Ricans are US citizens. Although, he’s got an uncle
who was once deported to the Bronx. With the premiere of his
first television special, “Comedy Central Presents:
Bill Santiago,” he won over fans nationwide with his
dead-on observations about Spanglish – “twice
the vocabulary and half the grammar!” and his beloved
catchphrase “¡Porque Because!” He's also
been featured on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Que
Locos, American Latino, and The Late Late Show with Craig
Ferguson. Last year, he hosted the Latin Grammy Person of
the Year Award ceremony.. |
