The video was produced as a companion to the new (English-version) 'We Are The World' video that was created to support Haiti following the massive earthquake that shook the nation.  Y ahora, con el terremoto en Chile este fin de semana, a Spanish version of the song couldn't be more fitting.  Following the 10pm premiere of the video, you can find more info on the epic collaboration at www.somoselmundo.org, so make sure to check that out after 10pm!  Info on the premiere can be found at Univision.com.

That's right, it's been announced that Thalía is returning to the medium that helped make her a household name: la televisión!  La cantactriz will be featured in the upcoming season of 'Mujeres Asesinas,' una serie de Televisa, in which she will play just that.  Una mujer asesina.

Also rumored to be partaking on the show this season is Belinda, who is following up her successful role in 'Camaleones,' as well as Cynthia Klitbo, Gaby Espino, Kate del Castillo y más.  Looks like this will be a show full of seriously sexy femme fatales! [People En Español]

What can we say about Debi Nova?  A super hot singer-songwriter from Costa Rica dancing on a beach with a few of her hottest friends... color us intrigued!  So, quien es esta nueva cantante?

Don't be fooled by su bello rostro; Debi Nova is way more than just a pretty girl with a killer voice to match!  As a 6 time Latin Grammy-nominated songwriter, she has written hit canciones for the likes of Belinda, RBD, the Black-Eyed Peas and Sean Paul.  Plus, she also plays a host of different musical instruments, including electric and acoustic guitars, piano, bass, and percussion.  We were pretty impressed with her Alicia Keys-like rendition of Juan Luis Guerra's classic, "Bachata Rosa," which she performed at the Miss Costa Rica pageant way back in 2007.  And she shakes her hips in a way that would even make Shakira verde de la envidia!  Oh, and she's only 24!  She's definitely the whole package, y no nos aguantamos por ver con que más nos va a sorprender!

Check out her new video for "Drummer Boy" below, as well as the Making of the Video here. Catch Debi Nova on her MySpace and Twitter for more info and to listen to some more tracks!

Belinda has been working on a new track, as she recently told her fans in a live chat.  Joining her on vocal duty is none other than current duet king, Pitbull.

First Jennifer Lopez, then Paulina Rubio... ahora Belinda?  Looks like Pitbull's piling up those duets with bellas Latinas, and we can't blame him.  Rumor has it he's also planning on recording a duet with the late great Celia Cruz using some new mixing technology. Is there anyone with who he wouldn't collaborate?

Either way, we can't wait to hear it!  [LatinGossip; Latina]

Relief has been pouring in for the impoverished island of Haiti in wake of the 7.0 magnitude earthquake that devastated the nation's capital of Port-au-Prince on Tuesday, January 12th. And while we've heard dozens of stories on the 2 million and counting that Wyclef, one of the country's most famous exports, has raised through his organization Yele Haiti, we've heard very little on what some of our favorite artistas Latinos are doing to help.  Here's the scoop!

Wisin y Yandel have reached deep in their pockets to donate to the victims of Haiti. The duo have given $100,000 to a Haitian orphanage, and another $100K towards the purchase of generators to help restore electricity to the devastated nation.

The boys of Aventura are also donating big bills! A whopping $25, 000 to their relief organization of choice, the American Red Cross. The Bachata quartet will also have Red Cross volunteers accepting donations on-site at their 4 Madison Square Garden concerts over the next two weeks.

Ricky Martin isn’t just writing a check; he's heading to Haiti! Our favorite humanitarian boarded a plane to Port-au-Prince today, and plans on providing as much on the ground assistance as possible.

Belinda is doing her part as well, and has taped a special PSA for the Red Cross. The segment is meant to motivate and inspire the Mexican public and others to donate and give to the relief fund in Haiti. (LatinGossip)

Are you doing your part? To find out how you can do more, head on over to Think.MTV.com. And make sure you watch Hope For Haiti, an MTV Telethon broadcast LIVE and hosted by George Clooney, Wyclef, and CNN's Anderson Cooper, on MTV Tr3s Friday, January 22nd at 8pm EST/PST.  All donations will directly benefit Oxfam America, Partners in Health, Red Cross, UNICEF and Wyclef's Yele Haiti Foundation.

The countdown of lo mejor de la década pasada continúa... Tonight, we will be counting down los galanes más guapos de los 00s.  No te lo pierdas at 7pm EST to see if you agree with our picks for the hottest guys in the world of entertainment from the past decade!

Last night was all about the ladies in our Mamasotas countdown.  Missed the show?  Check out who made the cut here.  Cuéntanos -- do you agree with our picks for the hottest ladies of the 00s?

Some of our personal favorites?

1. Shakira

Talk about Latin invasion.  Shakira took the Latin music industry by storm during los 00s, pero la rubia colombiana also showed the world how to do the crossover game right!  With bilingual albums like Laundry Service (Servicio de Lavanderia) and Oral Fixation, Vol. 1, la Loba released hit after countless hit in English, y también en Español!

2. Jennifer Lopez

Before Shakira made the crossover game all her own, the bar was set by none other than Miss JLo.  Jenny from the Block started off the decade con mega-éxitos como "Waiting For Tonight" and "Love Don't Cost A Thing." Los 00s saw Jennifer Lopez through a series of high-profile romances, until she finally settled down and married award-winning salsero and fellow boricua darling, Marc Anthony.  But married life and motherhood aren't slowing JLo down - the Bronx-born diva will be releasing un nuevo album en 2010.

3. Thalía

La bella cantante Mexicana tried her hand at the crossover game too, pero saben, we prefer Thalía's "Amor A La Mexicana," están de acuerdo?  Not only did Thalía become an actual mamasota en los 00s when she gave birth to her daughter Sabrina Sakaë, but she also had a major comeback in 2006 with her hit "Ten Paciencia."

4. Belinda

No solo hizo su nombre en el mundo de la música con canciones como "Bella Traición," esta bella cantante also made quite a name for herself en el mundo del chisme!  With some hot telenovela roles and a collabo con cantante panameño Flex under her belt, Belinda definitely made her presence felt en los 00s!

5. Paulina Rubio

La chica dorada had quite a run en los 00s with various Spanish and English songs, including "Ni Una Sola Palabra" which helped put this former Timbiriche singer back on the map.  2009 saw an even bigger comeback for Paulina with the release of Gran City Pop and a red-hot performance with Cobra Starship at Los Premios MTV.

The list of mamasotas also included Fanny Lú, Anahí, Shaila Durcal, La Quinta Estación (Natalia Jiménez), Alejandra Guzmán, Gloria Trevi, Nelly Furtado, La La and Kat DeLuna, along with our own ReMexa host y cantante de duranguense, Jazmin Lopez.  Who are YOUR top 5??

Mexican Pop diva Belinda has officially ended her business relationship with her parents.

Beli's Camaleones producer, Rosy Ocampo, confirmed the news and said it was a tough decision for the actriz. Rumors of Belinda's tumultuous business relationship with her manager parents have been circulating for weeks, but we never thought she'd actually make the split.  Hopefully the family can put this behind them, especially during the holidays!

Looks like we have another novela turned pop star grupo! Eight actors from Camaleones have formed a pop group named, what else, grupo Camaleones. The octet, which does not include Belinda, Alfonso Herrera or Pee Wee are slated to release an album later this month.

We'll have to wait and see whether this group will get close to RBD's success.

What do you think? Will you buy their album? [Latin Gossip]

Pregnancy rumors came spilling in after bella cantactriz Belinda fainted on the set of su telenovela, Camaleones, in which she stars opposite Pee Wee and Alfonso "Poncho" Herrera, last week.

Others attributed el desmayo to her recent break-up con jugador de fútbol, Giovani Dos Santos, after being caught partying with another guy at a nightclub.  That might be more likely, since Camaleones producer, Rosy Ocampo, has now confirmed that Belinda is indeed NOT pregnant.  Menos mal!

Looks like there is life after RBD.  With Anahí's solo single "Mi Delirio" picking up steam and Poncho appearing en la novela Camaleones with Pee Wee and Belinda, the careers of los rebeldes don't seem to be suffering all that much since the demise de la banda.  So what has Dulce María been working on since wrapping up su más reciente telenovela, Verano De Amor?

Dulce María has started working on her debut solo album, and she's got big plans for her upcoming career.  La cantante peliroja recently revealed that she wants her new album to be a reflection of the "real" her.

Definitivamente quiero ser yo, no quiero hacer un disco pretencioso, no quiero hacer un disco que no tenga nada que ver conmigo y que sea comercial. Quiero un disco que hable de mí, de lo que yo quiero expresar, de lo que yo soy, de lo que yo creo.

Y como es la verdadera Dulce María?

Soy como cualquier otra chava de mi edad. Creo que todo lo que quieras lo puedes lograr, siempre y cuando no te dejes llevar por lo que todo el mundo hace o por lo que todo el mundo dice.

Dulce will start recording her first solo album in September.  We already can't wait to hear what she's got in store, but the album won't drop 'til 2010, así que nos tenemos que aguantar in the meantime.

Cuentanos, what do you think about the news of Dulce's upcoming solo album?  Do you think los Rebeldes can cut it as solo artists, or should they have stayed with RBD por siempre? [Quien]
