The Latin Madonna performs at New Orleans Jazz Fest
Quote:
NEW ORLEANS — As fans chanted her name Saturday in anticipation of her New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival debut, Mexican pop star Paulina Rubio strutted on stage wielding an electric guitar and sporting tight black shorts, tall black boots and red sunglasses.
“There are a lot of Latin American singers, but not many of this caliber are from Mexico,” said Nancy Alonzo, a Mexican-born fan who moved to New Orleans five years ago. “It means a lot to us that she’s here.”
The massive crowd erupted as Rubio hit the stage and began to perform hit after hit in her native Spanish tongue. Some in the crowd wore sombreros and shook maracas. Many danced, gyrated and took pictures as Rubio sang various songs, the lyrics of which roughly translate to: “Give me another tequila,” ‘’I will do it for you,” and “I want you more each time.”
Eva Grant, a native of Mexico who now lives in Houston, came to the festival with her husband Don and some friends especially to hear Rubio.
“She’s no Britney Spears, she’s Madonna,” Grant said with enthusiasm. “She’s very connected to the Latinos. She pushes herself to be a good example for us. She’s one of the most talented entertainers we have. I love her.”

Yes. I respect anyone who has the ambition to succeed and flourish in a field they have absolutely no skill in.
