As a Latino growing up in Spanish harlem, it's not easy trying not to be hot-headed.

I never rode a motorcycle before CHiPs.

I always loved Ponch, man. It was so much fun to be him, to put on my duds and get on that bike and bust the bad guys and help out the kids. And get the babes.

Top Model' is pretty good, because it gives these girls an opportunity to chase their passion and possibly get a contract.

I like working with an actor who doesn't do the oneupmanship. One who has no trick and gives a true, honest performance.

My grandfather taught me generosity. He sold snow cones in Harlem. I went with him at 5 and he let me hand out the change and snow cones. I learned a lot in the couple of years that we did that.

Respect other people regardless of the level they are at... or the level you are at. When you hand out respect, you get it back.
