The common denominator between the Menéndez brothers and one Menudo band member is a grievous one.
In 1996, Lyle and Erik Menéndez were sentenced to life in prison for the murder of their parents, José and Kitty Menéndez. Throughout the sensationalized televised trial, the Beverly Hills brothers alleged that their father Jose had subjected them to years of sexual abuse, which motivated the murders. The prosecution maintained a firm argument that the boys killed José and Kitty for mere financial gain.
Now, three decades later, Peacock’s new three-part docuseries “Menéndez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed” reveals Roy Rosselló’s corroborating claim that he was also sexually abused by the former RCA executive and father of the Menéndez brothers José Menendez.

Two sensational stories collide in Menendez + Menudo: Boys Betrayed, a new three-part documentary series airing on Peacock. One helped bring the culture into the era of nonstop TV crime and jurisprudence coverage: the grisly 1989 murder of Jose and Kitty Menendez by their sons, Erik and Lyle. The other involves the former Puerto Rican boy band sensation Menudo, and longstanding accusations of sexual abuse against the group’s Svengali and manager, Edgardo Díaz. The Menendez brothers, currently serving life in prison, have always maintained that their father raped them from the time they were small children.

Before there was New Kids on the Block and New Edition, Latin boy band Menudo was dominating the global stage with its bubble-gum pop sound and youthful vibrancy. Behind the scenes, however, everything was not as perfect as it seemed.
In the HBO Max documentary Menudo: Forever Young, filmmakers Angel Manuel Soto and Kristofer Ríos chronicle the rise and fall of the group — from cementing the band’s place in pop culture history to revealing never-before-heard allegations of abuse against founder Edgardo Diaz by various members.
More than 40 members of Menudo participated in the four-part doc, all of who were pre-teens or teens when they joined and eventually replaced after they hit puberty. With their parents’ permission — which included signing over parental rights to Diaz — the boys set off in search of fortune and fame with varying results.
“What we realized going into this is that Menudo is iconic, not just for Puerto Ricans, but for the LatinX community as a whole. And we knew it was gonna be really tricky to both celebrate, but also reveal these things that people had known but didn’t really dig into,” Rios said during a panel discussion at Deadline’s Contenders Television: Documentary + Unscripted. “The foundational principle for us was that both of these things can be true.”
He added: “This can be a band that is so near and dear to us in our hearts, but some ugly things can happen behind the scenes. And that’s worth exploring because we felt we really needed to understand the price these boys, now men, paid.”

Allegations of physical, mental and sexual abuse had previously been made by former members against Diaz, and some of them played out in the media. Diaz has always maintained his innocence and has never faced charges in connection to those allegations.
The documentary has the most members of Menudo speaking out about their experiences to date.
“Their experiences haven’t always been bubble gum though it’s often portrayed as such, so it was important to us be delicate with their darkest moments. But also, we didn’t want to end on that note because since the ’90s the idea of Menudo disappeared or it was tarnished,” Soto said. “Thirty years later, these are the kids that we admired growing up and they’re still very much alive and doing great things. [We made this] with the idea of redemption and being able to to talk about past traumas and heal from it and grow in this constant process of deconstructing ourselves.
“We wanted to end it on the note of those kids are still out there, they still inspire us and their stories help us heal like many of them were able to do. It was a very collaborative healing process between us the filmmakers and the band.”

Mario Lopez and Menudo Productions are heading up a global talent search for a new Menudo, a revival of one of the biggest Latin boy bands of all time.
Auditions for talent between the ages of 12 and 16 will begin online this July, followed by live auditions in various cities starting in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on September 17. Lopez will spotlight weekly highlight videos on Menudo streaming platforms for fans to discover, comment, and share their favorite contestants. Entrants will be able to upload their video auditions to a Menudo audition app when Lopez announces the kickoff of the auditions in two weeks.
The project, dubbed Menudo: A New Beginning, comes 12 years after the Latin boy band disbanded. Menudo Productions purchased rights to the Menudo brand in 2016.

HBO Max will release Menudo: Forever Young, a new documentary about the Latin American boy band from filmmakers Angel Manuel Soto (Charm City Kings) and Kristofer Ríos (Havana Skate Days), on June 23. The premiere will follow the project’s debut at the 2022 Tribeca Festival on June 11.
Menudo was formed by producer Edgardo Diaz in 1977 with 5 original members: Ricky Melendez, brothers Carlos and Oscar Meléndez, and the Sallaberry brothers, Fernando and Nefty. The group changed members often mostly after the pre-teen and early teenage boys aged out around age 15 or 16. Two of its most famous members include Ricky Martin and Draco Rosa (as Robbi Rosa).
Diaz, who served as the band’s manager, was accused of sexual abuse by multiple members beginning in 1991. He denied the allegations that same year on El Show De Cristina, a popular talk show at the time hosted by Cristina Saralegui.

Elvis Costello doesn’t speak Spanish, but on at least one occasion, he’s dreamt in it.
Back in 2018, the television writer David Simon had reached out to him about transforming “This Year’s Girl,” the prickling cut from his pivotal 1978 LP This Year’s Model, into a duet for the second season of The Deuce. The thought of reworking a classic might have unnerved a less adventurous artist, but Costello, ever the shapeshifter, was intrigued.

On a chilly Wednesday in November in New York City, Catalina García and Santiago Prieto were mulling their future. The pair helped found Monsieur Perine, a group whose wide-ranging taste and delicate, hand-played songs have attracted a devoted following in Colombia and among the members of the Latin Recording Academy (5 nominations and a win). But there was still more to do.
“We need to grow, and it’s not the same to grow in Latin America as it is [to grow] in Europe and the U.S.,” García explained. “We want success in terms of mainstream shit,...

The “Access Hollywood” host is on board to executive produce “Menudo,” an hour-long competition show in development at Universal Television Alternative Studio. Named after the iconic band, the show will search for and build the next iteration of Menudo.

Formed in 1977 and disbanded in 2009, Menudo made a total of 35 albums which have sold a whopping 60 million copies worldwide. Their success also led to the release of two feature films and a TV series about them, as well as spawning a beauty pageant, dolls, trading cards,...

Puerto Rican rocker Draco Rosa has dropped a striking new version of his 2013 song, “Quiero Vivir.” It is his first release since his Latin Grammy-winning 2018 album, Monte Sagrado.
“Quiero Vivir” was inspired by the poem “Tengo Ojos,” by the Mexican poet Jaime Sabines. “La vida con dios, una copa de luz/Tu y yo mas allá, mas allá del amor,” sings Rosa, with a dusky timbre: “Life with God, a cup of light / You and I beyond, beyond love.” Rosa’s folk-rock cool is heightened by dramatic orchestral arrangements; yet beneath the grandiose production,...

MTV made a noble attempt at Latinx inclusion at this year’s VMAs; and “Thotiana,” the hit song by Blueface, made her way to Colombia and came back “Fariana.” In case you missed it, here are some highlights from this week in Latin music.

Intriguing synth grooves meet the dark poetry of a rock en español legend in new track “Dos Veces Al Día.” Featuring former Héroes del Silencio frontman Enrique Bunbury, it’s the first single off Volume One, the debut Ep by Wired Sessions, a.k.a. Chilean artist-producer Juan Covarrubias.
Amid an arsenal of oscillators, filters, samplers and mixers, Covarrubias’ star instrument, he says, is the modular synthesizer. “I love the instrument because is very unpredictable,” the producer tells Rolling Stone via email. In true Bunbury fashion, he says, “the production needed to have some darkness,...

This month marks 20 years since Ricky Martin dropped his self-titled, English-language LP — forever shifting the course of American pop music.
Released May 11th, 1999, Ricky Martin would sell nearly ten million copies worldwide within its first month. Its astronomical success was due in no small part to its single, “Livin’ La Vida Loca,” which was dropped earlier that March. Co-written with his fellow Menudo alum, Draco Rosa, as well as hitmaker Desmond Child, the salsa-rock fusion track would not just ascend to Number One on the Billboard Hot 100; but it would...

J Balvin, the Colombian reggaeton star, was nominated for more awards than any other artist at the Latin Grammys on Thursday. In two separate categories, Record of the Year and Best Urban Song, he was even nominated multiple times. He deserves the attention: Behind Ozuna, he’s the second most-watched singer on the planet (thanks to his mind-bogglingly large audience on YouTube), with an intuitive grasp of melody and an already-long list of eminently hummable hooks; his Vibras album was handsome and tightly knit, but also strong enough on a...

Draco Rosa’s first studio album in five years opens in some confusion, salted with dark humor. The singer is one of the biggest and most notorious stars in modern Latin music. But when he walks into “Hotel de los Encuentros,” he gets the cold shoulder at the registration desk. The voices in charge are barely human — women with the frosty, mechanical sensuality of Alexa, the virtual assistant in your Amazon Echo speaker. They get Rosa’s name wrong and almost send him away before handing over the key to “333” — a room and song that,...

“The more gratitude you have, the more powerful you will feel because you will eliminate fear,” muses Draco Rosa, born Robert Edward Rosa Suárez. Puerto Rican by way of New York, the 49-year-old musician has, in a way, has gone to hell and back, confessing to darker days in the past: times when he struggled with rejection, drug addiction; and when he battled and beat cancer, twice. Yet today, he’s currently enjoying the blessing of a second chance.

San Juan, March 20 (Ians/Efe) After a two-year battle against cancer, Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Draco Rosa launched Tuesday his new album "Vida" (Life) on which he teams up with 16 artists including Ricky Martin, Shakira and Alejandro Sanz.
