Ryan Ochoa became a Disney kid after
The Perfect Game (2009), about a down-and-out Mexican Little League team. He became friends with Jake T. Austin and Moises Arias, and parlayed his way onto the Disney and Nickelodeon teencoms
Zeke and Luther, ICarly (2008-2010),
A Pair of Kings (2010-2012), and
Mr. Young (2012-2013), usually playing bratty nemeses.
But the 17-year old has developed a respectable physique, getting him a place on my list of
12 Unexpected Disney Channel Teen Hunks.
He's also busy in a boy band with his brothers: the Ochoa Boyz, aka Boyz You Like (
not the Ochoa Brothers, which is the name of a Colombian drug cartel).
The Ochoa Boyz consist of::
1. Ryan, born in 1996.
2. Robert (left), born in 1998, also a Disney kid, appearing on
Hannah Montana, Pair of Kings, and
Wendell and Vinnie.
3. Raymond, born in 2001, a big child star, with appearances on
10 Items or Less, A Christmas Carol, House under Siege, Hank, Special Agent Oso, Ice Age, and
Monster University.
4. Rick, the oldest.
I don't know how old, but he's in college.
Here they ask fans to guess who belongs to the abs. Give up?
It's Ryan.
Their lyrics are mixed. Some heterosexist:
Strutting her stuff, she looks fine, dudes try to look tough
Some not:
Let's go outside, run through the streets, and enjoy the night.
Jump on the cars, go ahead and reach for the stars
This isn't a dream, join the team, feel free to scream
I don't know if any of them are gay -- no gay content on their tweets or instagrams -- but I'd guess Ryan, because he has such an androgynous look -- he's a little heavy-handed with applying the makeup -- and because he's been linked with several gay-positive alpha boyz, including
Jake T. Austin,
Gig Morton, and Dylan Sprayberry (left).
