Bochinche refers to “gossip”. In this sense, we use it to mention HOLA members or Friends of HOLA who are getting acting, performance or similarly artistic gigs and/or recognition in the media. The names of HOLA members and Friends of HOLA are listed below in boldface. To see what other HOLA members are doing currently, click here.
Robert Almonte, shown at right, was featured in the Héctor Luis Sin Censura blog (written by Héctor Luis Rivera), where his co-starring in the sketch comedy show "Locos y Contentos" (Estrella TV) was mentioned. Almonte has a few film projects in various forms of production. They include See You Soon (written by Danilo Arroyo, Jensson Cruz and Eddy Jiménez and directed by Arroyo), which also stars Kiki Meléndez (see below) and Ayanery Reyes; Un delincuente en Nueva York (written and directed by Rafael Marín), which also stars Meléndez; and Dos Adios (written and directed by Víctor Yanik).
