10:00: The ads: Neutrogena Acne Wash with Paola Rey as spokesperson…Motrola Slivr; English ad translated to Spanish.
10:02: The moment I’ve been waiting for all night. One of my top 5 favorites in any genre, the marvelous Ana Gabriel, who’s receiving a lifetime achievement award tonight. Damn, the sound sucks again! She looks great though, in a glittery purple suit and purple eye shadow. You go, Anita! She’s totally suffering and feeling pain as usual…I love it!
10:05: Juanes gives Ana the award. She kisses him…so cute! She’s totally piropeando him saying she wants to take off his “camisa negra”. She says she wants to take advantage of having him on the stage to kiss him. “I don’t know if I deserve this or not, but I know that work and discipline is what counts. With effort, discipline and desire, you can achieve it.” Dedicates the award to her parents. ” Camera cuts to Pausini and she totally has the face of “No entender”. Starting to sing “Quien como tu”. YEAH!!! “Y nada tengo yo que esperar aunque me quedo en el aire…” I LOVE IT!!! She’s barefoot and rocking some sparkly jeans. DIVA.
10:10: Hell yeah, it’s a medley…the Mexican gay anthem “Simplemente Amigos”…”pero es que en realidad no aceptan nuestro amor…”
Strike that prediction about Shakira stealing the show…my girl Ana did.

24 Feb 20069:30: Ninel Conde, luciendo su pechonalidad, presents Best Male Vocalist in Regional Mexican category. Luis Miguel is nominated…he isn’t “regional mexicana”…my fave Pepe Aguilar is nominated. He won’t win because it’s obvious who will. It’s his night.
WINNER: Marco Antonio Solis
9:32: Rene and Paty present Luis Fonsi. He’s in the middle of the audience and among a sea of Puerto Rican flags. Sorry, but his singing SUCKS. Missing all kinds of notes. Pobre.
9:35: The Ads: BIG advertisers: McDonald’s with “I’m lovin’ it”…not impressed. Lays, however, has a pretty cute ad. Quirky.
9:40: Monchy and Alejandra performing. Safe to say they are a cut above Luis Fonsi singing live. God, this song sounds just like that “vuela, vuela” song — or is it just me? The dancers are pretty cheesy…dressed like the 50s but with masks on.
9:45: Mayte Delgado and Alejandro Avila presenting “Best Grupero Artist”. Bronco…Grupo Inovacion…Temerarios…Marco Antonio…
Guess who…
WINNER: Los Temerarios! I totally thought it was Marco Antonio again. Fooled me!

24 Feb 20069:22: Fernando Arau and Aron Gonzalez presenting Best “Genero urbano” artist. They are totally making fun of the reggaeton lexicon and pull out a “Reggaeton-Spanish / Spanish-Reggaeton” dictionary. Hmm…who will win. DUH.
WINNER: Daddy Yankee!
What is happening to me that DY looks appealing? Too much bitching about reggaeton comes back to bite you in the ass I guess. As usual I can’t understand.
9:24: Paty presents some Banda act. Didn’t catch who they were, I had to get up and that was the perfect time.
9:27: The ads…First GMC ad of the night. BORING…the same ones again and again. Unless there is something new, I won’t comment on them anymore.

24 Feb 20069:10: Tropical Song of the Year presented by part of Grupo Reik…one guy is missing and they had a cardboard cutout of him.
WINNER: OLGAAAAAAAAAA! She’s wearing a top hat and man’s suit and totally pulls it off. Like Juanes, if Olga is in your category, you are screwed.
9:12: Lidia Avila and Poncho Lizarraga present Best Pop Male Vocalist. Bad, bad, bad jokes. Lidia looks pretty.
WINNER: Luis Fonsi!
9:15: Rene Strickler introduces Laura Pausini referring to her as LATINA…Here we go again! Laura seems like a nice girl and all, but is another one of those performers I can’t see the appeal in. She’s just so flat pop. I do like hearing an Italian sing in Spanish though, it’s cute.
9:18: The Ads: JC Penney…another bland ad but at least it has some Latino people in it. Bud Light again. T-Mobile again. JC Penney again! Somebody’s trying hard. Chevy Silverado…there are some cowboy hat-wearing Tejanos in this one. Still bland.

24 Feb 20069:00: Best regional Mexican song presented by Mauricio Aspe and Eugenia somebody.
WINNER: My boys Intocable! Yeah!
9:05: Best rock song presented by Reyli and Cynthia Olevarria…so very obvious who is going to win when Juanes is in the mix.
WINNER: JUANES!
9:07: Daddy Yankee is about to hit the stage. It sounds LOUD. OMG, the stage, the background, the design is awesome! Truly a show-stopper. Huge screens, bigger than life, flashing the words “Hermandad” and quotes by Victor Hugo. I’m not a reggaeton fan, but that was great!
9:10: The Ads: Wendy’s again. Did I mention I really like this ad? Finally something smart in Latino-targeted advertising. Chevy Tahoe…God their ads or so boring and not targeted at all. There’s the vitamin commercial again…”genetically specific for Hispanics”…sorry for the redundance, but WTF??? AT&T…a mainstream ad with a Latino voiceover. Way to go, AT&T. Sierra Mist…pretty good ad, marginally funny, which is a lot for Latino marketing.

23 Feb 20068:20: The ads: Pepsi, with Eva Longoria…not a fave. TMobile: I love it. Guys texting each other, arguing whether a soccer play was a foul or not. Budweiser ad was boring. Nothing truly groundbreaking here.
8:25: My paisanos Intocable singing “Contra Viento y marea”. Awesome. Looks like they fixed the sound.
8:28: Award time: Best Tropical Album…I want Olga to win…
Everyone is screaming “OLGA!”
WINNER: YEAH!! OLGA!!!! I heart Olga!
Now she’s dancing with some reggaeton guy and singing her thanks.
8:30: No idea who these fools are. Un tal Jorge Reyes presenting Best Album, “genero urbano”.
WINNER: Luny Tunes and Baby Ranks…I can’t understand a word they are saying, except “Viva el reggaeton!”
8:32: The Ads: Hispanic Vitamins? “Only for the Hispanic community”…WTF???
The Wendy’s ad…I love it. It’s so silly but really my kind of funny. Glad to see I misread Stuart Elliot (NYT) in thinking that the real Latino artists were going to be in the ad.
Chevy Impala…typical car ad.

23 Feb 2006Almost 8:00…start already! Got my beer and I’m ready to go.
What the HELL is Marco Antonio Solis wearing???
Not so live from San Francisco…
8:00 — Juanes!!! He always looks so effortless when he’s performing. OMG the sound is horrible. Can we get some production value over here?
8:05 pm — Juanes introduces Shakira. Wow — two HOT stars back to back! Pobrecita has got her pajamas on. It’s very her though. AGAIN with the horrible sound. Weird to see her not gyrating around. I love Shakira. Prediction: she will be the star of this show.
8:10 — Paty Manterola and Rene Strickler (hosts) come out. Dumb schtick. Paty welcomes the English speaking audience, letting them know that they can get the English channel for sound as well. Crowd cheers when Daddy Yankee’s name is mentioned and when they mention Luis Miguel…nada.
8:12 — First award, presented by Jaqueline “Saltamontes” and Roberto Palazuelos: Best Album. Shakira, Kumbia Kings, Pausini, Luis Fonsi, Obie Bermudez.
WINNER: SHAKIRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
8:15 — La Quinta Estacion presenting the next award, Females artist of the year, Regional Mexican category: Ana Barbara, Diana Reyes, Isabela, Mariana (who ARE these people???)
WINNER: Ana Barbara…sin comentario All really had to say was “gracias” but not to her new hubby

Just a couple of Latino names on the Oscar nominee list this year:
Rodrigo Prieto (Mexico), Best Cinematography for Brokeback Mountain
Emmanuel Lubezki (Mexico) Best Cinematography for The New World
Gustavo Santalolla (Argentina) Best Soundtrack for Brokeback Mountain
If you like, you can also throw in “honorary Latino” Joaquin Phoenix (actor, “Walk the Line”) and Spaniard Alberto Iglesias (soundtrack, “The Constant Gardener”) para hacer bulto.

Golden Globes: Any Latinos Out There?
5:24 pm By Jennifer Woodard Maderazo · Celebrities| Entertainment| Movies| TV · Comments Off
16 Jan 2006
I am excited about watching the Golden Globes tonight. I don’t know how it happened, but I went from totally hating awards shows to becoming obsessed with them when I hit 26 years of age. I think this might be an indication of a sharp decline in my social life. Or something.
Anyway, I was curious to know if there were any Latino nominees on the list this year, so I went to the web site. The first name on the list, Maria Bello, seemed promising. After checking the IMDB I find that the actress is actually Polish-Italian.
