List of Hannah Montana Main Characters - Rico Suave

Rico Suave

Rico Suave (Moises Arias) is the young manager of "Rico's Surf Shop," a concession stand located on the beach near the Stewarts' home. He most commonly interacts with Jackson, his employee, despite the fact that Rico is several years younger. In the second season he also attends school with Miley, Lilly, and Oliver. Rico is the main antagonist in the series.

Rico's first appearance is in "It's My Party and I'll Lie if I Want To", the fifth episode of Hannah Montana. He makes a total of five appearance in that season as a recurring character. His popularity led to his becoming a main character beginning with season two. All together, Rico has appeared in 58 episodes. He also makes a brief appearance in the film Hannah Montana: The Movie during Lilly's birthday party bash exploding through her cake. Although Rico does not know Miley's secret, he appears partly out of character in the episode "He Could Be the One" as an omniscient narrator who is aware of the secret. In this role Rico acts apart from the story. In the episode "Get Down Study-udy-udy", Rico had almost discovered Miley's secret according to the steps, the song used in the "Bone Dance" created by Miley and her voice. When Miley reveals herself on television as Hannah, Rico is shocked and horrified that he couldn't see the obvious, unable to talk to anyone afterward.
