Making it into the hearts and homes of Hispanics across the country with his vallenato tropi-pop fusion tunes, and adoration for his family… it was no surprise he is the perfect choice as the face of the new Hispanic got milk? campaign. The got milk? ad with Carlos Vives will launch in national Hispanic magazines next month highlighting the benefits of starting the day with milk's 8 grams of protein in every 8oz serving.
"I love to drink an ice cold glass of milk with breakfast. It gives me protein and other nutrients I need and energy to help me get through my morning and prepare for my performances," said Vives. He added "You could say that like milk, I'm powered by protein."
