So if you haven’t figured out, I can’t get enough of Making the Band 3. And keeping true to my bias opinions on who would’ve made a great group, I’m all giddy because I got contact with Francesca, the muy caliente Puerto Rican. As she’s probably most remembered for saying, “What a waste of time”, we’re here to set the record straight and not to mention post some really hot pics of her too.

*Just a thought…so Francesca is hot and from Puerto Rico and Jackie Guerrido is hot and from Puerto Rico. Seriously, is Puerto Rico an oasis of hot women?!?!?

When did you first realize, “Damn, I CAN SING…and DANCE…and I’M HOT TOO!?

Well I have to say that my mom always put me in ballet and jazz classes since I was 3 years old….and during my high school years I always was in all the talents shows and teaching all my friends steps. I’ve been really active all my life when it comes to performing or anything that has to do with sports, singing, and dancing…I LOVE ALL OF THAT! JEJE

I imagine you get your inspiration from somewhere. Do you have a certain vocalist/performer you use as a role model?

OMG! When I was just a baby, I mean, like 3/4 years old my mother used to record me dancing like Michael Jackson; I really have to say that he’s my role model and I’ve been following his steps over the years and I have to say that I can’t die and not have the opportunity to meet him.

What were your expectations going into Making the Band 3? Didn’t you see Making the Band 2 with “Da Band???!?! Even the original Making the Band with “O-Town?!?! We know how those stories ended!!!

My expectations were huge (and that’s) exactly what happened. I didn’t see all the show (for Da Band) but I had the chance to meet them here in Puerto Rico when we had a rappers convention and they seemed not too serious when it comes to performing and knowing that this was their job with the exception of 3 members, otherwise I have to say that both bands had great talent but I mean sometimes either it is you or your company that don’t put all their effort to make it real big, but if I were them I would not stop till I make it cause one thing about this career is perseverance.

I know you’ve probably heard it many times but I gotta mention the final segment they showed of you on TV where you said it was all a waste of time and how Diddy will have to go to Jupiter to find what he wants…I love how you spoke your mind. Do people ask you why you said that knowing that it was going to be on TV or are people giving you props for keepin’ it real like that? Do you still feel that it was a waste of time???!

I have to say that all these reality shows edit everything to make the show more interesting but the truth is…are u ready? Na just kidding… when I said what a waste of time I referred to when they sent us back home for 4 months and then come back for 2 days and there’s no band. I was like, “GREAT.” You know because I thought he had a group right there; we just needed a little professional work. And when I said “JUPITER”, I said it in a funny way. I used my accent really strong in that part and what I referred to in that part, which clearly they erased, was that is very hard that somebody in a second, like Puff, will sing like Beyonce and dance like Britney because all these great artists spend all day training and getting better. But no, Diddy wants somebody, that boom, right there. But I mean he is the man and we all know how successful he is so I’m cool, I support him. When people stop me in the streets they usually give me props for those last comments…and I have to say that Making The Band 3 was the best experience that I’ve had in my life .

So what have you been doing since the season finale aired back in May? Have you been consistently performing or in the studio? Making appearances? Bumming around?!!?

Thanks to this show I had alot of great offers and I’ve been working on my album with hot producers, also I’ve been doing live appearances and some exclusive videos and commercials. I’ve also been going to the gym everyday, taking singing lessons, and dance lessons…ohhh almost forgot I’m producing an event for dancers bringing some of the hottest choreographers here in Puerto Rico that’s gonna be on November 20th and also promoting a group call FLOW FELLAS… That’s pretty much it.

From your experience, what did you learn from being around Diddy and his team that you have taken into your current projects and your everyday life?

I’ve learned to be a real perfectionist with everything that has to do with the people that work with me and to be really dedicated and passionate about my work and what I want to become.
