Maná grills Hillary Clinton

16:04 H | Topics: Celebrities - Music - Politics

In a world where two Latin American leaders can seem like lovers, a Mexican rock group can interview an American presidential candidate:

Mexican rock band Maná and senator and U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton held a meeting in which they spoke about immigration, the environment and the possibility of a woman leading the country.

The musicians, who are enjoying a successful tour promoting their new album "Amar es combatir" met with Clinton in New York on the invitation of the ex-First Lady, who considers their opinions important for her quest for "better relations between the U.S. and the world".

If it seems random to you that Hillary chose Maná, it isn't. She must have sniffed them out via Al Gore, who had already tapped them for his SOS environmental tour last month.

And what did Maná have to say to Hillary? That immigration reform for the U.S. is urgently needed. And I guess they got the answer they wanted from her as at a concert in Chicago last night they hailed her as a champion of human rights.
