Latin Grammys, Tex Mex Style?

It looks like this year's edition of the Latin Grammys will be held in Houston, Texas. Univision is hosting a press conference on April 8th. Last year's Spanish language edition of the telecast garnered its highest ratings, over 11 million viewers.

Hope You Have a Strong Stomach ...

Shameless self-promoter/blogger Perez Hilton is now claiming that John Mayer french kissed him at a New Year's party, while Jessica Simpson grabbed Mayer's crotch. Ay dio! C'mon! First of all, look at this traficante de raviolis. Second of all, notice how it took months for Perez to make these claims. It couldn't have anything to do with him trying to deflect attention from his little scandal? A lesser-known blogger was allegedly duped by Perez to send him racy pics of himself.

Jessica Alba's baby to be named ...

At this point, we would like to say that Jessica is finally honoring her Latin roots by naming her kid Magdalena Pilar Buenaventura Warren or something. Unfortunately, the babies' name is going to be Honor. Honor Warren. That sounds like a judge on some far-off planet from Battlestar Galactica. (via guanabee.com).

Brett Micheals Rocks wisely

Bet you didn't know that Daisy, the overly maquillada rocker chick on the reality show Rock of Love, was Latina. Under 4 layers of makeup and the blond locks lies .... Oscar De La Hoya's niece. Maybe Oscar got his fishnets from Daisy or something? It don't matter anymore anyway, Brett Michaels picked the career-oriented cougar Ambre over Daisy on the finale of the show.

Milans pull Ronaldinho's stringy hair toward Italy

Soccer superstar Ronaldinho is not happy at Barcelona, and Barcelona is not really happy with the player anymore. It's funny that only 3 years ago, he was untransferable, untouchable even. But an uninspired year means that both Inter Milan and AC Milan are claiming the player is joining their squad next year. Our money's on AC Milan because of their own bad year.

In case you have never seen him in action, here's a sample:

Natalie Portman continues to break sci fi geek's hearts

No, that's not a swami wearing Natalie Portman's mom's white sunglasses. That is Davendra Banhart, the vaguely Venezuelan folk rock singer who is now more famous for going out with Natz than for his own weird music. She was also linked to Gabriel Garcia Bernal. Is Davendra an upgrade or downgrade from the Mexican actor?

Nina Garcia is Auf'd from Elle

Everyone's favorite Barranquillera Nina Garcia (from Project Runway) looks to be headed towards the exit door at Elle. Dicen que she wasn't let go sooner because of her appearances on the Bravo reality show. Nina, it don't matter. You don't need Elle anymore anyway. Start your own reality show and sell it to Mun2/MTV3/Elemundo. At least she knows what she is talking about, which is rare on reality TV. Here she is on Bluefly.com, going on and on about the pretty colors.

Mariah Carey v Any Other Singer, Round 43

Remember those Saturday Night Live skits where Celine Dion hosts a TV show and all she does is try to out-do, out-sing anyone and everyone? Your favorite Venezuelan (?) singer Mariah Carey needs a show like that. Besides making catchy hits (yes, Mariah, we will touch your body. Why you so needy and stuff?) all she does is snipe at other singers threatening to dethrone her.

Her latest victim? Leona Lewis. Carey does not want to be compared to the British singer. “Honestly, there has been so many, ‘This is the new her,’ and I’m like, ‘OK, show me the new her. Can she come and work for me and be my double?’”

Here are videos of Leona Lewis doing "Bleeding Love" (the official music video was unembeddable, thanks RCA) and Mariah Carey doing Visions of Love." Compare and contrast:
