Khalil Joseph Nepomuceno Ramos (born January 22, 1996), known professionally as Khalil Ramos, is a Filipino actor and singer. In July 2011, he won second place on Pilipinas Got Talent, a reality talent show in ABS-CBN.[4][5] He is a recording artist and one of the talents of ABS-CBN's Star Magic.[1][3] In 2012, he was cast in his first teleserye project, Princess and I, top-billing with Kathryn Bernardo, Daniel Padilla and Enrique Gil.[6] He played the character of Felix Salonga (in his first starring role) in the critically acclaimed coming-of-age film 2 Cool 2 Be 4gotten and played Red Hernandez in the television series A Love to Last. He made a special appearance in the fantasy series La Luna Sangre, and has been upgraded to supporting character as the DJ turned vampire Lemuel Ruiz.

Personal life

Khalil Ramos was born January 22, 1996 in Parañaque City, Philippines to parents Lito Ramos and Tessa Nepomuceno, who are entrepreneurs. As of 2011, he was in his third year at Colegio San Agustin-Makati.[7][8]

Khalil was inspired by his father, who started to train him to be a singer at the age of 5. His talent were influenced by Michael Jackson, David Cook, Journey, and John Lennon.
