August 31, 200717 yr Como ama una mujer her latest album still #1 on the top selling spanish albums in U.S selling more than 800,000 copies and it was #1 on the latin billboard chart for 5 weeks and #10 on billboard top 100 albums and her single QUE HICISTE has become a major hit in Italy,Switzerland,Greece and U.S Latin, where it peaked at #1, and Spain,where it has sold more than 260,000 ringtones and more than 120,000 digital downloads...Que Hiciste was the first song to reach #1 on TRL. can't belive that they didn't nominate her. BUT they did nominate Beyonce,who doesn't know Spanish,WHO IS NOT LATIN. shame.
August 31, 200717 yr I like Ricky Martin, but his Unplugged album doesn't deserve a Grammy for Album of the Year, "Tu Recuerdo" shouldn't win for Record of the Year. But Ricky should win a Grammy for Best Male Pop Vocal Album, that would be nice.
