A Miami-born  television and film Actress, Alexa is perhaps best known for her starring role of Carmen Cortez in the hit movie franchise, Spy Kids, which included Spy Kids (2001), Spy Kids 2:  The Island of Lost Dreams (2002), Spy Kids 3-D:  Game Over (2003), and Spy Kids: All the Time in the World (2011).

Danny Trejo, and Daryl Sabara.



In addition, Alexa has also appeared on Broadway, playing the part of Penny Pingleton, in the Tony Award-winning version of Hairspray!

Another Florida native (doesn't that make a total of 3 so far, for the coming up Season?), Alexa's husband, Carlos PenaVega, is a television Actor known for playing the role of Carlos Garcia in the Nickelodeon series, Big Time Rush (2009-2013), which, coincidentally enough, also starred DWTS, Season 18's 4th Place Finalist, James Maslow (He and Peta Murgatroyd were so great together, weren't they?!)! ... Well, well, well, if it isn't a small, Disney-run, dancing, world after all!

As a Singer, Carlos has also known some notable success with the release of his first solo single entitled, "Electrico".  The song was sung in Spanish and was listed among the top 10 of the Latin iTunes Song Charts.

Carlos is also set to perform in the role of Kenickie in Fox channel's highly-anticipated television special, Grease: Live, which airs next year in 2016! ... Hey, nice!  ( ... "A-whop-bam-balooma, a-whop-bam-boom!")

Incidentally, the special will also star Actress Vanessa Hudgens, of the famed, Disney High School Musical trilogy, as Rizzo, Actress Keke Palmer as Marty, famous, comedic-Actor Martin Short as Coach Calhoun, Actor Aaron Tveit, of the acclaimed (although I still don't know why!) 2012 film, Les Miserables, as Danny Zuko, and finally DWTS' very own Julianne Hough as Sandy Olsson!

This exciting live, television event is also rumored to cast Nick Jonas as Johnny Casino and (drumroll, please!) Olivia Newton- John, herself, in the role of Principal McGee!


Having yet to dance, both Carlos and Alexa enter this Fall's Season already making Dancing With The Stars history, as the Show's first married couple to compete against each other!
