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]

One of the greatest nights in Latin music came alive with a spectacular three-stage opening performance featuring Chayanne, Thalía and Alejandro Fernández who sang some of their most recent hits as well as long time favorites.

Reggaeton king Daddy Yankee surprised everyone with one of the biggest productions of the night set against a virtual, futuristic backdrop that included a special lightning effect for the live, blowout premiere of his latest single “Descontrol.”

While bachata group Aventura mesmerized the audience as they flew through the arena on top of a bridge for their medley performance of “Su Veneno” and the live premiere of “Dile al Amor.”

Pop diva Paulina Rubio performed an exclusive remix of her most recent hit “Ni Rosas Ni Juguetes,” which was broadcast with a special black and white effect, only seen by viewers at home, resembling an old wild-west movie.

Additional performances included:  Héctor “El Torito” Acosta's “Sin Perdón” with Colombian duo Jorge Celedón and Jimmy Zambrano,  Paquita la Del Barrio sang “Rata de Dos Patas”;  Nelly Furtado’s crossover performance of “Manos al Aire,” pop artist Pee Wee’s performance of a special mix of his hit “Quédate”; Jenni Rivera’s performance of “Ya Lo Sé"; the live debut of Tito “El Bambino’s” new single “Te Pido Perdón”; Alejandro Fernández and Chayanne performed their respective hits “Se Me Va La Voz” and “Me Enamoré de Ti”; and a fantastic closing number by Puerto Rican merengue group Grupo Manía which brought the audience to its feet.

We previously reported Emilio Estefan's plan to create a version of "We Are The World" in Spanish, and tomorrow in a Miami recording studio, he'll do just that. 

  

This is the first time the 25 year old track has been recorded in Spanish and all proceeds will benefit Haitian relief efforts. While the talent roster for the recording hasn't been announced as of yet, Thalia and Chayanne are rumored to be on board, and of course, we know Gloria will lend her stellar vocals to the remake. MTV Tr3s will be on site at the event, and we'll have a full recap right here on the blog so make sure you check back!

Are you excited to hear "We Are The World" en espanol? We definitely are!

Thalia's second single off her wildly popular LIVE album, Thalia en Primera Fila, hit radio stations this week to nationwide praise.

 

Thalia  captivated her loyal listeners, as well as new audiences, with the first ballad from the LP, Equivocada, which reached the top spot in radio both nationally and internationally. But Thalia started the new year strong by romancing fans with her second single, Qué será de ti, a song that was originally popularized by master singer/songwriter Roberto Carlos.  This classic has acquired a brand new sound thanks to Thalia; she has completely made it her own!

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??

With her new single, "Equivocada," Thalía is paying homage to all those who have made a mistake en sus vidas -- be it en el amor, en la vida, in their professional life or otherwise.  We can certainly sympathize con eso!

We recently sat down con la bella cantante Mexicana to get the scoop on algunas preguntitas we had lying around.  Here's what she had to say!

Por muy famosa que sea, Thalía knows all about being wrong de vez en cuando. We also asked her about this whole "being famous" thing, and Thalía had some choice consejos para los chavos seeking fama.

Ever want to have dinner at Thalía's house? "Forget it!" Watch the clip below to see why you might want to rethink being a dinner guest en la casa Mottola.

Last night, the White House became La Casa Blanca y nuestro Presidente brought out even more of his Latino side than he has already... At least that was the running joke from George Lopez, Eva Longoria Parker, and Jimmy Smits that started off the "Fiesta Latina" showcase last night.

The event not only hosted amazing Latino figures (including the first Hispanic to sit on the Supreme Court, Justice Sonia Sotomayor), it was really a celebration of our culture y nuestra música. Obama spoke about the global appeal of our ritmo Latino, and how all cultures can tune into it. Some of those bringing down the house were Gloria Estefan, José Feliciano, and Los Premios nominees for Best MTV Tr3s Artist, Aventura, among others. But our favorite performance came from Thalía who asked President Obama to dance with her and called him "Machooo!" Love it!  Watch the clip of Obama dancing with Thalía here!

The grand finale had all the celebs on stage together, dancing to Gloria Estefan's "Mi Tierra." A perfect end to an amazing night. Stay tuned to MTV News for exclusive coverage.

Esta fiesta no se acaba! We just got word that even more super estrellas have been added to the roster of performers at the White House.

President Obama has not only invited the kings of bachata, Aventura, and our royal boricua couple Marc Anthony & Jennifer Lopez, he's also turning the party out a la Mexicana, with pop sensation Thalía! Que emoción!

Other invited Latinos include George Lopez, Jimmy Smits, José Feliciano, y Los Lobos, entre algunos. Remember to stay tuned to MTV Tr3s to get all the exclusive MTV News coverage of this Hispanic Heritage Month event! [Quien]

"Queen of All Media" Perez Hilton is known for making some very risky fashion choices, so we were not surprised to see him in this month's People en Español "Los Mejor y Peor Vestidos" issue.  Lo que sí nos sorprende is seeing this post on his blog in which he states "Perezito has been chosen for the "Best Dressed" issue of the new People en Español."  Umm... does he need a better translator or does nuestro favorito chismoso cubano really expect us to believe que no entiende español?

Come on Perezito, de verdad crees que uno de estos crazy get-ups deserves the title of "Mejor Vestido"?  In fact, People en Español says el bloguero "tiene probablemente el gusto más cuestionable de la historia."  Not much of a compliment in our book!

So who did make the best-dressed list?  Topping la lista está la muy elegante primera dama, Michelle Obama, followed by Salma Hayek, Eva Longoria Parker y Thalía.  Tu sabes, some ladies with real style!

So, who do you think has el mejor estilo?  [People en Español; Perez Hilton]
