Mario Lopez: An American Actor with Mexican Roots
Mario Lopez, an American actor with Mexican roots, was born on October 10, 1973, in San Diego, California, USA. Known for his role as Albert Clifford in 'Saved By The Bell', Lopez is a versatile individual who constantly seeks new challenges and opportunities in various fields.
A Multifaceted Career
Lopez has made a name for himself in Hollywood and shows no signs of slowing down. He has dabbled in acting, hosting, producing, and writing. Recently, he became the host of the widely broadcasted daily show 'EXTRA', but this does not mean he will be leaving his current project, 'America's Best Dance Crew', which currently holds the highest ratings on MTV. In this show, 12 dance crews compete for the title of the best dance crew in the country.
A Talented Dancer
Lopez's passion for dance led him to participate in the third season of 'Dancing with the Stars', where he made it to the finals. Additionally, he is set to return to the set of 'Nip/Tuck', a television show on the F/X network, where he has already gained recognition from fans.
Beyond the Entertainment Industry
Lopez's interests extend beyond the realm of the film industry. He is also a fervent sports enthusiast, particularly in the sport of boxing. His love for the sport eventually led him to commentate on boxing matches, which were widely televised across the country.
A Successful Broadway Debut
In the past, Lopez showcased his talents on Broadway, playing the role of Zach in the popular musical 'A CHORUS LINE'. This production became one of the longest-running Broadway shows of modern times. Afterward, Lopez returned to Hollywood, but this time behind the camera, directing a film for 'Lifetime' and serving as an executive director for an undisclosed project on ABC Family.
Author and Actor
Lopez recently combined his passion for sports and commercial projects by writing the book 'Knockout Fitness', which became a bestseller in the fitness guide genre. The book caters to individuals of all ages and genders who are eager to develop their physical fitness. He plans to continue writing and has now turned his attention to children's literature, co-writing the book 'Mud Tacos' with his sister Marissa. Despite his various commitments, Lopez manages to find time for acting. He starred in the highly successful ABC Family project 'Holiday in Handcuffs' and later appeared in the highest-rated project on the Oxygen Network, 'Maneater'.
A Recognizable Television Actor
Lopez's roles as Albert Clifford in the television series 'Saved by the Bell' (NBC) and Officer Bobby Cruz in 'Pacific Blue' (USA Network) have made him one of the most recognizable actors on television.
