In the Biz: Rafael Valentino @ValentinoRafael
Where are you from/where do you live?I’m originally from PG County, Maryland. I currently live in Brooklyn,NY. I am mixed African-American, Egyptian, and Puerto Rican.
If there was a theme song in your life, what would it be?
Drake’s “The Calm” from his So Far Gone mixtape. This song speaks to me because he is talking about how everything is coming together and his plans to take over.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to do what you do?
If I had to advise someone looking to pursue my industry (model/actor), I would tell them to do their research.Know the top agencies, know who the top acting teachers are, and know what your plan of action is to accomplish your goals.What is the key to being successful/to stand out in your industry?
Although I do have some very noteworthy accomplishments thus far, I have more to do in order to consider myself “successful”; But, I’ve managed to achieve some successes by networking, self-preservation, having an agent that truly believes in your goals, and patience.Patience is imperative because nothing happens overnight. One must start somewhere with a goal in mind and progressively pursue it, daily.
What is your favorite quote?
Tough one, I have so many. I will narrow it down to two though.“You must do what you hate and learn to love it.” -Cus D’amato“Win through your actions, never through argument.” -48 Laws of Power, Law 9

I love H.I..M
H.I.M = Highly Interesting Men.
A few months ago I posted a video with brother Gerry and Jason Clemmons. Loving what they said in the video and fascinated by how in sync these identical twins are… Well guess it was serendipitous for me to get on the L train and see them! Half Black, Half Portuguese… completely awesome! They are actors and models but of course. How to tell them apart.. umm I think when they pose for photos Jason always has his arm over Garry’s shoulder – I dont’ know but I think I am right.
The Man’s Guide To Love #210 from themansguidetolove on Vimeo.
I was so excited and I guess they sensed it cuz Garry said hi to me and Jason had his new Macbook. In their matching Lululemon + Nikes they were just heading back home from the gym and I was heading to my interview at Vice magazine in Brooklyn. God bless Google and Facebook… 🙂 Even though the above video says they are 23 and this article says they are 28, i think they are about 29… Super nice and down to earth.. and not even mad at me cuz I didn’t have gum with me. Hope we actually hang out and become real friends. They I got off the train and saw and Argentino Dogo called Che. Amazing. Can’t ask for a better day.
I bet I could tell them apart… ummm maybe not.
