16-year-old Jose Bordonada Collazo is another self-confessed "talent show kid" whose been singing since he was five and started dancing when he was 11. He's a high full tenor, and he brings a pop voice to the group. Also from Puerto Rico, (Manati, in the North of the island), his first language is Spanish, but he's fully bilingual. He had maybe the most difficult time in the competition than any of the five, coming down sick during the weeks of the competition and getting put "on probation" in front of a national TV audience. But he hung in and came through. "We were really focused," he recalls. He points out something about the backstage drama captured by the reality-show cameras: "Some of us had a little bit of, like, you know, uh, moments with other guys where we would disagree, but us five - I don't really recall a moment that we fought." (To which Carlos adds: "Within the five of us, we've never had an argument, never had a confrontation with each other. We've always been the ones that have been close and totally problem-free.")
