Guanaco actor stars in new mun2 show
Before I visited Miami and spent time with Telemundo, I had heard of the new show on mun2 called RPM Miami. I knew it had something to do with racing cars, and since that didn’t really interest me, I didn’t look into it any further.
During my time with Telemundo I learned that one of the stars of the show, actor Adrian Bellani, is half Salvadoran. Born in Miami and raised in San Salvador, Bellani plays the character Alejandro who is a soldier returning home from a tour in Iraq. He discovers that his father is missing and while trying to find out what happened to him, gets mixed up in the world of Miami street racing.
Two other things that I liked – First, the characters on the show are all bilingual and the show is a mix of both Spanish and English. And second, RPM Miami is shot on location in Miami.
I had the opportunity to meet some of the stars and of course, my question was, “Which one of you is the guanaco?” … Well, they totally misunderstood me. They thought I was saying “El Guajo” – (which is the name of the antagonist on RPM Miami.) Too funny…Chécalo!
RPM Miami premieres Sunday May 1 @ 10p/9C on mun2.
Disclosure: I went to Miami at the invitation of Telemundo. All opinions are my own.

So many stars!! Lindo estar en la alfombra roja, my friend…
I’ll post soon with many more photos. Hopefully you’ll recognize some famous faces!
I think he thought you were calling him a “guanajo!” ha, ha!!! Love it!
OMG Carrie – me muero! LOL… I can’t imagine what they must have thought of me *face palm*
So cool, your interview. I would have been way too nervous and probably spoken in French or something. The show looks good, too!
Watched it last night, Susan – definitely worth checking out. I loved the different accents in Spanish – it isn’t sanitized to neutral accents – everyone seems to just speak the way they speak and it’s totally bilingual.
