Wilmer Valderrama, star of the Disney animated series Handy Manny, drops by storytime at the USO General Douglas MacArthur Center at New York City’s Port Authority Bus Terminal on Tuesday.

Alongside his Handy Manny alter-ego, Wilmer passed out gifts to children of active duty service men and women from the Tri-State Area.

Earlier, the former star of That 70’s Show shared with Just Jared about why exactly he’s so excited to be working on this project:

“I have an eight-year-old baby brother (Christian) who was six when I started doing Manny. He’s one of the main reasons why I’m so proud of being on the show. This show, I felt, would make a great example for him. That’s how I became passionate about his demographic level.”

Former That 70’s Show star Wilmer Valderrama rang up Just Jared on Tuesday to talk about his Disney animated series, Handy Manny, a few of the projects he’s producing on the side and his Halloween plans for tomorrow. Here’s what the 28-year-old actor had to say:

JJ: Hi, Wilmer! Thanks for taking the time to speak with me. Are you familiar with blogs at all? Do you keep up with celebrity gossip?

WV: Not so much, actually. To be honest, I’m kind of out of the loop and I prefer to be that way. I read sports blogs a little bit but for the most part, I’m not an online guy. I’m more of a newspaper kind of dude.

JJ: Your Disney show Handy Manny was renewed for its third season. Can you tell us a little about the series?

WV: Handy Manny is a show about this young man who owns a repair shop. He does all kinds of repairs around town and he has a team of talking tools. Each tool represents a different character trait, different personality. Really, really cool concept for a show about being proactive by working as a team, sharing with others, and understanding people’s needs. And most importantly, to share. Also, the show has a little bit of a Spanish, bilingual side to the show. Not very preachy but it does give you one or two words; a phrase here or a phrase there. So, subliminally, you can learn a different language.

Here are some personal photographs of Jessica Alba and husband Cash Warren from last Thursday at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. There, Sen. Barack Obama was the first African-American to be officially nominated as a candidate for U.S. president by a major party.

Cash blogged about his experience at the DNC, saying, “This was our first trip as a family… It’s always nerve-racking for new parents to fly with their child because you never know if you’re going to ruin everyone else’s flight with a screaming baby. (To date, Honor has been a great baby. Rarely crying. Opting to express herself through simple Haiku’s or interpretive dance instead…yeah right. My girl’s got opinions. lol).”

Jess and Cash went to the convention in a limo with celebrity pals Fergie, Rosario Dawson, Wilmer Valderrama and Kerry Washington. Also pictured inside at the DNC: model Lily Cole and Without a Trace star Enrique Murciano
