Now – two generations later – a new, updated version of MENUDO is back, with a contemporary sound and look, and the same universal appeal. The five new members Carlos Olivero (19 years old, Mexican/Puerto Rican, Chicago, IL); Chris Moy (16 years old,
Puerto Rican/Venezuelan/Chinese, Bronx / Dutchess County, NY); Emmanuel Vélez-Pagán (18 years old, Puerto Rican, Trujillo Alto, PR); José Bordonada-Collazo (16 years old, Puerto Rican, Manati, Puerto Rico) and Monti Montañez (19 years old,
Puerto Rican, Caguas, Puerto Rico / Now Laredo, TX) are young, polished, highly professional singing-and-dancing boy group. They released their first new music on their More Than Words EP that was released on December 18, 2007 exclusively in Target stores around the country where it completely sold through by mid-January.
People know and love this new MENUDO already. The new group came together on the MTV & MTV Tr3s reality series Making Menudo.
