‘What happened to Felipe?’ Film helps Lopez tell his story
NEW YORK — Felipe Lopez somehow forgot what all the attention was like.
That would have been impossible to imagine 25 years ago, back when he practically owned magazine covers and newspaper headlines. But he has been out of the spotlight for a while, at least until it came time to promote a film about him.
Then it all came flooding back.
“I forgot that we are the capital of media,” Lopez said with a laugh. “I’m going from 7 in the morning until like 7:30 at night for the past two days.”
