Mario Lopez Is Popping Up Everywhere

Did you see “Holiday in Handcuffs” starring Mario Lopez (Saved By the Bell, Dancing with the Stars) and Melissa Joan Heart (Sabrina The Teenage Witch)? The made-for-TV film was more of a romantic comedy than an actual Christmas story. It was funny and touching, and despite the questionable title, was very cute. Mario’s role was more than just looking good, and the kidnapped customer had to be on his toes. He finally came up with a plan to escape - and put Melissa behind bars.

Mario’s dating Karinna Smirnoff (lucky girl), and has been exceptionally busy, and he has plans to be busier. He recently helped out at the Miss Universe and Miss Teen USA contests, and now he’s emceeing Boob or Bust 2 - Go Big or Go Home! There, small-figured women will be vying for money to enhance their busts.

And the gorgeous star, who made girls swoon in Saved by the Bell, isn’t stopping there. Mario Lopez and Christina Milian will be starring in the CW’s new TV show, Eight Days a Week, in September 2008. Mario’s playing Peter, a New York executive, and Christina is playing Olivia, an assistant in an art gallery. The TV show is expected to be similar to the film “The Devil Wears Prada” and the TV show “Ugly Betty.”

So, if you’re looking to see more of Mario, there are plenty of places to look.
