We all knew that Mamita Mala (otherwise known as VL’s very own Maegan Ortiz) was hot, but it was high time we got some third party validation. Well, folks, that day has come, as la Mala herself has been chosen as one of the REAL hot 100.
The REAL hot 100 is:
The REAL hot 100 is a list featuring young women from around the country who are breaking barriers, fighting stereotypes, and making a difference in their communities or the nation.This project will not only combat the popular notion that all young women have to offer is their ability to appeal to men, but it will also highlight the important — but often overlooked — work young women are doing.
That’s right, folks. Being “hot” goes way beyond the surface and our Mala is all that and a bag-o-papas. From the REAL hot 100 site:

Venezuelan vice president Jose Rangel is expressing his ire over a video game which he says proves that the United States is looking to invade his country and take possession of its oil supply:
The game, “Mercenaries 2: World in Flames” only comes out next year but Venezuela’s Vice President Jose Vicente Rangel has already expressed anger — at the US government.“This shows the perversion of North American society, its government,” said Rangel on Wednesday, calling
President George W. Bush’s administration “a government of gangsters, drug traffickers and criminals”.
According to Agence France-Presse, the game depicts characters who look like Hollywood action figures invading areas that look very similar to Caracas and taking possession of oil facilities that bear a striking resemblance to those of Venezuela.

Last night I had the privilegio of being at the opening night of the limited NYC run of Hot Tamales Live and yes it was very caliente. This comedic variety show opened up with a trio of Brazilian dancers, perfect to celebrate Brazil’s victory over Japan in the Copa Mundial yesterday. Their outfits made many of the men in the audience happy too. The theme of the show was East Meets West, because it brought comics from both coasts together at the Times Square Laugh Factory. Kiki Melendez(pictured) hosted and created the event.
