Career
At the age of 5, he attended the National Circus school in Havana. When he was 9, his family relocated to Miami, Florida.[2] In his later teens, after attending acting school, Valdés appeared in the first season of the soap opera Grachi, where he portrayed Sibilo "Ora" Santisteban. In 2012, he played Miguel Ángel Samaniego in the soap opera El rostro de la venganza, co-starring with Kimberly Dos Ramos and María Gabriela de Faría (who worked with him on Grachi). In 2014, Valdés began filming the soap opera Voltea pa' que te enamores (2015), a new adaptation of the Venezuelan telenovela of the same name.[3][4]
In May 2013, Valdés formed the Mexican boy band CD9 with Jos Canela, Alonso Villalpando, Alan Navarro, and Freddy Leyva. They independently released their first single, "The Party", in August 2013. They later signed a recording contract with Sony Music México.[5] Valdés left the group in October of that year, citing "personal reasons", and was replaced by Bryan Mouque. He later revealed, in a 2016 interview, that he left the group not because of conflict with his members (as he said that he was on good terms with them) but because management promised him food and lodging in Mexico, yet was not able to provide this for him.[6]
In May 2015, Valdés released "#MAS", his first single as a soloist.[7]
Valdés appeared as a co-host on the Univision morning show ¡Despierta America! before his firing in 2017.[8] He was also a co-host on the Estrella TV morning talkshow Buenos Días Familia but left the show in January 2019, before its cancellation in June that year.
