Ugly Betty may have been cancelled but that is not stopping Emmy winner America Ferrera…with two movies set for 2010, there is no sign of slowing down for Betty Suarez. The final episode of Betty will air on April 14th – yup, ABC didn’t even give it a chance to run through May, the end of the regular TV season. America’s next movie Our Family Wedding is set to come out in March and it looks very very funny. She also recently attended the Sundance Festival to present her other film The Dry Land, a drama revolving around the Iraq war. Although her TV career has been put on hold it seems her movie career has no sign of stopping.
La Onda Vaselina que despues se convertio en OV7 hacen planes para su reunion en el 2010. El grupo se rompio en el 2003 y varios de ellos han tenido exito como solistas, Kalimba siendo el mas exitoso seguido por Lidia Avila y Ari…ahora estos juntos con M’Balia, Erika, Mariana, y Oscar se reunen y hacen planes para un gira. Todavia no hay fechas para conciertos pero si hay noticias que pronto se grabaran nuevas canciones.
Todavia no es oficial, pero los fans are pushing for “Grito Mundial” to become the official FIFA World Cup Anthem. It seems a lot of countries submit songs and FIFA includes them in their soundtrack but only one becomes the official song—remember, Ricky Martin’s “Cup of Life”? That was a huge hit and Daddy Yankee is planning on being the next puerto rican to achieve this goal. This new video for the song is going to help it, the video is very very well made. The soccer theme is incorporated into the video and the beats and rythm of the song is contagious. Este single forma parte del proximo disco de Daddy Yankee titulado “Daddy Yankee Mundial”.
Seguro este tour sera uno de los mejores del 2010 para el publico latino. Alejandro Fernandez, Marco Antonio Solis, y Joan Sebastian se unen para “Los Tres Tour” que arrancara el 10 de abril en Anaheim y seguira a 10 ciudades por los Estados Unidos y despues sera anunciaran fechas en Mexico. Este tipo de tour se ha hecho antes con tres top latino singers pero esta vez lo interesante es que, Alejandro, Marco, y Joan cantaran juntos en duetos, en trios, y separados durante las 3 horas del concierto. Los detalles no son finales todavia, pero habra mucho intercambio durante el show y esto le da un muy buen twist a la gira – ofreciendo algo diferente para los fans. Se promete un final muy MEXICANO, con canciones de su patria, ya que los tres son mexicanos y son muy conocidos en el genero ranchero/grupero. Boletos salen a la venta el proximo fin de semana.
Enrique Iglesias fue el unico artista latino que cantara en la nueva version de “We Are the World” que fue grabada este pasado fin de semana. Carlos Santana tocara guitarra. La lista de artistas cantando en la nueva version es larga, incluyendo: Adam Levine, Josh Groban, Pink, Kanye West, Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Celine Dion, Akon, Usher, y unos 75 mas artistas. Faltaron muchos A list celebrities como: Shakira, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Jay Z, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood – - tal vez no puderion o no quisieron participar. The original single is one of the highest selling of all time and this new version will benefit Haiti and the rebuilding of that country after the massive January earthquake. Below is the original video for “We Are the World” and a peak at the new version.
Penelope Cruz ha sido nominada una vez mas para un OSCAR por su pelicula “Nine”. Este es su tercera nominacion y una fue para mejor actriz y esta es su segunda nominacion en la categoria de Supporting Actress, la cual ya gano anteriormente. La pelicula Peruana “La Teta Asustada” y la pelicula Argentina “El Secreto de Sus Ojos” fueron nominadas en la categoria de Mejor Pelicula Extranjera…muy buenas noticias para el cine latino.
Paty, Pilar, LuisFernanda, Katia, Sergio, Charlie, Victor, y Javier regresan! En la reunion de Garibaldi. Uno de los grupos mexicanos mas exitosos de los 90’s han decidido reunirse para grabar la cancion “73 Mil Amaneceres” para un disco especial que celebrara el Bicentenario de la Independencia de Mexico y el Centenario de la Revolucion Mexicana. Por ahora solo se reunieron para esta cancion pero es casi seguridad que los chicos anunciaran su reunion para una gira mas adelante en el 2010. Definitivamente uno de mis grupos favoritos cuando era esquincle y uno de mis primeros conciertos en el 91 en Cd. Juarez. Fun memories
I’m a big Jennifer Lopez fan, well more of the oldschool Jenni–you know when she did good movies like Selena, Out of Sight, and The Wedding Planner and remember those great hit songs she had like “Waiting for Tonight”, “My Love Don’t Cost A Thing”, and “I’m Real” …well as we all know, she is now known for just being J-Lo and not for her acting or singing. So, Ms. Lopez has been going back to her roots now, remember she began as a Fly Girl on the show In Living Color back in the early 90’s. She recently did a surprise intro on the Lopez Tonight show, she is in talks to do a guest appearance on Glee sometime soon, and it has now been confirmed she will do guest appearance on How I Met Your Mother in a March episode. Maybe she’s doing all this TV time as a way to promote her upcoming album Love?, but don’t singers usually do performances (oh, yea I remember the AMA disaster) and interviews? Based on her leaked single “Fresh off the Oven” and her current official single “Loubitins”, this new album is not promising anything great or interesting. This is a must now, in the time of Lady Gaga & Rihanna. Maybe it’s time to go the way Janet Jackson did and just semi-retire for now. Below is an appearance JLo did a while ago on Will & Grace and her recent appearance on Lopez Tonight.
La cadena ABC anuncia hoy la cancelacion de Ugly Betty…triste noticia. The show has been struggling during its 4th season, a lot had to do with the time slot change to Fridays. A few weeks ago, the show moved to Wednesday nights but the ratings have not improved. Lo unico bueno de esta mala noticia, es que los productores nos prometen un final buen planeado que se merecen los fans.
