He’s from the Bronx, New York, though he now lives in Dutchess County, NY. “We all have our own styles,” he says, “and my style is R&B.” Like the others, he was a talent-show star: “I started singing around the age of six. I just did it as a hobby up until about seventh grade, where I did my first talent show, then I started to love performing, so I did more talent shows and more talent shows. Eventually my aunt came to me and told me about the auditions for Menudo.” Viewers watched his skills grow under the training they received. “Honestly, before the competition,” he says, “I never danced before. So the whole dancing and choreography thing was a learning experience.” His vocal powers grew steadily under David Coury’s intense, at times intimidating tutelage, while a TV audience watched: “Our ranges have increased, like, amazingly,” he says. “I can hit low notes that I have never been able to hit before.”
Menudo seperated, all doing their own things, while Chris and Jose joined former NLT band member JJ, also known as Justin, and newcomer AG in a super group former by Johnny Wright called One Call. "It’s funny how one call can change your whole life.” remarked Chris. The group tour with Britney Spears and opened up for her.
