MIAMI — The Puerto Rican boy band Menudo, which gave singer Ricky Martin his start, is coming back as part of an "American Idol”-style reality show. Dozens of Latino teenagers showed up for auditions Saturday at a waterfront market in Miami, the Miami Herald reported. Judges included Johnny Wright, the music manager behind New Kids on the Block, ’NSync and the Backstreet Boys, and Backstreet Boy Howie Dorough.
