| Zacarias Model Houston, TX Singer/Songwriter/Actor/model
 Hello, I'm Zacarías (which is my stage name and it's pronouced as sah-kah-REE-ahs, not sah-kah-RIE-ahs) and I'm 28 years old. I'm originally from Harris County, Texas and I used to stay in El Paso, Texas. I'm a multigenerational multiracial man of African-American, Native American, French ( Louisiana Creole & Geechi) and British descent which I strongly refuse to deny that for anyone in a public/social sense. ( "Multigenerational multiracial" means person whose parents, grandparents, or ancestors are from multiracial ancestry.) Yes, I'm very open to play roles that are either "mixed-identified" or "black identified". I can communicate an average amount of the Spanish language and I can sing some songs in Spanish. I can also do Latino (esp. Mexican/Chicano), Ebonic, Ghetto, American Southern, Valley Girl, English, Urban, and Jive accents.
I'm a model for Laura's Productions in El Paso, Texas and an aspiring crossover/bilingual singer and actor. My music interests are pop, R&B, hip-hop, salsa, Tejano, cumbia, new jack swing, dance/house, tropical, Reggaeton, freestyle, reggae, and norteno. I have a lot of muscial infuences which are Mariah Carey, Jon Secada, Ricky Martin, Daddy Yankee, Celia Cruz, Josephine Baker, Selena, Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, Troop, Dru Hill, Kumbia Kings, Vanity (aka Denise Matthews-Smith), Dorothy Dandridge, Jimi Hendrix, Jay Perez, Intocable, N'Sync, Janet Jackson, Stevie B, Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, Al B. Sure!, Toni Braxton, Cher, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Seal, Enrique Iglesias, Madonna, Paula Abdul, Destiny's Child (esp. Beyonce), Ginuwine, Michael Salgado, Pete Astudillo, Lionel Richie, Prince, Black Box, Lil Kim, DLG (Dark Latin Groove), Az Yet, SWV, Mary J.Blige, Tarsha Vega, Blackstreet, Fito Olivares, and recently La Lupe Yoli. By having an unique talent and interest, I want to use those things to break the barriers in the entertainment industry especially in the Latin music field. One of my musical role models is Mariah Carey and I do want to some work with her.
Also, I would like to work with Vin Diesel's One Race Productions and do movies for him along with other production companies. I have acted in school plays during the 1990's and as an extra for the TV movie, "King of the World" with Terrance Howard in 1999. Since I'm with Laura's Productions as a model, I took their modeling classes to advance my modeling skills. I have done four fashion shows with this agency. Before I joined Laura Rayburn's agency, I did two fashion shows in the past. First one was for Foley's Spring Show at a Foley's store at the Pasadena Town Square in Pasadena, Texas. I was eight years old at the time in 1988. I did another one when I was seventeen years old for the Knights of St. Peter Claver of my parish in fall of 1996. I'm hoping to accomplish my entertainment career goal by the end of this year.
