Gavin Teo joins Mediacorp’s The Celebrity Agency: 'I’m looking forward to this new chapter'
The actor also tells 8days.sg if the recent video of him holding a girl's hand was a "publicity stunt" for this announcement.
Gavin Teo, the talented 32-year-old actor known for his melodious voice, has recently joined Mediacorp's The Celebrity Agency. The announcement has sparked curiosity about his new venture, but Teo remains focused on his career. He began his showbusiness journey in 2013 after participating in Mediacorp's talent-scouting reality show, Hey Gorgeous.
Teo's versatility has been showcased across both English and Chinese-language dramas, including The Teenage Textbook (2021), Unforgivable, and Taiwan's See You At 11pm. His portrayal of Hu Ying Jun in Mediacorp's 2024 series To Be Loved earned him a Best Actor nomination at Star Awards 2025.
Despite his newfound status as a Mediacorp artiste, Teo has not abandoned his music career. He expressed his excitement about the new chapter but clarified that acting is currently where he focuses his energy. Teo is also looking forward to challenging himself in various ways, including taking up dance classes, learning a new language, and even trying stunt training.
He recently started a fitness routine, enjoying the physical and mental benefits it provides. A viral video from a Mediacorp drama showed Teo dancing shirtless, which garnered significant attention. However, Teo dismissed the notion that it was a publicity stunt for his new announcement, stating that the timing was purely coincidental.
He also expressed his desire to keep his personal life, including his relationships, private. Teo hopes that people will focus on his work and the roles he takes on, rather than his personal life.
