La Oreja de Van Gogh is splitting
1:49 pm By Maegan La Mala · Celebrities| Chismes| Music| Spain · 2 Comments
19 Nov 2007The Grammy award-winning Spanish pop group La Oreja de Van Gogh (called badly dressed by some and fingernails on the chalkboard [see video for evidence] by me) is splitting up:
The singer of the Donostia group says “everyone who follows me and loves knows that this has been the most difficult decision of my life. The 11 years I’ve spent in La Oreja de Van Gogh and everything I have lived with them will always been in my heart and in my mind, but I felt that this is the moment to begin a new stage in my life, starting a solo career, which is both exciting and scary for me.”
While official headlines say the group is splitting, the rest of the members are actually set to release an album, sans singer Amaia Montero, in 2008.

Two very famous musical groups of feline nomenclature — Los Tigres del Norte and Jaguares — came together to give a voice to the plight of immigrants all over the world at the closing ceremony of the Universal Culture Forum 2007, which took place in Monterrey, Mexico last night.
Los Tigres performed their songs related to immigration, such as “Jaula de Oro” and “Paisano” along with Jaguares before an audience of over one hundred thousand people after the closing of a series of workshops on the topic of immigration.
The show was free to the public, but organizers were asking for a voluntary donation, which will be donated to the Mexican Red Cross to help support their assistance efforts in Tabasco, where thousands have been left homeless as a result of serious flooding.

Lopez Obrador Supporters to Cathedral Bell : Porque No Te Callas
8:07 am By Jennifer Woodard Maderazo · Activism| Politics| Religion| mexico · Comments Off
19 Nov 2007Remember Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the self-proclaimed legitimate president elect of Mexico? Well yesterday after a rally in his support, Lopez-Obrador followers ran into Mexico City’s main Roman Catholic cathedral, saying that church officials purposely rang the church bells earlier and louder than usual, in order to drown out the Lopez-Obrador rally.
Videos show the Obrador supporters running in the church screaming and jumping over pews that parishioners pushed in front of the oncoming crowd to prevent their entrance. The Sunday noon mass was slightly delayed because of the charge.
