Rene Farrait (born in 1966) is a former member of the teen band Menudo. He was a member during the band's most successful period.

Farrait played the bad boy of the band, and he played the part well, owning a bike and being the one Menudo member with the most girlfriends in real life.

Rene's trademark song was the hit Subete a mi Moto . (Come Up Get On My Bike).

After leaving the band, Rene became a solo singer and made a few albums.

In 1987, he joined former bandmates Ray Reyes and Johnny Lozada and formed a band named Proyecto M . They lasted two years together, during which they became very popular in Puerto Rico and Venezuela, and acted in a few soap operas.

He married Leyda Barreto in the 1990s and joined his former bandmates for a comeback tour named El Reencuentro. It was named like that because they couldn't use the name Menudo due to legal issues.

Rene faced health troubles in the early 2000s, but he recuperated.

In 2005, "El Reencuentro" returned for a one concert engagement in Puerto Rico. Farrait was once again involved in the musical project, but he survived a motorcycle accident that left him with 20 stitches on his jaw area just days before the concert.

As an entertainer, Rene loves contact with his public and is always available to sign autographs, take pictures and talk with his fans about his period at Menudo.
