The epic collaboration between todos los mejores artistas del mundo de la música Latina has hit the airwaves.  It's a veritable who's who of Latin music, and all for a great cause -- helping raise funds for Haiti, following January's devastating earthquake.

Who can you spot in the video?  We're kinda digging on the remix portion where Pitbull and Daddy Yankee come in over the electric guitar... and we're dying to know, who is that mystery guitarrista?

Watch the video below, and weigh in -- que te parece la versión en Español?  Cual es tu parte favorita? Who else would you have liked to see in the video?

We're excited about the premiere of 'Somos El Mundo' (i.e. 'We Are The World' en Español) esta noche!  The music video, produced by Emilio Estefan, Quincy Jones and Univision, features an all-star roster of performers, including newly confirmed Ricky Martin, Shakira, Daddy Yankee, Luis Miguel, Gloria Trevi, and Belinda.  Previously announced talent include Aventura, Pitbull, Chayanne, Juanes, Luis Fonsi, Thalia, Paulina Rubio, Tito "El Bambino," Juan Luis Guerra, Taboo of Black Eyed Peas, Jenni Rivera, Gloria Estefan, Alacranes Musical, Pee Wee, y muchos, muchos más!  Can you say Latin Music dream come true?!

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.

El reggaetonero made one lady fan's dreams come true this week, but it's not any kind of fan you would expect.  Tito "El Bambino" reportedly met super-fan Luz Prats, una señora de 90 años(!), who dreamed of meeting el cantante and having him sing "El Amor" to her.

Talk about a Valentine's Day treat!!  La señora, who called Tito her idol, had this to say about her favorite song:

“...esa canción es donde se dice lo que es el amor, cómo llega el amor. La escuché por primera vez en la radio cuando iba para Isabela.”

Tito "El Bambino" assures that his lyrics, though primarily aimed at los jovenes, "son para todo tipo de público."

El cantante también anunció que se encuentra solterito y sin compromisos, and despite any rumors, he will not be dating anyone from the artistic world anytime soon.  He also confirmed that he will be performing at the annual Viña del Mar International Song Festival en Chile este 25 de febrero.

We love that he paid his super-fan a visit and serenaded her!  Que tierno, verdad?  [Ritmo Urbano]

Que que?  Shakira vs. Wisin y Yandel?  De que estamos hablando?

'Tradición' was co-produced by el célebre Joan Sebastian, and the album also features a duet with him llamado "Las Siete," in addition to a collaboration con Marco Antonio Solis llamada "Mi Rechazo." Los dos albums were also released as a special collector's edition double-CD, now available on iTunes and in-stores.  Check out Alejandro Fernandez's e-card for more info on the albums. In addition, Alejandro recently released two singles to support the albums: "Se Me Va La Voz" (una canción pop) y "Estuve" (Regional Mexican), which have been battling it out on the radio and video front.  Watch the videos below, y cuéntanos, which track do you like better?  Do you think Alejandro Fernandez es mejor como cantante de rancheras or he is a bonafide pop estrella?

In these tough times, it can’t be easy being the President of the U.S., but every once in a while… we think it must be nice, Señor Obama!

It's no secret that our Presidente loves him some música, but we're especially glad he's all about getting his Latino groove on! So far, he's had Shakira sing for him, and he's taken on the spotlight himself to sing for Marc Anthony at the CHCI 32nd Annual Awards Gala (it was only Happy Birthday, but it still counts!). We've also heard that Juanes and Olga Tañón will be paying him a visit soon, but the biggest news… drumroll please…

La Casa Blanca will be opening its doors for a special performance by el grupo Aventura, this October 13th! MTV News will be there to get the scoop, so look out for the exclusive coverage on MTV Tr3s!

Does President Obama know how to dance bachata? We can't wait to find out!
