  • haha wow i forgot that Demi Lovato was part hispanic.

  • Stuttgart - Erneut wird Eva Longoria bei den diesjährigen ALMA Awards als Moderator der Show fungieren.

    Auf der am 25. August 2009 stattgefundenen Pressekonferenz sprach die Mexikanerin über alles was die "American Latino Media Arts Awards" betrifft. Am 19. September 2009 wird die Verleihung der Awards in den USA übertragen. In Deutschland sehen die Fans allerdings wie immer ausser einer möglichen kurzen Zusammenfassung bei den Promi-Magazinen nichts.

  • Your comment shows that you are a prejudice asshole.

  • i missed it too ugh

  • I can't believe I missed the Almas!!!! I'm so mad

  • Go Selena!!!

  • Yey REy Mysterio
