He discovered his extraordinary voice while doing a poultry work: singing in both a male tenor voice and a strikingly convincing female soprano voice. He shot to fame with his appearance on Philippine's Got Talent Season 2 in 2011. At the course of his Philippines Got Talent stint, he was able to fulfill his lifelong dream to reunite with his family. During the same TW interview, Pomoy recounted how the night of his win paved the way for the reunification of his family. While their reunion was a momentous event for all of them, he admitted that this development would not entirely mend their long-broken familial ties.

He effortlessly performed his rendition of “The Prayer” during the Pilipinas Got Talent (PGT) Season 2 Grand Finals Night. He was declared the grand champion of “Pinoy’s Got Talent (PGT)” Season 2. Marcelito was dubbed as “a Man with a Golden Female Voice”.
