Five Facts About Nickelodeon And "Big Time Rush" Star Carlos Pena, Jr.

Below is a Nickelodeon News article about Nickelodeon and "Big Time Rush" boy band star Carlos Pena, Jr. from the 'Nickelodeon Stars' section of the (geo-locked) official Nickelodeon USA website, Nick.com:
Carlos Pena Is A Black Belt!

Carlos Pena is a well-trained entertainer. But he also has the creds to take on a number of other jobs! Like scuba instructing, cooking, even competitive eating (have you seen how fast he can wolf down a corn dog?). While interviewing with Popstar!, Carlos listed some all new fun facts about himself. And we learned how much of a multi-talented star he really is! Peep his facts, below.

1. Carlos has a black belt in Taekwondo!
2. Carlos was a cheerleader in high school.
3. The BTR boys call Carlos the "mom of the group," because he's always picking up after them (he can be a bit of a neat freak).
4. He's a certified scuba diver.
5. When Carlos is crushing on a gal, he likes to cook for her!

So who's ready to throw on their flippers and head into the ocean with Carlos? Or join him in the ring for a kung fu face off? Hmmm, considering his black belt status, we'd better stick with diving for fish.
