You’ll never believe what the Old El Paso girl looks like now – as she reveals her latest career move

She appeared in the classic Old El Paso commercials as the little girl who uttered the catchphrase ‘porque no los dos?’, which means ‘why not both’ in Spanish.

And Mia Agraviador, now 23, is set to return to screens in a new series of Mexican-themed ads for Melbourne startup Mingle Seasoning.

The video for the campaign features a throwback image of Mia, who appeared in the original ads when she was six years old.

At one point in the commercial, Mia references the ad that made her famous.

‘I’m good at Mexican,’ she takes a bite of the product and adds: ‘It’s good Mexican.’

These days, Mia is a talented artist and dancer who occasionally does TV commercials.

The former child star seems to have a passion for dancing and regularly uploads videos of herself performing hip-hop and urban routines.

Mia is also quite the fashionista, and likes to wear edgy outfits and stylish swimwear in pictures shared on social media.

Mia’s one-liner in the Old El Paso commercial is now a popular meme and has become a common saying that people use when they can’t choose between two things.

“Porque no los dos?” is Spanish for ‘why not both?’ and the ad was about a taco set that contained both soft and hard shell tacos.

In recent years, she has had minor roles in other commercials where she repeats her signature catchphrase.

In 2020, she appeared in an ad for Australian furniture brand Koala.

That same year, youth website Pedestrian created a YouTube episode featuring Mia for its ’15 Minutes’ series.

She revealed that fame came at a price and she often felt uncomfortable with the attention she received from the publicity.

As a result, she attended three separate high schools.

Mia is an artist these days and one of her works from 2015 was a finalist for the Young Archibald Prize.
