Latin Grammylicious

I'm checked out the Latin Grammys on TV on Thursday night.  I watched as the current crop of hot recording stars who are enjoying massive success such as Shakira, Romeo Santos singing a duet with Usher, Pitbull with Marc Anthony, Christian Castro, Pepe Aguilar and Disney rehab comeback princess Demi Lovato entertained with gusto.  This 3 hour awards ceremony/spectacular is your traditional long drawn out affair with "highlights" that were either dope, corny or awful.  Calle 13 accepted the award for record of the year with Residente and their crew as they seized the moment to make a political statement supporting the current student protest movements in Chile and Puerto Rico.   I had to endure Alejandra Guzman and Franco De Vita as they sang an insipid ballad that was nominated for song of the year.  Co-host singer/actress Lucero and the Muppets own Kermit The Frog introduced the hot Mexican norteno band Intocable.  Pitbull and guest Marc Anthony performed their hit duet surrounded by an over abundance of scantily clad women..some wearing bikinis and some were being showered by water!  So much for a "top notch" awards show.  Oh well, there's always next year!
