Who is Ray Reyes?
Ray Reyes is an American-born Puerto Rican singer who is a former member of Menudo. He was born in New York City and was raised in Levittown, Puerto Rico. His father, Rey Reyes, Sr., ran several successful business ventures. He became a member of Menudo in early 1983. Reyes came to substitute Xavier Serbia on the band, and joined the band right in the middle of Menudo's golden era. His younger brother, Raul Reyes, also participated as part of the chorus and was a strong candidate to replace his brother Ray.
Reyes amassed great popularity among Menudo fans, although he was known as the chubby one of the band. That nickname was started because, when he joined Menudo, Edgardo Diaz put him on a strict diet. That information was leaked out to all gossip magazines, who published the information immediately.
Ray's first album with Menudo was A Todo Rock, where he sang '"Si Tu No Estas,'" '"Chicle De Amor," and "Zumbador.". He continued through the time when Menudo had the number 1 hit Indianapolis and when Menudo started making it to the covers of Tiger Beat and other major teen magazines, and also when Menudo became famous in the Philippines and Japan.
