Niño.
Tanfelix also starred in his own afternoon drama Wish I May opposite Umali.
Tanfelix was born on September 21, 1998, in Dasmariñas, Cavite. He is the eldest of the two children of Mary Grace Torrejos and Gary Tanfelix who are both educators and mountaineers. Although they live in Cavite, where Tanfelix attends regular school, the family also keeps a home in Parañaque to lessen Tanfelix’s traveling time when he is filming. Tanfelix finished high school at Cavite School of Life (Dasmariñas Campus) and is now currently studying entrepreneurship at De La Salle University-Dasmariñas. Aside from acting and schooling his sports and hobbies are basketball, wakeboarding and hiking. His passion for basketball is evident when he became one of the varsity players in his high school years.
Tanfelix is opposed to premarital sex. He is also hired by the Commission on Population (POPCOM) as celebrity ambassador for U4U, a youth initiative whose stated mission is to provide Filipino teenagers with critical information on delaying sexual debut and preventing sexually transmitted infections.
Tanfelix was only five years old when he joined the kiddie version of the reality-based artista search StarStruck in 2004. It was the artista search that made Jennylyn Mercado and Mark Herras (the show's very first winners) household names. Proclaimed as the season's First Prince, Tanfelix later joined the cast of the hit fantaserye Mulawin as Young Pagaspas. The following year, Tanfelix played the role of Rainier Castillo's younger version of Jimboy/Erastus in the 2006 fantaserye Majika, and played Pepe Javier in the afternoon drama Now and Forever: Linlang.
