So u guys know how nobody knows where Fez is from, but he's spoken Spanish in the show? (like when he sang "bésame mucho" to Jackie... I think? Can't really remember) Anyway. As we know, Fez says "Ai" a lot... Only that, he doesn't. Assuming that he speaks Spanish (or at least the actor who plays him does); it isn't "Ai", it's "Ay". That's a Spanish word for "oh" and so on, as applied by Fez. Just wanted to clear that up, cuz as Spanish as my mother tongue, the misspelling just kinda annoys me
Hi!
Wilmer Valderrama, who plays Fez in the show, is latino and that’s why Fez sings in spanish and probably why he says “ay” a lot. The character itself says he isn’t latino, that he comes from an island that is never mentioned, is supposed to be part of the charm of the show.
As a latina myself, I can tell you what it actually is: racism. Fez “mysterious” origin is a joke, it was always a joke, and we have no choice but to accept it or try and fix it in fanfics.
But yeah, Fez ain’t latino, his actor is. And no, no one knows where Fez is from.
PS: Please, everyone, read this-- This is the last question we are answering that has nothing to do with Hyde and Jackie. This is Zenmasters blog, not a general That ‘70s Show blog. Whatever question you have about the show that doesn’t concern Hyde and Jackie, you can send it to @jacquelineshyde or @thestupidhelmet or @that70sshowofficial.
