I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...Mario has been blessed with a God-given talent and strength that allows his gift and love of music to appeal to people of all ages, races, and backgrounds. And not only is he one of a few select R&B singers with true soul, but he's also shown his versatility now that he's a part of the acting world too. I've seen both "Step Up" and "Freedom Writers" and was impressed by his acting skills. There's no doubt that I'm a Mario fan for life!
