My Name Isn't Carlos...Wait It Is.

When Latino's are in the forefront of the media or reality TV shows, mainstream media turns us into stereotypical Latinos. America's Got Talent did just that...smh. Here we have Carlos Aponte, 24, from Puerto Rico. For some strange reason, the producers but the Macarena as his "intro" music and what's worst is host Nick Cannon butchering his apellido.

Señor Aponte had trouble speaking English and you could tell the audience was talking trash. Little did they know he would pull a Susan Boyle on the world. So kudos Carlos and show the world how different we can be.

P.S. Thanks to V. Ramos for Tweeting about this.

People need to stop underestimating us!
