"I have talked to Congress and the United Nations, but have never been as nervous as I am today," Martin, 35, told reporters.

"With this star my work has been recognized and this star is here forever," added the singer and former Mexican TV soap opera star who shot to world fame during soccer's 1998 World Cup with his fast-paced tune "Livin'La Vida Loca."

Actually, Ricky, if your career dries up, the star won't be there forever. There's only so much sidewalk. But we'll pray that doesn't happen!

Oh, and someone tell the AFP writer that it wasn't Livin' la vida loca but La copa de la vida that he sang for the World Cup. Get your RM tunes straight!
