Mario Calderon is a multi-faceted talent, best known for his work as an entrepreneur, Emcee, philanthropist and model. Calderon has had a wealth of experience in many walks of life, and is one of those rare people that can say they’ve done it all. Not only has Calderon performed as a backup dancer for hit Latin star Ricky Martin, he has also been the face for huge advertising campaigns with big brands, including Verizon, Ford 150, Reebok, Doritos, Pepsi, Footlocker and even Rayban to name but a few. He has also had several appearances on television, including the FOX reality show titled Labour Of Love, and also hosts the hit new show Fandemonium, a show trying to find the most extreme fans across the nation.
Calderon is also the brain behind the current global movement aptly named 5-Minute Fiestas, a wonderful and creative idea to get people moving together in quick dance parties and making memories that last forever. Calderon also owns a his own production company, called Difference Of 1 Productions, and has been working to produce both talent and experimental new games at private events for over two decades, not to mention being labelled a Tony Robbins Platinum Partner. Calderon often feels the need to give back to his community too, and so together with his brother Vincente Calderon, they have now provided easier access to medical services, built offices, and includes exams and medical devices to help people with optical, audio and dental problems. These services are provided to patients most in need, or those confined to their homes due to age, mobility or access to care.
As his most recent project, Calderon has partnered with children’s social network Bridg-it, and works as Chief Engagement Officer.
