Five Latino Musical Legends in the Making!

What makes someone a legend? Is it the fact that their red carpet appearances send journalists into a frenzy? Is it their onstage presence? Is it someone whose voice is so incredible that it has the power to cast a spell over millions of people? Or maybe it's their rockstar swagger? The answer is all of the above. There are countless Latino superstars: Gloria Estefan, Ricky Martin, Shakira and Selena Quintanilla — who was taken away from us way too soon. But what about the next generation?

Here are five Latino musical legends in the making:

Bruno Mars, 25

Mars is an appropriate name for this Hawaii native's astronomical musical talents! At just 25, the singer — whose music dominates the airwaves — has already shown that he can be a hitmaker as well as a songwriter and producer. Bruno co-wrote the hooks for three huge hits: “Nothin’ on You” by B.o.B, “Billionaire" by Travie McCoy, and "Forget You" by Cee Lo Green. But he's also the voice of his own hits, including the soulful love songs "Just the Way You Are" and "Grenade." One of the most brilliant things about Bruno as an artist is the eclectic range of musical genres he blends together — Motown, reggae, R&B, hip-hop, and pop. Bruno's rise to stardom didn't happen overnight; as a child he would impersonate musical legends like Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson. We wonder if he ever knew he'd be one, too!

Natalia Jimenez, 29

The daughter of a Spanish father (who was also a singer) and a Portuguese mother, Natalia rose to fame as the effervescent lead singer of the Spanish pop band, La 5ª Estación. After completing four studio albums with the group (the last one, Sin Frenos, dropped in 2009 and received the Grammy award for Best Latin Pop Album in 2010), Natalia did what many superstars (Ricky Martin, Fergie) have done before her: she left the group to fly solo. Not only does Natalia have the backing of Sony behind her; she's also being mentored by Gloria and Emilio Estefan in the studio, as she readies her English debut album for the summer of 2011. And while you may love the sound of Natalia on the Spanish version of Ricky Martin's current hit, "The Best Thing About Me is You," we promise you that you're about to be blown away!

Diego Boneta, 20

Although he’s had recurring roles on hit teen dramas like 90210 and Pretty Little Liars — and got his start in the Mexican soap opera Rebelde — Diego considers himself first and foremost a singer. And with a voice like his we can see why! Already a big deal in South America, the Mexican-born singer released his first Spanish album Diego under EMI Music in 2005, and in 2007, he re-released the album singing all of the songs in Portuguese for an edition that sold over 100,000 copies in Brazil alone. He also sings in English, is easy on the eyes, plays several instruments, and writes most of his own songs! As if that weren't enough, Boneta—who memorably serenaded our readers with Jose Feliciano's "Feliz Navidad"— has just been cast in the highly anticipated movie-musical "Rock of Ages," starring Tom Cruise and Alec Baldwin!

Esperanza Spalding, 26

Sure, she beat Justin Bieber for Best New Artist at this year's Grammys (making her the first Jazz artist to win the award), but that's not why we think Esperanza is one of the next big ones. Best known as a jazz bassist and singer, Esperanza is a multi-instrumentalist who taught herself how to play the violin at the age of five! At 15, she was already a concertmaster. She also plays the piano, clarinet, violin, oboe and bass, and sings in three languages: English, Spanish and Portugese. Her 2010 album, Chamber Music Society, hit No. 1 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz Albums chart in 2011, and she recently wrapped a tour with Prince. Plus, the most important man in the free world, President Barack Obama, is a fan. Unlike the Bieber fever, there's no cure for our love of Esperanza!

Demi Lovato, 18

Most Disney stars don't inspire rappers like Timbaland to write songs specifically for them, but then, Demi Lovato isn't your typical Disney star. While she was in rehab getting treatement for physical and emotional issues, Timbaland created a  YouTube video and sent Demi this message: "Demi, I'm so ... I'm sitting here looking. Man, I'm just like, 'Wow.' You are amazing, girl." Timbaland isn't the only one who thinks Demi is brilliant. According to Disney, the part-Mexican actress/singer, who stars on the network's hit show Sonny With a Chance,  has the highest grossing album sales worldwide within the Hollywood Records family—thanks to her albums Don't Forget (2008) and Here We Go Again (2009). Both albums debuted at #2 and #1, respectively, on the Billboard 200. Superstar? We think so.

EXCLUSIVE: A Few of Our Brightest Stars Under 25!

Génesis Rodriguez, 23

When you’re the daughter of legendary Venezuelan singer and actor El Puma, you’re bound to attack stardom with ferocity. And sure enough, Rodriguez has quickly leapt from telenovelas to Hollywood. After an upcoming stint on Entourage, she’ll appear opposite Will Ferrell, Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna in the comedy Casa de Mi Padre, and with Sam Worthington in the action flick Man on a Ledge.

Bruno Mars, 25

Until recently, you couldn’t turn a radio dial without hearing Mars’s megahit “Just the Way You Are.” Born Peter Gene Hernandez to Puerto Rican and Filipino parents, the seven-time Grammy nominee also cowrote others’ chart-toppers, like Flo Rida’s “Right Round” and Cee Lo Green’s “F--- You.”

Dora the Explorer

It’s hard to overstate Dora’s impact: For more than a decade, she’s taught millions of kids how to problem-solve, the importance of friendship and family, and even some Spanish skills. Best of all, her brown skin and culture are not the point of her animated show, but part of the background, making her as American as apple (or guava!) pie.

Jasmine Villegas, 17

Buzz, buzz, buzz! Mexican-and-Filipino Villegas has plenty of it, thanks to a scorching single, “All These Boys,” released last fall, a rumored romance with Justin Bieber (whose tour she joined in September) and a collaboration with the Jonas brothers.

Prince Royce, 21

As bachata kings Aventura ponder breaking up, there’s someone more than ready to take their crown. We’re referring, of course, to Bronx-born dominicano Geoffrey Royce Rojas, whose bilingual self-titled debut showcases silky-smooth vocals and savvy songs (including the irresistible “Stand By Me” remake and “Corazón Sin Cara”) that signal the genre’s future.

Joan Smalls, 22

She may hail from the Puerto Rican town of Hatillo, but the modeling newbie already has a globe-trekking career. Smalls got her break last year after being featured as the exclusive model for Givenchy’s fall couture show in Paris, and then walked the runway for 40 top designers. Her It Girl status was recently cemented with an Estée Lauder contract.

Miguel, 24

His sexy voice and style gets right under your skin, leading Billboard to gush that the half-Mexican smoothie “offers both the sweetness of Babyface and the passion of R. Kelly.” Could Miguel be our first bonafide Latino R&B superstar since Maxwell?

Mark Sanchez, 24

Ever since signing a hefty $50 million contract with the NFL two years ago, the New York Jets quarterback has kept cool under pressure. In 2010, despite recovering from knee surgery, he posted his first career 300-yard passing game, emerging as a new kind of all-American athlete: a third-generation Mexican American profoundly proud of his roots.

Maya Gabeira,23

This big wave rider first hit the water as a way to refocus her life after being kicked out of home as a rebellious teen. Now the brasileña is a top female surfer and a four-time winner of the Billabong XXL Women’s Overall Performance Award. Not one to shy away from a challenge, she recently rode a 45-footer, setting the record for largest wave ever tackled by a woman.

Rafael Nadal, 24

The Spanish cutie dominated men’s pro tennis in 2010, when he became the seventh man to ever score a career Grand Slam by winning the French Open, Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. That was after experts said his knee problems would cut his career short. But as anyone who’s ever seen him play knows, knees have nothing to do with it: Nadal is all about heart.

Heather Hemmens, 22

To simply say that half–Costa Rican Hemmens is on the CW series Hellcats misses the full scope of her work. She’s directed and produced two short films, and intends to succeed both behind and in front of the camera. Ambitious? Yes, but then again, Hemmens has been on this path ever since attending a performing arts high school on a full scholarship.

Is Mexican Band Camila Breaking Up?

Mexican band Camila won three Latin Grammys, a Premios Lo Nuestro award and has generally acheived a phenomenal level of success since the release of their debut studio albumTodo Cambio. So why would therock group decide to break up at the peak of their career?

We all know the scenario: One member of a popular band decides to release his own album, and soon the whole group implodes. Though Camila’s camp is denying all breakup rumors, many in the music world are speculating that frontman Mario Domm’s solo debut may mean the end for the popular Mexican rockers.

Without the talents of Mario Domm, Camila would be in some serious trouble. As one of the main vocalists and the writer of nearly all their hit ballads, his participation has been essential to the band’s success.

Now, feeling the need to branch out beyond the trio of himself, Samo and Pablo Hurtado, Mario has confirmed that he’s in the middle of finishing up his first solo release. Scheduled to come out by 2012, Domm’s new album is guaranteed to stir up plenty of interest. Not just for its songs, but for some possible heartfelt lyrics about that failed romance with Belinda.


In addition ,Rumor has it that the group’s lead singer, Mario Domm told fellow band members Samo Parra and Pablo Hurtado that he wants to explore a solo career. Domm has denied the rumors telling the press, “We were on tour and now we’re going to Europe. We have concerts scheduled in Italy, Spain and France. We have no time to think about separating.”

But a source close to Domm’s ex, singer Belinda, says the group has already scheduled a date for their separation and are waiting for their world tour to end to make the official announcement. The source claims that Domm has even started working on his first album with hopes to release it next year.

Domm continues to deny the persistent rumors, “Other artists want to be in the position that the public has put us. At the moment we are very happy with the results that we have.”

As much as we’d like to eventually see the talented singer pursue a solo career, for now we’d like to hear what else Camila has in store!
