Menudo: Making Menudo
built 182 days ago
The target audience of "Making Menudo" has witnessed fights on MTV's "The Real World." It has laughed at even the harshest criticism on "Idol." But viewers beware: Sharp-tongued vocal coach David Coury can make Simon Cowell look positively sweet. One classic Coury quote involves the maestro telling kids as young as 13 that they "sound like the Vienna Boys' Choir on crack."

Menudo recently completed a reality show for MTV entitled Making Menudo that aired in prime-time, from October 25, 2007, to November 20, 2007 to choose the new members. These new members are José Bordonada Collazo, Chris Moy, Emmanuel Vélez Pagán, José Monti Montañez, and Carlos Olivero.

The music/reality channel is betting a remixed, remade Menudo will resurrect — or is it revive? — the boy-band craze that seems to regularly cycle through pop music. Making Menudo debuted last week, chronicling the high-pressure road to fame of 15 young males — including Sugar Land teen Juan Camillo González, who attends Clements High School.

González was pursuing acting earlier this year in Los Angeles when he heard about the Making Menudo auditions and gave it a shot. He failed to make the first cut but was unfazed.
