ALL THAT IS HOT IN ONE
ISSUE!
Once
again Reggaeton is featured on SalsaSPOT! This time we
are quizzing Cubans on their contribution to this trend.
We met with QBANITO
to get some answers. Qbanito
who now lives in Montreal, will be performing this upcoming
weekend on the main stage at the Annual Calle Ocho Street
Festival in Miami. Learn about this new
and upcoming talent in his exclusive interview with SalsaSPOT.
His opinion on what is happening to salsa really hits
the spot!
If Miami is not by your way, then you are in for treat
as this upcoming weekend you
can get to see XTREME Live in concert, Friday night at
Ace Place Banquet Hall in Toronto! These
boys are often compared to Aventura for their Spanglish,
melodic and alluring Bachata tunes.
Exclusive to SalsaSPOT two of you will go to their concert,
so make sure to enter your name in the draw.
We also have a tune for your pleasure, to tease your senses!
It is time for the March Top 10. We found someone who
can stand up to our very own DJ Julio Cesar.
Hot from Montreal, check out the not the Top10 but Top
50 from Ritmomania's DJ Francko. All
in one spot: what is hot and what is not: Bachata, Merengue,
Salsa, Cumbia and of course
R E G G A E T O N!
And in sync with what is popular and what is not, this
is that time of the year when you get to give your say.
To change the routine a bit, we are bringing THE
BEST TUNE POLL and each vote counts. Support your favorite
local artists and vote now!
And while some are celebrating and basking in glory, the
others who seemingly have everything face real media headache.
Meet JLo! The pop babe
is being targeted by the animal rights group PETA after
being photographed wearing fur coats and promoting the
controversial pelts in her new clothing range, Sweetface.
Well, good luck Jen – and hope nobody treats you
like decoration!
WE are a bit late, but the month is still young so check
out your March SalsaSCOPES
and compare them with your yearly forecast.
While we’re in March, many of our favorite people
are celebrating Birthdays
and one of them is the super talented and humble, Ricky
Franco. Come
celebrate a very special birthday this Friday, March 11
at Cervejaria with a Live performance from SON ACHE and
many Birthday surprises! Happy birthday Ricky and many
more successes!
One more exclusive thing to SalsaSPOT – A picture
gallery from an exquisite performance of two very real
and very shining stars. Alessandro
Garofolo & Annamaria Bassano showed why they are 10
times World Champions and why they are almost unreachable
in Latin dance. The organizers paid a
hefty 4000 Euros, but this couple didn’t disappoint
or graced us with over an hour of gorgeous costumes and
amazing performances. What a difference from our ‘salsa-scene’s
2-min performances’!
Our interview with this charismatic Italian couple follows
up in our next issue, and they are not only great dancers
– they are also real charmers and down to earth.
This interview will be for many to enjoy and for some
to learn what
kind
of attitude top dance performers should have!
Did you warmed up yet? If
all of this did not make you wanna shake your booty, then
check out our local Toronto beauties, who just finished
the semi-finals for Miss Latina Canada. Those brave ladies
had competed in swimsuit and nightgown cathegory, so we
believe you will not want to miss this gallery! As
we were invited to be the judges for this exquisite event,
you will have first hand info from the upcoming finals
and some will even get to see it, so stay tuned for our
next issue and until then….
