Chuy Bravo might be a little person, but his big heart makes him a giant! The youngest of seven siblings, growing up in a small town in Mexico,
Bravo didn’t have much time to think about himself or his disability. His time has always been focused on the welfare of others. Bravo never dreamed that one day Los Angeles would be his home, nor did he think that one day he would be calling the set at
E!’s hit show
“Chelsea Lately” his office. But
Chuy Bravo will be the first one to tell you “God works in mysterious ways.”
Chuy Bravo’s road to stardom has been long and arduous. After landing a couple of small roles in some big blockbusters films such as
“Pirates of the Caribbean 3” and
“Austin Powers 3”, his big break was becoming the loveable assistant to
Chelsea Handler on the
E! Network hit show
“Chelsea Lately.” Chelsea who has been a mentor to
Chuy and coined his nickname
“Little Nugget” has been instrumental in his fame. She has even inspired him to pen a book, appropriately named
“Little Nuggets of Wisdom” which is filled with all the witty knowledge
Bravo has picked up along his journey to Hollywood stardom.
Bravos dedication and determination to make a difference in the world is admirable and inspiring. After hearing about a little girl in Mexico who earned straight A’s but didn’t have access to a computer, Bravo decided to take action. He quickly rallied the “Chelsea Lately” staff to raise the funds for a laptop and donated his own hard earned cash to the cause. The experience has inspired
Bravo to continue to provide much needed computers for good students who lack the necessary resources to enhance their education. Through support of his friends, family and the
“Chelsea Lately” crew,
Bravo hopes to make the laptop donation an annual giveaway to dozens of deserving students in the US and in Mexico.
In a struggle to overcome the effects of his own disability,
Bravo aspires to open a rehab center in Mexico to help heal those in need. Bravos dream is to open a comprehensive health center, catering to low- income people in Mexico who are struggling to overcome disabilities.
Chuy Bravo continues to persevere and succeed in the entertainment industry. He has a massive fan base and many supporters. You can get to know
Chuy Bravo on
“Chelsea Lately” weeknights on
E! at 11.30pm eastern time. Stay tuned, there is surely more to come from everyone’s favorite
“Little Nugget”, Chuy Bravo!
