So Kat DeLuna’s newest single, “Calling You,” recently landed in my inbox, complete with a sultry photo of the dominicana pop singer and promises of a “new album coming soon.”I’m sure you can imagine my excitement when this email plopped onto my computer screen–after all, I’ve been gushing about Kat since last summer, and she […]

Last night, Sam and I had dinner at the lovely Mermaid Inn. The convo turned to relationships and I asked him if he had ever dumped anyone between slurps of oysters.
“Me? Nah,” replied Sam as he nibbled on crispy clams.
“Que?” I said with exasperation. “You never dumped anyone at all? That means you’re totally […]

Not to look a gorgeous cover in the mouth, but America Ferrera is wearing some pretty ferosh burgundy lipstick on the cover of August’s BlackBook magazine. Frankly, I’m digging it. Never mind that most media outlets try so hard to prove this Ugly Betty isn’t really ugly (helloo, it’s called acting; costume, wardrobe, the whole […]

Oh, Mariah. What would this world be like Without You? We’d be a beautiful Butterfly short of blissful; a bee without our golden Honey. One Sweet Day you’ll no longer be with us, but, thankfully, that day hasn’t come. This scenario is merely a Fantasy; you’ll Always be our Baby; our mini-dress-wearing, slightly cheesy, forever […]

Hola chicas! It’s day two of Cover Critique Week here at Color Me Glam, and today we’re coveting Penelope Cruz’s smoldering glam-next-door look on August’s W magazine.

Hola chicas! I am so very excited to begin my first ‘Cover Critique Week’ here at Color Me Glam! Not only am I psyched to dish on the makeup, fashion and overall images, but I’m most proud to say that between the months of August and September, we have five fabulous Latinas gracing the covers […]

Never thought we’d see the day when a Cuban MC would blast President Bush, but here it is. Pitbull’s finally dropped his first single since his label, TVT Records, went bankrupt, and it’s guaranteed to turn heads. Listen to “American War,” in which the party-anthem stalwart suddenly turns political with rhymes dissing the current occupants […]

Hola everyone!
I am currently in the motherland – Puerto Rico with my friend James Brown (no, not the James Brown, he’s totally dead). Our flight was like this:

My people were very excited to leave be leaving the island of Manhattan for the much sunnier, more beautiful one of PR! But instead of chilling on the […]

Hola chicas! I’m always, always on the hunt for a fabulous lip balm. And I love many, but I’m not in love with any one. So please, leave me a little note here and let me know of your favorite so I can try it. In the meantime, if you’re in the market for […]

You’ve all probably heard of Karina Pasian by now, right? The just-turned 17-year-old dominicana who’s got Quincy Jones for a godfather and had Diddy and Jay-Z fighting to sign her? Well if you haven’t, it’s time to give her a good listen. Raised in Washington Heights and co-managed by her father and hermano, Karina has […]
