Rudy Mancuso steps out on stage with De La Ghetto and Angela Aguilar to present the Best New Artist award during the 2019 Latin GRAMMY Awards held at MGM Grand Garden Arena on Thursday night (November 14) in Las Vegas.
Just a few days earlier, the 27-year-old musician and creator was spotted at the official gift lounge, trying out some of the cool products.
The venue was actually transformed into the Land of the Dead with special pre-show activities including a massive interactive ofrenda, where attendees could add names and notes to the altar for loved ones who have passed on.
Fans also came out in amazing Day of the Dead costumes inspired by the Mexican tradition and movie.
Rudy Mancuso dances to the beat of his own drum in his hilarious new music video for “I Think I’m Cool”.
In the visual, Rudy sings about the social insecurities and how he tries to overcome them by creating a “cool” facade.
The track is the first single from the upcoming debut comedy album, a project combining his prowess as a musician and creator.
“I had a blast making, ‘I Think I’m Cool.’ I’ve always tried to combine music and comedy in unique ways, and this track seemed like a perfect opportunity to do exactly that,” Rudy shared about the track and video. “It doesn’t take itself seriously, but the groove certainly does.”
He adds, “Beneath the silliness, I wanted to make sure that a simple underlying message was apparent: rather than suppress them, embrace your insecurities and vulnerabilities. There is a real window for comedy music and I’m eager to continue writing.”
Earlier in the week, Maia wore a summery dress while attending the 2019 Teen Choice Awards, where she presented an award alongside her The Last Summer co-star KJ Apa.
Maia was also nominated for multiple awards including Choice Summer Movie Actress in The Last Summer and Choice Drama TV Actress for Good Trouble. Unfortunately, Maia did not take home any surf boards this year.
Maia Mitchell and her longtime boyfriend, and entertainer Rudy Mancuso are set to star together in Little Black Mirror, a spinoff of shorts in the vein of Black Mirror.
There will be three “mini-stories,” aimed at Spanish-speaking audiences, Variety reports. The episodes will be released on YouTube on May 26th, June 2nd and June 6th, on the Netflix América Latina channel. Rudy directed and scored all of them.
