Victoria isn’t exactly what you’d call “deep”, but she’s no pushover. She knows what she likes, and what she doesn’t.

She strives for ever more glamour and refinement, even deciding to change the name of her driver from Rocky to the more patrician “Morgan”.

The stupendous Natalia Oreiro released the fiery single “Me Muero De Amor” even before it became the theme song for Muñeca Brava, in which she also stars. The show was a smash hit not only in Latin America but also in Europe and the Middle East, and as such buoyed worldwide sales of the record.

Her name is Milagros- her nickname, “Cholito”. She’s wild on the soccer field, and not much tamer off of it. An orphan, she was brought up in a convent. But now she’s almost 18, and she will have to make her own way in the world. The world might not be quite ready…

Los Pericos formed in 1986, a bunch of buddies who shared a love for Jamaican icons like Toots & The Maytals, Peter Tosh, and, of course, Bob Marley. No tribute band, they formed their own unique sound and have been jammin’ ever since.

The feisty Sevillian María La Mala Rodriquez talks about her career as a Spanish hip-hop artist. True to her “southern” roots, she often drops her “s” sounds, the way Carolina mentions in her clip on the various accents of Spain.

The worm might be blind but these guys can certainly see their way around a good hook. "Giroscopio" is a classic style video reminiscent of early MTV that fits well with this “power pop” tune. Yabla loves this band, you will too!

In this fun video that reminds us a bit of Elvis Costello, Enanitos Verdes front man Marciano Cantero contemplates new looks, and a bevy of fine looking ladies give their critique. The band formed in their native Mendoza back in the late 70s, but still cranks out hits to this day.
