I am very excited, along with all of Los Titeres to be nominated during awards season!
Here is our latest viral video. And by viral, I mean that it may make you sick... With laughter.

For me, Awards Season is the perfect excuse to go onstage when I win, looking dapper in my tuxedo and make out with my male creative collaborators, pretending that it is just the excitement of the moment. That's really what we're there for: to release pent up homosexual feelings not allowed at any other ceremony.
As a preamble, there's always a lot of press & publicity that mines the very core of your artistic self.

SHORTY INTERVIEW Con @LosTiteresTV
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Yes. It has inspired me to understand that social media stuff with a bird at its center is a recipe for success!
How long can you go without a tweet?
As a parrot: about 45 minutes, and then I have to either tweet, chirp or ask for a cracker.
What inspires you to tweet?
Other birds.
What's the funniest celebrity tweet you saw in this past year?
Adam Levine @adamlevine 6 Nov 12, in response to Mitt Romney losing the election: "That's what happens when you fuck with Sesame Street."

To bastardize a quote from Stephen Colbert, "I catch hypocrites in the headlights of my comedy."

Drunk Baby.

Sexting with Big Bird.
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
It's fun... Hell, no, it's another addictive job, like Facebook, that doesn't pay me.

10 more characters. Who thought up 140? Round that shit out to 150.

My tweets are inherently unique because I am a bird, and our tweets are better than anyone's.

What will the world be like 10 years from now?
I will have produced LosTiteres.TV on YouTube, been a huge hit, and then sold it to the highest bidding studio.

That's like asking how much time till Betty White croaks... Who knows?
What will the internet be like in 50 years?
We will access it though the Bluetooth Chip implanted in our brains.
In what ways do you waste the most time on social media?
Entering contests.
How will the world change in the next year?
I will produce a crowdfunding campaign to get dough for a blinking eye mechanism. Consequently the world will be much clearer.
How has social media improved your life?
It has given us a platform to address our audience w/out having to deal w/development hell while hoping our show gets produced by network TV!

LosTiteres.TV has more Global Outreach Potential than The Muppets, who're banned in Saudi Arabia 'cause it stars a Pig!

Write original material, or at least rewrite old quotes with new words like "twerk", "selfie", and "phablet", then pass them off as yours.

Follow us.
Why'd you start tweeting?
Because I am a parrot, and before I learned how to talk, it was all the rage with my peers.
As a parent, coach, or role model tell us: How do you use social media to help others focus on all that is good in their lives? Don't forget to submit a nomination for the #KeepGoodGoing award!
We focus on being funny. Laughter is the best medicine.

Biography
Started in 2007 with an entire cast of Latino characters and an edgy, satirical, sometimes political, snarky college humor, this puppet webisode variety show stars: parrot & host Señor Loro. LosTiteres.TV (or "ThePuppets.TV" in Spanish) showcases comedy from a Latino POV. Sesame Street visual imagery and style meets Muppet Show-like mayhem with an His-Panic twist. Plus, THE First PUPPET TELENOVELA EVER!
How do you or your organization use social media? What makes your use unique?
Señor Loro, puppet host and social networker of the show tweets backstage gossip, oftentimes confronting social news of the day with jpeg memes, such as our last one where we informed the Duck Dynasty guys that ironically "duck" in Spanish is dirty slang for gay. Skewering as many hot topics as possible from his unique POV, our tweets are out to stomp on hypocrisy & hate con biting ha-ha-hilarity.
