by: Mark Lelinwalla

Fox5 and My9 network officials will soon announce that the Terror Squad general will co-host the Puerto Rican Day parade. Joe, who has been a staple at over 20 parades, will provide commentary and interview celebrities and even politicians at the June 11th celebration in New York City. As a proud Puerto Rican himself, Fat Joe is excited about his impending correspondent duties at the parade. right “I want to interview everyone from Mayor Bloomberg (NYC Mayor) to Marc Anthony, who’s one of my idols, to the little baton girl from the South Bronx to get her tale on what it’s like to be part of this,” Joe told the Tempo pages of the New York Post. In related news, Anthony will serve as the parade’s Grand Marshall this year. The Puerto Rican Day Parade will be televised on Sunday, June 11 from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Fox5 and then from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m. on My9.
