Young Hollywood

I'm Oliver Trevena here with Young Hollywood, the Hard Rock Universal City Walk with the band Menudo. Well, you just came off this big big reality show from MTV.

Menudo

The reality show is really crazy. It was really stressful and we never knew if we were going to go home the next day or if we were going to stay. To be representing the name, especially the name as big as Menudo, it was a legacy. It's definitely an honor.

Young Hollywood

Who are your influences?

Menudo

Usher. Ricky Martin. Luis Fonsi. He's like a a Latin singer. And Sync. I have to say Elvis Presley.

Young Hollywood

So lads, I'm sure there's thousands of women out there getting ready in the mirror, thinking if only I can meet Menudo. What are you guys looking for? Give 'em a few tips.

Menudo

I'm a sucker for light eyes. So if you have light eyes, then you already have my heart. I think good personality and um, a girl that has confidence and um, I like a girl that smells good. Someone you can just chill at your house and watch movies, but go to a theme park as well and do like different stuff. A person you can have fun with. To love and care for each other. I like girls with attitude. You know, I like girls that you know just like argue with me and argue back and I mean I think it's sexy.

Young Hollywood

There we have it. You want light eyes, she showers, has fun but also gives you grief at the end of the night. Nice. Perfect woman. I'm sure there's a lot of them out there 'cause I've had my experience. What's the craziest moment with a girl fan of yours?

Menudo

We were actually in Lafayette, Louisiana on tour with the Jonas Brothers and we stopped at a inn, we had a couple hours of downtime and uh we we fell asleep for a little bit and we woke up to about like ten girls in the window spying on us, like watching us sleep for who knows how long.

Young Hollywood

Jonas Brothers, how's that?

Menudo

I mean them guys are absolutely insane. It was really crazy touring with them. The biggest crowd we've ever like performed for. They're just really cool down to earth guys and they're very humble.

Young Hollywood

I was just in Spain. Got no love at all. Can't speak Spanish. Teach me something to say to the ladies.

Menudo

You can say you're beautiful, tu eres bonita.

Young Hollywood

Tu eres bonita.

Menudo

Yeah. Yeah! Hola mi amor, como estas.

Young Hollywood

Hola mi amor, como estas. Okay, right. Got that one.

Menudo

We can put it together what Monty taught you, you know, so like, hola mi amor, como estas, tu eres bonita.

Young Hollywood

Hola mi amor, como estas, tu eres bonita. Yeah. Yeah. I am so gonna go out with a Latin girl tomorrow. Damn, I'm gonna lose it, 'cause I'm losing my head, losing my mind. Sure enough myself, this time she's got me. Losing my head, losing my mind. Sure enough myself, this time she's, damn I'm already lost.

Menudo

Big shoutouts to Young Hollywood. Hugs and kisses. We love you.
