Gerardo -- Still Rico Enough for Mr. Chow

Posted Sep 4th 2008 1:00PM by TMZ Staff

His one and only hit was waaaay back in 1991, but Rico Suave's got the bones to splurge on food. The do-rag and the extensions... not so much.

The once self-proclaimed "gigolo" was talkin' Obama outside Mr. Chow last night -- just what Barack wants, a ringing endorsement from the guy who touted his "addiction ... to the female species" and bragged about consuming them in a manner that was "raw like sushi."

Suave.

3. This is not wacky or weird in the least. Gerardo seems like a very nice guy who actually leads a normal life. He didn't go all "Vanilla Ice" on us or the camera man talking about how cool and important he is. Very humble. God bless him.

4. He now woks behind the scenes. He is responsible for Enrique Igelsias's (not sure of spelling) English cross over album

5. At least he's eloquent, and polite. Seems like a totally normal dude with some cash in pocket who got cornered by some weirdo with a camera who wanted to ask stupid questions.

6. Ok TMZ you're trying sooo hard to make everyone look like a douchebag. Gerardo, unfortunately, came out looking like a class act. He's well spoken, polite and subdued. So who looks like the douche now?

7. Yeah, it was funny when he had that talk-show and got clobbered by a chair and wore tape on his nose for weeks!

12. So please don't judge a book by its cover
There's more to being a latin lover
You got to know how to deal with a woman
That won't let go
The price you pay for being a gigolo

There's not a woman that can handle
A man like me
That's why I juggle two or three
I ain't one to commit, you can omit that bit
You pop the question that's it

14. I didn't see a Help Wanted sign in Mr. Chow's window, Gerardo must have a decent agent these days.

Posted at 7:32PM on Sep 4th 2008 by letch

15. Gerardo is now an A&R executive at Interscope Records and was responsible for bringing Julio Iglesias to the United States and signing southern rapper Bubba Sparxxx .

C'mon TMZ, do some research, there's this site called "Google".
Try it some time.
