2008 was a big year for Latin artists crossing over, just ask Mexican pop trio Belanova.

Their third studio album, "Fantasia Pop" proved to be the charm garnering the group their first Latin Grammy win this year. MTV News chatted with pop sensación Belanova to talk about their electrio vibes and the possibility of un nuevo album in 2009. Hear what they have to say right below! [MTV News]

The holidays came early for our favorite artists during the 2008 Latin Grammy Awards last night.

Julieta Venegas sparkled with alegría after winning "Best Alternative Music Album" and "Best Music Video - Expanded Version" for her masterful “MTV Unplugged” compilation. The glowing estrella also worked her accordion and vocal expresiones with a live performance of "El Presente." Luckily the timely celebration didn't end there.

La noche's theme was all about listening to the lyrics. Sin duda, Juanes encompassed the meaning with "La Vida Es un Ratico," which toppled the competition by snagging five Latin Grammy Awards, including "Album of the Year," "Best Male Pop Vocal Album," and "Best Song of The Year" for "Me Enamora."

The Colombiano also performed an R&B remixed rendition of "Odio Por Amor/Hate For Love" with the legendary John Legend. In between all of the excitement, Juanes gave a grande GRACIAS to everyone:

I can't believe it. I am very, very happy, very grateful to life, to music, to God, to the Academy. For me, this has been incredible. It's a dream.

His sueño appeared complete after sharing kisses with his amor Karen Martinez. The love didn't stop there...and no we don't mean Juanes ran around giving besos to all of las chicas! There were plenty of other artistas that celebrated their eventful win.

Flex also shared the romance by winning the award for "Best Urban Song" for his hit single "Te Quiero."

Professional reggaetoneros, Wisin y Yandel also flexed their smooth movimientos by winning the "Best Urban Music Album" Latin Grammy for "Los Extraterrestres."

Café Tacuba offered a heavy dose of energía with a show-stopping performance. The rocking quartet ruled the festivities by dominating the categories for "Best Rock Song" for "Esta Vez" and "Best Alternative Song" for "Volver a Comenzar."

The rocquero steez continued to take over with help from Belanova. The synth-pop rock band took home the Latin Grammy for "Best Duo or Group Album" for "Fantasía Pop."

¡Qué chido! Our infamous tongue award was aiming to please and spreading the love at last night's Los Premios in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Sin duda, Juanes received the most awarding licks (keep your thoughts PG 13 por favor!). The "Odio Por Amor/Hate For Love" peace advocate snagged four chévere trophies for "Artist of the Year," "Best Solo Artist," "Best Rock Artist" and "Best Artist - Central." Despite his big win, the Colombian offered his roquero cred to música legends Metallica.

Juanes stated:

I am here thanks to Metallica. When I was 13 I listened to [their] first record and I went to buy an electric guitar. I decided to become a musician.

The "La Vida es un Ratico" star may have snatched the most awards, but their were plenty of grande winners throughout the night. Retro performers, Belanova also received some pierced pink tongues for "Video of the Year" and "Best Artist - North." Our chica Denisse Guerrero was showing off her own lengua while giving screaming fans some competition on-stage...

Pero, who left fanáticos spell bound enough to steal the "Best Fan Club" award? The tongue-twistin' German rock grupo TOKIO HOTEL! Bill, Tom, Georg, and Gustav received enough tongue awards to go around by also winning the categories for "Best Song of the Year," "Best Ringtone," and "Best International New Artist."

Our heads are still throbbing from la noche's festivities! Be sure to check out the complete list of winners at MTV Latin America, and keep it locked because there is more Los Premios insanity to come.
