Mark is a single, gay Cuban-American living in New York—a city some say is the toughest place in America to be single. After a few false starts, he’s finally ready to go out and meet the guy of his dreams. But, first, he’d like a little bit of friendly help from Guanabee. We’ll send him to a gym, give him some style tips, get him a new outfit and turn him into Prince Charming by Valentine’s Day. So join Associate Editor Alex Alvarez as she and Guanabee help Mark get a new look, a new perspective and, hopefully, a hot new Argentine boyfriend. Because everyone could use a Marcover now and again. Your life depends on it. No pressure, though.
Well, Mark’s gone and left me for Argentina, but not before I was able to bribe get him made over. In Part Uno of our two part video post on Mark’s makeover, he gets a haircut from our new friend in tight white denim. Watch, learn, love and keep a lookout for Jessica Alba’s cameo, in what is perhaps her finest role to date.

Hot potatoe!

Marco, you are smokin’!
And, oh my gosh, how cute is Alex!?

@L_P: Yes! Now you know why I love that gal. Alex is as cute as a button (and smart — what a combo). She deserves her own series. Alex in the Big Apple or Alex, Queen of My Heart. Lame examples, I know, but you get the idea. Cameras can follow her around all day for all I care. We just want to see more of Ms. Alvarez. Mauser, please make it happen.

@ Guana: I had to check your email to make sure you weren’t my mom. Thanks, Mister! Your comments were incredibly sweet.
@ all: I’m so glad you enjoyed the clip. Wait for Monday’s video, when Mark will appear in a monokini. Or… Marcokini?
Chortle.
Sigh.
