Introducing Little Pico

On the green carpet at the Tortilla Awards (or as they are known in the BIZ : The Tortys)

Little Pico takes her place in front of the camera, she’s dazzling in her salsa-ness, head to toe in the latest couture: juicy ripe tomatoes, zesty limes and cilantro and crisp onions and cabbage

Cue Camera:

“Hello and welcome to the 2009 Tortys, today I’m on the green carpet interviewing all the nominees, so far we’ve spoken to The big cheese himself, Con Queso, and he was looking hot! He is nominated tonight for his portrayal as Colby Jack cheese in the 2009 Smash Hit Bean there done that. He is hopeful for a Torty this year and told use exclusively about the new project he’s working on, it’s an indie film called Shredded and sounds very promising! We can’t wait to see it!“

Pico turns in time to spot a nominee

“Here comes La Guac! Over here honey, my you look fabulous in green darling! Are you excited about tonight??”

La Guac: “I think we’re all excited Pico, it’s great to be a part of Chipotle productions, exciting roles that test me and make me grow as an actress”

Pico tears up “I’ll never forget your performance in From the Trees to the Bowl” I can’t imagine how much research must’ve gone into a role like that. You were marvelous!”

La Guac blushes “Thank you, it’s roles like that one that got me here tonight, I’d love a Torty of my own but I’m just happy to have been nominated.”

Pico “Well, we’re all pulling for you, we’ll see you inside” Turns to camera “How exciting, who do we have next? OH ladies and gentleman you won’t believe who I’ve spotted!” Waves him over
“El B! So nice to see you! Your adobo marinade smells absolutely delicious tonight!”

El B: “Only the best for me, you know that Pico” (chuckles)

Pico: “That would explain the Platinum wrapped suit cover tonight, who are you wearing???”

El B: “Chipotle of course, I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing anything else” (they both laugh)

Pico: Well, El B you seem to be a fan and academy favorite here tonight, you are up for a Torty for Best Comedic Performance for All Wrapped up as well as Best Actor for the drama Muy Grande para tu Boca which is the first time anyone’s been nominated for a Best Actor Torty for a foreign film! It’s a good thing you speak Spanish so well!

El B: “It is, of course, my first language, it certainly made it easier for me to concentrate on my acting and really dip into the role on a new level”

Pico “And you were superb I could almost feel the heat watching you go through that oven! If that’s not Torty worthy then I don’t know what is…”

El B: “All in a days work, and you have to work to be the best, that’s why I’m with Chipotle, they have nothing but the best ingredients around. Who would go anywhere else?” (they both laugh again)

Pico: “Thank you so much for stopping by, good luck tonight I have a feeling you’ll be walking away with two Tortys!” (waves and turns to the camera) “Well there you have it, it promises to be an exciting night! This is Little Pico from the Green Carpet at the Tortys, Enjoy the show!”
