Burger King is employing two super star Latinas to help them do a little revamping of their image, among a host of other celebrities including David Beckham and Steven Tyler. It seems Burger King wants to be known less for their “colorful” – I heard that word the other day and it cracked me up – restaurant staff and more for being a “sexy” fast food brand. Is it working? Pues quien sabe, but their ads are pretty awesome! See More

I promise I’ll lay off the JLO posts for a while after this one… okay, so I’ll try. But how could one not talk about estas fotitos? They’re for an upcoming issue of Vogue and feature Ms. Jennifer Lopez herself – did I mention she was also honored as No. 1 on The Celebrity 100 by Forbes – in a bathing suit and a bikini. ¡Muy Caliente!
Yup, I’d say it’s safe to say this is the year of La Lopez! See More

He tries. He really does. We all do. It’s become an entire family effort to maintain Edgar’s bilingual skills. Even more so to ensure he is fluent in Spanish. Inevitably, as much as we try to avoid it, we always end up talking to him in English instead of Spanish. It’s not that we don’t feel comfortable speaking in only español, pero cómo que the words come out easier in English.
When he was younger, I think we were better at it. He was a lot more tolerant of our “speak Spanish!” commands anyway. Nowadays, nos sigue la corriente… but he has also made it perfectly clear English is the language he feels more comfortable in.
“Why do we have to speak in Spanish if we all speak English too?!”, he once asked us. To which all we could reply was ¡en español! as we tried our best not to crack up at his pretty smart aleck complaint. Read More

Y’all know I love everything JLO-related, right?! I’ve been a huge fan of Jenny from the Block since first laying eyes on her in the late nineties. Even despite all of her really bad choices in relationships and marriages, she’s always managed to have a certain appeal as a celebrity and a Latina for me. Regardless of how criticized her movies and music have been, I still watch them… and listen to them, and make everyone I know listen to them too, jajaja! Sorry guys! Comes with the territory when you’re my amigo.
This latest video though, for her new song Dance Again… I don’t know, kind of is not my favorite. ¡Cómo que no me gusta tanto! Read More
