Roque José Gallart Ortiz,[1] (born September 21, 1977) also known as Rocky the Kid, is a Puerto Rican broadcaster personality and occasional actor.[2] Gallart was host of a Mega-TV television show named Descarao Por La Noche (2017). Later on, Gallart and Danilo Beauchamp created a comedic sketch called Los HP.[3] Gallart replaced Héctor Travieso as co-host La Comay for the remainder of the show's run on Mega TV. In 2023, the word perreo was included in the dictionary of the Real Academia Española and Rocky The Kid was the first to use that Spanish slang term in 1999 on the radio program "El Despelote" to describe or to say when they have a romantic date. "voy a tener un perreo".[4]
