Estefans Translate And Plan To Re-Record We Are The World In Spanish!

ap091006038383jb.jpg

How exciting and wonderful!

We're thrilled to exclusively reveal that Emilio and Gloria Estefan will be adapting and RE-RECORDING We Are the World in Spanish to help Haiti relief efforts!!

The new version - titled Somos El Mundo - has been completely translated, and original writer Lionel Richie has given his seal of approval and blessing, claiming it captures the spirit and message of the original.

The recording will take place next Friday and a large number of Latin singers, including Ricky Martin, Paulina Rubio, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Enrique Iglesias, Jon Secada, and of course, Gloria Estefan have all been invited to participate!

We sincerely hope they all do!!!

Congratulations are in order for the Estefans for organizing such a wonderful project!!

We can't wait to hear the completed track!!

      Re: Pat MaGroin – "in order to be a productive member of American society, you should know how to speak English." "If he wishes to improve his lot here in America, he should learn the primary language - English."



    3. 103

      so with that, I can only imagine that you are nothing more than a fucking egocentric who thinks that the UNITED STATES owns AMERICA, well I'm glad to tell you that AMERICA is a continent, not your adorable country soo…. "Spanish – spoken by approximately 310 million in many nations throughout the continent.
      English – spoken by approximately 300 million people" with that, YOU are the one who must be speaking spanish, I've been speaking english just so you can understand me, pero de ahora en adelante voy a hablar español ;) (I think you didn't understand that right??? not "productive member of American society" LOL)

      Re: Pat MaGroin – lol, when you get something more…. coherent come back pls, not that shit you write



    8. 108

      Re: chaguita – I love how the emotional response by chaguita is to say that spanish should be the majority language here in America, lol. How do you say "delusional" in spanish. My guess is that the spanish word for "delusional" is "chaguita"



    9. 109

      Re: chaguita – Don't worry chagordo - I'm sure that you create the prettiest nails in the salon.



    10. 110

      Re: chaguita – If you don't think that people should learn the English language while living here, your people will be forever relegated to menial jobs. They are here to serve. I feel bad for you (but on the other hand my lawn looks great!)



    11. 111

      Re: Pat MaGroin – not should be, IS the majority lenguage in america. stop talking shit whitout sense. Write somehting intelligent, like the productive member of American society that you are hahahahahaha and + ha!



    12. 112

      Re: Pat MaGroin – What's the problem?? nothing comes up to your head??? that's your best "response"???



    13. 113

      Re: chaguita – lol "whitout". Is that another spanish word I should learn?



    14. 114

      Re: chaguita – "write somehting intelligent"
      lol, I love spanish irony



    15. 115

      Re: chaguita – "lenguage"? lol, I can almost hear the accent.



    16. 116

      lol… chagordooo??? come on!! you can do it better…. or not



    17. 117

      The next time I foreclose on a spanish person's home (my brother owns a mortgage business, I work for him) I can GUARANTEE a smile.
      Thank you, chagordo for making this American Dream come true.



    18. 118

      Re: chaguita – It looks like you have collapsed like the peso. Nothing back chagordo?



    19. 119

      Re: chaguita – Wow, I have responded 2-to-1 on chagordo's attacks. She has left faster than Speedy Gonzalez. arriba, arriba, andalay, andalay.
      Don't start what you can't finish, pero quunt (French again, sorry)



    20. 120

      Re: chaguita – OK, I'm leaving now. But not without slapping that sticker on chagordo's door that says "Foreclosed" (or "ejecución" for the 310 million she says are in America)
      HA HA HA HA HA HA
      (or as they say in Spanish)
      HA HA HA HA HA HA



    21. 121

      Re: chaguita – lol @chagordo. sustantivo
      Or as they say in America: F-A-I-L
      Looks like you broke a nail. There goes your tip
      tsk tsk



    22. 122

      Re: chaguita – wow chagordo left before I could Remember The Alamo.
      What a worthless POS. Just like the rest. blech



    23. 123

      Re: chaguita – Ahhhh… Let me just relish this win. It feels so good, I am curling my toes. This is better than a spanish spa, I am so relaxed. This chigordo bitch disappeared faster than if I said "Immagracion".
      I bet she doesn't even have her green card, lol. Where is this bitch now? Cowering in a church or popping out a kid, I'm sure. Pero, pero, where are you? Go lick some American ahole, that's what your people are born and bred to do. 310 million tongues licking American aholes to get a dollar, lol.



    24. 124

      Speaking as a Latina I can honestly say, this is going to suck so much ass…



    25. 125

      ummm gary78, unless you're native american you really have no business talking badly about spanish speaking people migrating here since your ancestors/family probably migrated here too

      Re: madonna n1 – bitch only cuz your mom is a third world PROSTITUTE and gave birth to a third world trash like you. that don't mean everyone has to be like your fam.

      madonna wold be a shamed to have a fan like you. i mean i would your always hatting. madonna would probably want to use your face like toilet paper.



    28. 128

      I don't really understand why everybody in the US is so concerned about these people singing in Spanish? The song was recorded to help Haiti, not the US!!!! And 90% of people in Latin America speak Spanish!!



    29. 129

      Re: rickM – TRASHIRA THE QUEEN OF SHIT



    30. 130

      Re: Gary78 – I am from here and i love Spanish and if you have an issue with it you can just cover your ears because we aren't going to stop speaking our language. Its part of "our" culture. sure some migrated to this country while others were hear long before the 13 colonies ever began. Spanish has been here for a very long time and is going to stay. English is the national language in the history of the U.S but not the history of this part of the continent so suck it up "y que tengas un buen dia hasta luego" =)
