    KoKo_Reign

    HE'S A CUTIE


    blkmagic659

    I don't like the people this season. But I will watch because of Mario. and MTO his career is not going down the toilet. if anything it will push his career foward.


    sexy_cece

    I blame Matthew Knowles, he is the one in charge of this child's carrer and so its no surprise its goin down the drain while Beyonce's carrer keeps getting bigger and bigger along w/her ego..Poor Mario another Kelly Rowland?? These 2 need to change managers coz it just aint workin


    1MoreThing

    I am going to watch just to check out JASON TAYLOR


    Jamaica2raahtid

    OK why is this so. Mario need to pick himself. U can do it baby.


    Honey_Dip08

    he's ok...but if this is true cant wait to see it...


    Florida_Chick

    Mario is a cutie!!! I CAN HEAR YOUR HEEEAARRRRRTTTT, CRYING OUT FOR MEEEEEE....


    2thick4u

    I hope so...

    sanass

    I think its a good luck for Mario, its not like ClIVE DAVIS is doing anything for him.

    I'll be watching you Mario


    mightyc42

    @***

    he aint cute. i can see his brain when i look up his nose lol.

    on the other hand, i seriously doubt he will be one of the dancers. he just had a hit single. so he has no reason to act like a d-list has been


    CarolinaCandee

    Atleast he's getting money. Po' thang....*smh*


    HugeUglyGirl

    What I like about Mario is that he is taking his time in the industry. Not gettin all stressed out about Billboard and what yall think, but building a lasting career in entertainment. When the rest of the 18 - 21 crew will be drawing from their quickly exhausting trust funds, Mario will still be out there taking his time, gettin paid in the industry.


    MauriceD

    I would too...Have you seen the female dancing partners on that show...


    xugarbush-nyc

    is this story even true?...I'll have to get the facts str8 on other much more reliable sources, I know that for a fact!...lol...Isn't his career doing ok now?...anyways..oh well...& wow, my baby cristian de la funte is going to appear this season...hot ***!..."soy toda tuya papi lindo..muah!



    CarolinaGirl

    BOO!!


    kimberlyfbaby

    kick rocks mto..dancing with the stars is a good look for his career. if people see him on it, they might go out & buy his cd, boosting sales. also, he'll get tons of publicity by appearing on morning shows and talk shows, and not to mention all the articles that will b written on the show. it's getting his name out there to a broader audience! good move mario! oh yea p.s. his new cd is like dat forreal.


    kimberlyfbaby

    ABC announced the celebrity lineup for next month's sixth cycle of Dancing With the Stars. The contestants will include: actress-model Shannon Elizabeth (American Pie, Love Actually); Steve Guttenberg; Priscilla Presley; radio jock-comedian Adam Carolloa; actress Marlee Matlin (Children of a Lesser God); tennis champ Monica Seles; illusionist Penn Jillette; R&B singer Mario; this year's NFL defensive player of the year, the Miami Dolphins' Jason Taylor; Tony Award-winner Marissa Jaret Winokur (Hairspray); Olympic gold medalist figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi; and Chilean actor Cristian de la Fuente (CSI: Miami). Dancing returns on March 17 at 9 p.m. for the first of a two-*** premiere. Tom Bergeron and Samantha Harris will host and Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli, and Carrie Ann Inaba will judge.

    from entertainment weekly...a more credible source lol.


    ModelJeff

    What happens if he dosent win..bad career move


    Bishop_Tee

    *** Mario will maybe make the show betta!

    Every one is doing reality right about now..or at least it seems that way..


    crisluda83

    Who cares! HE IS MARIO!


    travieboo7

    HE TRYiiNG TO GET SOME EXTRA CASH...ii LOVE HiiS NEW SONG "DO RiiGHT"...iiT'S THE BOMB


    MochaDLight

    Wow why would he do that foreal. That doesn't make any sense!


    kaypa

    DANG MARIO....I STILL LIKE YOUR MUSIC! DONT DO IT!!!!!!!!!


    bahababe7

    I love Mario...wish he was into black chicks....?


    datgurlcansing

    AWW MAN WHY WOULD HE DO THAT? LOL

    Add my music page and show ya girl some love ;)


    notheruser

    The answer is obviously no, he has no hit song out there. He was a one-hit wonder.


    shayzee

    tiz iz not a good look.a DOWNGRADE. LUVS IT


    get_cha_facts_str8

    Jason Taylor IS NOT the 2007 NFL Defensive Player of the year. It's Bob Sanders who plays for the Colts...who can definitely get it


    boyshorts28

    @kimberlyfbaby thanks for that. Mario is a good singer and this will only boost his career. *** up MTO yall getting on my nerves.



    EBZ01

    Dancing with the stars seems to have upgraded some people's careers and um it didn't hurt Floyd Mayweather's so....yeah.


    HardCore

    I guess he has to do something to bring some money in 'cause his singing sure ain't doing it.


    CrystalBlue

    mel b did it why not!


    TimeHater

    *** who is handling his career?! Bad career move Bruh.


    money1177

    stop hating mto that's a good look for mario


    Strwbrymuffin

    I dont know mario isn't really up there is he?? HE's not up there with usher and omarion and them maybe this will bust his career. I think i've heard that his concerts weren't selling good. So maybe this will open some doors to white america land for him.


    who_cares

    dude what are you waiting on to FIRE your management team ????? that's the problem cause his voice is beautiful just has idiots running his career. Next time check the history of other artist with the same management team!!!!

    BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME MARIO


    1_World_1_Man

    He a one hit WONDER.


    brwnsuga504

    i beg 2 differ, he's 2 hott to have his career go down the drain, i freakin luv him!!!


    K2TheJ

    Hell, he just might win!


    ThickLikeGumbo

    MTO, leave Mario alone. His CD "GO" is the ***. And, I just heard the Crying Out For Me remix with Busta Rhymes & Lil Wayne--that joint is fire.

    ABC always tries to get younger celebrities to draw in a younger audience


    5050

    FLORIDA CHICK GO GET A NOSEJOB YOU LOOK LIKE A RAT. MARIO IS FUGLY AND ANNOYING.


    blksweat3121

    THAT IS MEAN MTO. HIS TRACK "CRYING OUT 4 ME" IS THE BUSINESS. STOP TRYING TO DOWN PEEPS TRYIN TO HUSTLE

    SEXY-CHRISSY40

    GOOD FOR HIM, I LIKE MARIO, HE WILL BE JUST FINE!


    bats111

    MTO need to check out some past so called losers from that show.Because Nick Lashay's brother who is a nobody was on the first season & winner & currently is the host for a dance show competion with Carrie Ann & that other dude . Joey Fatone also is now the the host of a new lyric show.And it is very good . Now Marie & brother Donnie both getting new life from the show & he wasn't even on it Now he is ahost on ENT. ***. SO IF ANYTHING IT WILL HELP HIM,NOT THAT HE NEEDS IT .



    merva320

    WELL I THINK PEOPLE ARE AFRAID TO TAKE RISKS SOMETIMES. HE NOT IN THE NEWS FOR SOMETHING NEGATIVE SO ANYTHING GOOD IS A POSTIVE. HOPE HE DOES WELL.


    vidabida

    Mario Winans would have been a better fit. That's who I actually thought it was before I clicked in.

    What next for him...Walmart commercials


    strongforu

    I ain't mad at Mario. With the state of R&B record sales at an all-time low, a brothers got to make money somehow. Dancing with the Stars beats sitting at a *** desk 8-10 hours a day!!! Trust me.


    eastside

    I susually dont agree with MTo, but they right about this situation!


    eastside

    I apologize for the incorrect spelling.


    HugeUglyGirl

    I never watched that show EVER, but since mah baby mario on dere. I'mma check it out and hope he put on some tite samba pants so I can check out a few "things" if you know what I mean. lol!


    WineDine69

    With them nostrils, you better keep that negro FAAAR away from your powder cocaine!

    That nucca could snort a line as thick as a hotdog with NOOO problem!


    nellj

    Mario is a really good artist who does not get his due. His music had really matured since 2002. I am one who listens to nothing but Soul R&B and I really anticipated his album release. DWTS will definitely open up a new market for his music and I feel it is a wise decision on the part of his management. There are a lot of wack artist his age that are putting garbage on the airwaves, and I give him props on taking his time with his music. It's always the obscure artist who are the best (Will Downing, Raheem Devaughn, Rachel Ferrell, etc.)


    tybaby21

    LEAVE MY COUSIN ALONE AND YES I DID SAY COUSIN!!! TRY ME!!! BEFORE U GET DEALT WITH!!


    Thickness

    His last song was cool... he just needs to find someone to continue to write good songs for him.


    MissDallasTxUSA

    I thought it was the other Mario that played on Saved by the Bell? And if it is this Mario then I think the other dancers have their work cut out for them coz he can go!


    sticks40

    i think its a good start to add more to his resume and to get a little more paid training and exposure. chris brown has all the attention at this time.


    RedDragon

    Yeah he needs to just build a lasting career. Cause all these fly by *** gonna be gone by next year.


    wtflmao

    Mario is so cute......I wanna breast feed him. Yall make sure you VOTE for Mario.


    sticks40

    thats a cool pic, r those ur real titties.



    Alona12

    i fill bad for him because nobaody buys his music any more!


    MONIQUEP

    WOW LAST SEASON HAD BIG NAMES THAT I ACTUALLY KNEW THIS NEW CAST I ONLY KNOW MARIO. ITS GONNA SUCK PRETTY BADLY LOL.


    sexe757

    His career is going fine. Yall just hatin. The show will win him more FAME and success. That young man has been thru so much in his life............give him some RESPECT! He could be locked up or on the corner like many of our black men.


    wtflmao

    100% real. 64Z


    cali-gurl07

    career goes further down the toilet?? wtf?? he's doing great!! he's such a cutie to me..MTO please stop hating on this young man!!!


    kimberlyfbaby

    the article they got on yahoo is soo cruel..they had mario and some other guy from the cast as people you should google..basically saying that they're no1's! wtf! i love me some mario!


    mabeline

    DWTS gets more and more lame each season & by the looks of the participants this year the saga continues. At least they got JT in there as some eye candy.


    Growing

    I've always thought "Dancing with the Stars" was for more seasoned people in the entertainment industry (in other words, "has beens"). However, if Mario is on the show, I'll probably watch. You never know -- he may have inked a deal with the network to attract a younger, hipper audience. If so, and he starts a new trend in those types of reality shows, then good for him! I love to see a person grow.


    Smiley5

    Say it aint so Marion; that *** is for people who can make a hit to save their lives. Nothing but washed up has-beens go on Dances with the Stars. Don’t do it to yourself!!!

    ~~~~~/~~~~~/~~~~~/~~~~~/~~~~~ ALWAYS SAY IT WITH A SMILE!!!


    Smiley5

    Oops, I meant Mario, LOL!!!

    ~~~~~//~~~~~//~~~~~//~~~~~//~~~~~ ALWAYS SAY IT WITH A SMILE!!!


    sharies12

    luv_my_lou

    luv_my_lou

    and he is soooooo SEXY!!!


    DreamBigN08

    MTO, ya'll are sooooooo wack! definitely got the wrong title for this article. Mario's career is going just fine right now.


    Caramelhoneys

    Mario..get your acting game on..leave the bubble-gum sugar-pop r&b alone...dont front, you'll make mad paper in the acting biz...with less headaches...'nuff said dre of caramelhoneys.com

    pinkdate

    here is a site for u all :

    AskSomebody

    Good luck!


    IHATEMTO

    Let me use my brain (since MTO doesn't have one) and give ya'll a clue as to why my boy Mario would choose to do this. First of all it's called EXPOSURE! Think of all the people who will be watching that show that don't know who he is ... and he already has hit songs out there... Hello ... thats means more money!!! There will be more artists after him that will use that avenue to promote themselves... it's a hidden agenda... like the artists that get booked to perform for american idol... think about the viewers and it brings in more than just pocket change... MTO IS really stupid for trying to clown MARIO for this... I'd like to see the EDITOR of this website on that show... if he dares to show his face (if his *** can really dance anyway)... all he has to say is MEDIATAKEOUT.com... and the hits on this website would triple....


    KingRamses2U

    ***! He already a has-been?


    jaylap83

    ***, say it ain't so Mario!!!!


    qtpiebe90

    he has a very good career his cd's are always good white people just dont give his albums that much play but he is moving up


    Mzansi4Veja

    What if he inhales everyone as he will panting from the dancing? mario that is bad choice on your ugly-a-s-s self part! now you will have to explain why you inhaled everyone on national TV, L.o.L


    D4rumCALI

    He's broadening his horizons. He gets fans on that show, he'll have more fans listening to his music...maybe... Either way, not a bad move.
