Friday, February 29, 2008
Guess who was spotted checking in at the Los Angeles International Airport on Thursday afternoon? Hint: He just signed up to be on a Emmy nominated reality show…

It’s Mario! The R&B singer/actor is currently getting ready for Season 6 of Dancing With The Stars, coming on March 17th.

I think he looks gay and the worst part about it is that he’s probably straight.

I’m not really a Mario person, but he looks tastey.
@ 21 his hand is like that cos he bites his fingers (personal opinion) like omar epps in love and basketball

Mario just seems different from these other little pop kids. He’s become a grown man and his music caters to his own age group as opposed to Omarion or CB. Not to mention his voice is impeccable.
Bet you’ll never see this cat in some pastel-colored skinny jeans!

Aww so cute & chessy. I’m really proud of Mario for doing this show, showing a young black male who came from a rough background doing something totally opposite of what many would expect…May GOD Bless, Congrats & Good luck Mario!!!!

Some of you Bama’s on here are SO irrelevant…. Why the speculation? My Point we ARE reading about HIM and NOT you…..You Bitches kill me with this Gay Shit…PLEASE find another tactic you ignorant-Ghetto-IDIOTS…

LOL he does look like Dr. Ian. LOL
Why are his shoes tied tight like that.
I had no clue he was going to be on Dancing With the Stars. Hell I wouldn’t have a clue of what comes on after Jeporady. I can’t keep my eyes open past 8. I need a hobby. SMH
I like how he’s rock’n that “scarf”.

I’m sorry, why does he look gay again? Oh, I forgot:
- A grown man’s pants aren’t supposed to fit well enough to stay above his ass on their own. If he’s Black, that is.
- A man isn’t supposed to be reasonable enough to know that a Louis Vuitton bookbag is just a bookbag, and that the only reason anyone thinks the Louis Vuitton signature is synonymous with only women’s accessories and clothing is because all they ever knew before their sisters or girlfriends visited the African or Korean on the corner was Coogi and Ecko. If he’s Black, that is.
- A man - and this is absolutely critical to success - is not, under any cirumstances, supposed to smile in public, UNLESS accompanied by the thickest, most scantily-clad video ho he can find, since then (AND ONLY THEN) will his masculinity and heterosexuality (oh I forgot too, those are the same thing, right? No need to list them separately. Silly ME!) be clearly defined and confirmed enough to ensure the safety and security of all manhood in the vicinity. IF he’s Black, that is.
Amazing, the kind of doctrine you can derive from a scholar who would call himself HOOD_SHIT. Reviewing my notes from Dr. _SHIT’s class, I realize now that it has been my experience - growing up on the Westside (BE DA BESTSIIIIIIDE!! lol) of Atlanta and then entering a TOTALLY different environment by going to college about 15 minutes down the street - that what is good for the goose is in fact often very bad for the gander. That is to say, skinny jeans, big scarfs, piercings, boots, mohawks, studded belts, and the like are accepted (sometimes EXPECTED, depending on the individual in question) of white boys, cause they’re just “rockers” then. But let a Black man do it. He must..MUST..be gay!!
I get it now, Dr. _SHIT. I appreciate that in your class, you teach material that actually carries real life applications. More professors should follow your lead.

oh lord that boy is SO fine and!
I appreciate his grown and sexy look he is doing his thing
he is actually a REAL R&B singer not a POP STAR LIKE CHRIS BROWN
He needs to get the recognition he deserves
Oh and I love how hes gay because he is carrying a louis napsack whereas “gangsters” and more “masculine” black men do it they are carrying their keys by the three and all sorts of manly cool things so its totally justifyed…..am i right?
big ups to #41 you speak that true shit

#12, a bama is somebody that can’t dress and also somebody that does lame things. Don’t listen to #16, even though you can find alot of bamas in the country, no offense.

how can you not love a face this cute and the boi is so humble he is what music has needed for a long while, a genuinely good artist who can actually sang not sing SANG ! He is one of the few artists that even with limited promotion I will hunt down a release date for any of his works.

I love Mario, as someone said, “he does his own thang!” He’s so grounded, happy-go-lucky, & talented. Not too many other singers/celebs are as worthy of the lifestyle he leads.

Somebody else mentioned it, but his hand looked burned from the side. Another look at a different picture and it’s a musical note tatto.

As much as I try to refrain from having __________ thoughts about this young man,I can’t help it! He’s so handsome to me. I feel bad because I remember when he was singing “Just a Friend-2002″ and now he’s a man. I will watch this season of DWTS just for him. In the past I couldn’t make it past a but few minutes of one show,but I will watch for sure this season.
I really do admire him for being so open with his life with the show he and his mother did on MTV.
