It doesn’t seem like Frida fever will ever quite subside. This time it’s Spanish-born Mexican pop star Belinda who’s caught it just in time for her new “En La Obscuridad” (In The Darkness) music video.
Earlier this month, the 23-year-old star wrapped up filming for her upcoming video for the new single. The video, co-directed by Belinda and Daniel Shain, was shot in several locations around Mexico City, including the National Museum of Art (Munal), and incorporates the singer’s idea of “mexican chic.”
“I think Mexico is a country with a very rich culture that has unique textures and colors,” Belinda wrote to The Huffington Post in an e-mail. “And I’ve always wanted to show this in a music video, but I hadn’t had the chance.”

Like many of my Dominican friends, we were glued to the premiere of MTV’s Washington Heights last night. The introductory images, the landmarks, the legendary George Washington bridge, got us all sentimental and reminiscing about our childhood. It was our hood—good or bad—and it was the place that shaped me.
I was born and raised there. My circle of close friends are all from Washington Heights—aka Dominican Heights in uptown Manhattan. We all share a special bond similar to the group of friends in the reality series Washington Heights.
This is “one of the true neighborhoods left in Manhattan,” says Jonathan “Jp” Perez and “Audubon”—the group’s peacekeeper and the show’s producer—in the introduction, but I was disappointed not to see some of those true and unique aspects of this vibrant community. It was missing the authentic “Dominicanness” that characterizes the neighborhood and...

Madrid -- Daniel Monzon's prison drama "Cell 211" walked away the grand winner at the 24th Goya Awards ceremony with eight statues, including the top categories, Sunday night after a close head-to-head battle with Alejandro Amenabar's epic film "Agora."

And though tongues started wagging early in the evening that Cruz and beau Javier Bardem finally made a public appearance together by sitting side-by-side at the ceremony, the big event of the evening was undoubtedly Pedro Almodovar's surprise appearance to award the best film award -- marking a new peace with the Spanish...
