Cruz left Cuba in 1960, believing she would return. Then she decided to settle in the United States. Two years later, her mother died, and the Castro government would not allow her to return for the funeral. When she yells, "Azucar!" (literally means "sugar,") but it served Celia Cruz as a "battle cry" and an allusion to African slaves who worked Cuba's sugar plantations.

Celia Cruz was born in 1925, not 1950.

My wife (Zoila)was a close friend of Celia's for over 30 yrs and did her make up on many of her appearances. Celia and Pedro were our Godparents. We loved her sincerely and appreciated her humanity. Thanks for your comments.
