This year’s Coachella Valley Music and Art Festival should have been called the Latin Coachella Music Festival as the Latinos brilliantly took over.

Tijuanaera princess Julieta Venegas, wearing a beautiful purple dress, danced around the Gobi stage singing songs mostly from her last two poppy albums. In between songs Julieta gave some warm-hearted love advice in both English and Spanish.

“It’s a pretty bilingual day,” she said.

Indeed it was all 3-days, with performances by Ozomatli on Saturday and Jose Gonzales on Sunday.

Rodrigo Y Gabriela played an outstanding rock-acoustic set which had fans chanting “Mexico, Mexico.”

International musician Manu Chao, on the main stage, also had a breathtaking performance. Throughout his set Manu Chao dedicated songs to his Mexican fans and even performed a punk-rock version of the Mexican traditional tune “Volver, Volver.”

L.A. band Rage Against the Machine reunited with frontman Zach de la Rocha and closed the show with an exploding set of their most popular songs.

Hollywood stars also came out to support the music and art festival. Actress Jessica Alba was seen looking all grumpy as her boyfriend Cash Warren trailed behind.

Veteran Coachella-goer and actress Cameron Diaz returned, this time without her Ex. Cameron has been attending the festival for a couple years now. It seems she’s hooked on Coachella just like us!

A day after the release of Curve Magazine, Michelle Rodriguez posted a message yabbering on about how the magazine made assumptions about her sexuality.

Michelle Rodriguez has officially come out of the closet, well not really. In the latest issue of the lesbian-magazine Curve, Michelle is on the cover and hints about whether she is or isn't a lesbian.

Just come out with it already.

Actress Rosario Dawson casually walking, with a female friend, in New York’s Washington Square Park Friday evening with a shopping bag in hand. She wore skinny black jeans, a light hooted-sweater and sported a lose ponytail. Several young men spotted the Grindhouse actress and one of them had the courage to actually go up to her. She kindly smiled at him and continued on her walk.

Something in the reggaeton world is stirring big-time and we’re diligently trying to find out the scoop between Don Omar and Wisin Y Yandel. They have already worked on songs before, but now we hear that these artists might turn into a group.

As soon as we know, you’ll be first to find out.

Wisin Y Yandel are currently in LA working on their new video for the single "Yo Te Quiero," and are also collaborating with Wyclef on an up-coming tune.

Eva Longoria and her basketball player fiancé Tony Parker (what team does he play for again? who cares) are in the final stages of planning their wedding that will take place in Paris, France on July 7th.

La Eva and crew visited the church, Saint Germain L’Auxerrois (near the famous Louvre Museum), where she could potentially be walking down the aisle.

Shakira’s latest video “Las de la Intuicion,” which she directed herself, is climbing the ranks of…YouTube.
