Did Mario Lopez leave ACL?

I was reading People.com this morning and there was an article on him citing him as "the former A Chorus Line" star. Was that just a mistake on the magazines fault? Because I thought he was finishing the show as the last Zach (*groans*)

They probably just said that. He is scheduled to appear as Zach through September 7.

The show is scheduled to close on August 17th. I'm kind of surprised he wasn't a presenter at the Tony Awards on Sunday.

From the lips of Karina Smirnoff, Mario was at Hooters on Sunday night.

Mario was signing autographs at the Today's show earlier.

If you have questions, ask him directly thru his official website:

I wentto ACL last night and he was in it. He did a limited run of the show in April/May, left and came back. I was actually surprised at how good he was.

I believe he left for a few weeks to promote his fitness book.

Well I'm guessing he didn't as I just saw him as Zach this afternoon. This is on the side, but I have a funny story concerning him.

Me and my friend, dancingthrulife04 as she is known here, were stagedooring after ACL and Mario came out. We were there for everybody but figured that we would also get his signature and perhaps a picture. The more shall we say intense Mario fans were making things a bit difficult but we got his signature along with that of a few other actors.

Mario was making his way through the crowd to get to his car. He pushed Kat (dancingthrulife) out of the way and stepped on her foot on his way through the crowd. We understand that this wasn't intentional but some sort of an apology or acknowledgment that he just pushed aside another person would have sufficed!
