CHAMO TIME
By Andrew Moreno
Moreno: Tell me about some of your film experience?
Sanchez: Well, there are a few. I’ll tell you about my first: I was in New York looking at
the backstage newspaper audition news and saw that they were looking for salsa
dancers for a film! So, I went to the audition and met the one partner that was perfect
for me in the waiting room. When we went into the audition room we had already worked
out a combination that they could not do without. Long story short, I met the best dance
partner and booked the movie! That’s Center Stage and that’s how I got into film.
Moreno: What projects are you currently working on that your fans can expect
to see at a later date?
Sanchez: Many! Let’s see; you can see me next at the premier of 20th Century Fox’s
“Bachelor Party 2” A re-make of the 80’s Tom Hanks “Bachelor Party” and a killer 3
minute a day web-episode called “I Love Stevie” which is a contemporary “I Love Lucy”
staring Stevie Ryan that will feature me as “Ricky” but as a closeted gay performer.
Moreno: Viewers got the chance to know you as Chamo on I Love New York, is
Chamo like Mauricio?
Sanchez: While there are similarities, Chamo is all about perfection in his demeanor,
which I am not. He seeks and wants things to be exactly a certain way and works hard to
deliver perfection. I think there is a little Chamo in everyone.
Moreno: How did you end up as New York’s assistant on the show?
Sanchez: I was at the right time and place. They originally wanted an Asian male
assistant but when they met me, well, they uncovered what they really wanted – Chamo!
Moreno: This will be interesting, what was your take on the guys in the house,
since you were not a contestant but more of an observer?
Sanchez: They were all crazy! I tried to understand them, but they demonstrated without
any help from me that they were just nuts! Right?
Moreno: How did it feel from one day going to auditions to being on one VH1’s
highest rated TV shows?
Sanchez: It’s like going from being a junior in high school to being a senior. You are now
suddenly popular, people recognize you and get all excited that you really do exist. It’s
very flattering but equally intimidating.
Sanchez: Well, we liked to spy on the guys and then gossip about them from New York’s
master bedroom.
Moreno: Now the question that everyone wants to know: Why are you not on
season II? Your fans miss you!
Sanchez: First of all: I miss you too! As you can tell, New York is one busy lady and has
lots for me to do. For this season, she didn’t want me to have to deal with her men
hitting on me for info and favors like last season. She felt bad as did her mom. So, we
decided I would focus on other matters like my own career which I am totally enjoying at
the moment! So stay tuned!

- As Season II of I Love New York continues, we
cannot help but wonder what happended to
Chamo (New York's assistant)? Many of our
readers asked us to investigate, and that's
exactly what we did. We contacted Chamo
(Mauricio Sanchez) to see what he's been up to.
Sanchez has been busy making films and working
on his entertainment career.
- Moreno: Tell me about life before I love New
York. What were you doing?
- Sanchez: Like everyone in Hollywood, I was
taking acting classes, doing my YouTube videos,
auditioning and looking forward to the next
opportunity.
Moreno: Tell me about some of your film experience?
Sanchez: Well, there are a few. I’ll tell you about my first: I was in New York looking at
the backstage newspaper audition news and saw that they were looking for salsa

- Moreno: What made you laugh
while you were on the show?
- Sanchez: New York does not hold
back anything – when she gets
going she will say the most
outrageously funny things.
- Moreno: Tell us about an
experience you had with Ms.
New York that did not make it on
TV.
Sanchez: Well, we liked to spy on the guys and then gossip about them from New York’s
master bedroom.
Moreno: Now the question that everyone wants to know: Why are you not on
season II? Your fans miss you!

TELLS IT LIKE IT IS
I actually talked to Tango before
the reunion show. From what I
understand, it was a last minute
decision to call of the relationship.
But I actually thought it was
funny as hell.
