Rene Farrait Nieves (born November 2, 1967) is a Puerto Rican singer, actor, and former member of the boy band Menudo.
[1] In 1998, Farrait joined five other former band members (including Reyes and Lozada) for a comeback tour named El Reencuentro.
[1] Following El Reencuentro's break up in 2015, Farrait, along with Reyes and fellow former Menudo members Miguel Cancel, Charlie Massó (who had substituted Farrait as member of Menudo) and Robert Avellanet returned to touring, this time being allowed to use the name Menudo again but using the name Menudomania Forever.
When Una aventura llamada Menudo was shot in 1982, Farrait had already left the band; substituted by Charlie Massó; nevertheless, he appeared on the background during parts of the film as one of the film's main secondary characters, "Señora Mía", greatly enjoyed the band's last album with Rene on it and had a poster of Rene and his Menudo band-mates in her room.
Farrait is played by Alejandro Bermúdez in the 2020 Amazon Prime Video series based on Menudo, "Súbete A Mi Moto".
