Lo Nuestro Stars Shine
Well, amigas, it’s that time of the week again and I can’t wait to get this to you, assuming, of course, and being very vain in doing so, that you actually can;t wait for me to get this to you. As you can see, like all men, I think about sex 24/7, but unlike most men, I do think about other things as well.
Like fashion. Whether you are reading this just to laugh at my fashion sense or because you like it, I love fashion (as well as boxing) and try to be looking out for every opportunity I have to talk to you about fashion.
Tarararararararara……….which leads us to today’s event. From the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami, Florida, we got the Lo Nuestro Awards to Latin American Music today. All the stars were there, even the ones that are not singers, and they either shined or stormed with their outfits.
To start with, a friend of mine, Mexican diva Gloria Trevi, looked like a princess wearing a White evening gown and gold earrings. Trevi, who alongside Alejandra Guzman competes for the title of Latin America’s Madonna, has had trouble in the past, being part of Sergio Andrade’s infamous clan and having lived in Argentina and Brazil with Andrade and other clan members before being jailed for more than two years in Mexico. After she was found innocent of charges, she retook her musical career and tonight she sparkled like the princess, beautiful woman and human being she is.
Jacqueline Bracamontes, for her part, looked splendid in a silver and cream dress, which highlighted her dreamy “back apple”, a temptation if there ever was one to men after Adam’s temptation by Eve and The Devil. By the way, what’s up with women and The Devil always trying to tempt us poor, weak males?
Salsa singer Giselle, the Latin American version of Beyonce Knowles, wore a peach dress that really, really highlighted her natural skin color, making the Puerto Rican girl one of the night’s highlights by far. It may be that I am impartial towards Black women, but the girl looked delicious in that dress, as in delicious as a peach. (White women, don’t worry, I am into women of every color, it’s just that I like Chocolate a lil’ better).
The one who did get noticed for the wrong reasons, as always, was Puerto Rican merengue legend Olga Tanon. Tanon has had a long and fructiferous career and deserves the adjectives legend and diva by far and away, and the fact she works hard to provide a better life to her two children, one of which has a potentially deadly blood disease, makes her a hero in my eyes and she has my full support, and she is also a personal friend of mine, but when it comes to fashion tastes, she’s always ranked high…in bad taste. Today, she wore a navy blue…something, because I can’t call it an outfit really. It looked like she picked out the curtains from her room and put them on, and her look reminded me of the El Morro Castle in San Juan because that…thing, made her look antiquated. Olga, you are youthful, strong and the sweetest person one can imagine. But you must look what you are, not what women were in the 5th Century!
Ok, ok, today’s woman I must do in life….I will go with the aforementioned Giselle, very tempting and a good, young body, my best bet is I will never get close to her ’cause she’ll be like “Loser!”, but hey I can dream….it isn’t like you never dreamed about Justin Timberlake or, if you are a bit older, Kirk Cameron or David Cassidy, is it?
On a sadder note, I would like to dedicate this week’s fashion column to my friend from childhood, Matty Couture, who passed away two saturdays ago in a car crash. She was 21. Rest in peace, friend. You will be missed.
Well until next time, adieu mis amigas del alma, and take care. Keep buying good sense fashion clothes so your husbands’ minds keep as busy as mine! And remember, girls, Antonio Santiago loves you!
