No puedes ignorarlas -- telenovelas son omnipresentes! Whether you're a hater or a die hard fan, you can't deny that telenovelas are big stuff in Latin culture. Maybe you grew up at the dinner table beggin' mamá to flip the switch during Guadalupe or María, La Del Barrio. Or, you're an old school fan and can be spotted straight-up chillin con abuelita during an episode of Corazón Salvaje...
Perhaps you're just into telenovelas for the teen scene, like the rotating cast of hotties in Rebelde, or the upcoming Cuidado Con El Angel starring RBD's Maite Perroni.
No one, not even gringos, can stop el poder de telenovelas. We've even seen them cross over into the US (ahem Betty La Fea = Ugly Betty!) This year marks 50 years since the first novela aired in Mexico in 1958, and to celebrate MTV News cut this retrospective for us; check it!
Who is your all time fave telenovela hottie? Adamari Lopez? Sofia Vergara? Weigh in on MTV Tr3s' homepage, where we're running a poll on the hottest mamacitas de telenovela.
