Netflix has released the official trailer for its upcoming documentary on the storied Puerto Rican astrologer, Walter Mercado, Mucho Mucho Amor, set to premiere July 8th.

For decades, Mercado was one of the most celebrated figures on Spanish-language television — an extravagant, endlessly positive, gender non-conforming sage who dispensed horoscopes, fortunes and the wisdom of the stars to over 120 million viewers at his peak. “From the moment I was born, I knew that I was not like everybody,” Mercado says in an interview in the trailer. “Everything about me was different.

While the Sundance 2020 market started slow, sales started to pick up late Sunday night with “The Night House” and “Herself,” followed by “Ironbark” and “Uncle Frank” on Monday morning. Since then a handful of documentaries have sold, and Andy Sambert’s “Palm Springs” set a new festival sales record at $17.5 million.

A lot of films selected as part of the festival program also already had distribution in place. Others pre-sold before the festival even began: “The Father,” the documentary “Mucho Mucho Amor” and the midnight thriller “His House” have already found homes. We’ll be updating this list with any additional sales as they come in.

Eduardo Yáñez, the soap opera star who aggressively hit a Univision reporter in the middle of an on-camera interview, apologized publicly last week on the Spanish-language Univision program El Gordo y La Flaca.

The Mexican actor apologized for the incident, which occurred on the red carpet of an event earlier this month in Los Angeles. The mercurial soap opera star, however, emphasized that his apology was meant for the public, not the reporter who probed him about his fraught relationship with his son.

“The truth is that I lost it and I want to ask the public for an apology,...

Rodner Figueroa was fired from Univision after comments he made about Michelle Obama on Wednesday's episode of El Gordo y la Flaca.

Discussing makeup artist Paolo Ballesteros, who earned Internet notoriety for transforming himself into everyone from Kim Kardashian to Dakota Johnson to the First Lady, Figueroa said, "Well, watch out, you know that Michelle Obama looks like she's from the cast of Planet of the Apes, the movie."

His cohosts tried to save the situation, with Lili Estefan asking him, "What are you saying?" and Raul de Molina adding that he thought Obama was very attractive.

Figueroa's termination was announced the next day.

Playing diner owner Han Lee on the ribald 2 Broke Girls, Matthew Moy has one very memorable role on the CBS comedy. That’s mostly because the show’s creators have been criticized for making Han one big stereotype after another: The character speaks with a heavy accent, often doesn’t understand American slang and turns of phrases, and is regularly made fun of for his small stature and clueless nature.

Behind the silly role, however, is Matthew Moy, an actor who, truly, couldn’t be further from who he plays on TV. Moy is very clued into pop culture, which...

Mexican-American singer Jenni Rivera died Sunday in a plane crash in Mexico that left no survivors, HuffPost Voces reports.

Minutes after taking off from the northern city of Monterrey on its way to Toluca, the plane disappeared.

"My queen, we will see each other again soon," the singer's father Pedro Rivera told reporters in Los Angeles, according to HuffPost Voces. "We thought it was a press speculation, we wanted to believe that. But it's true, my daughter is dead."

Mexico's Director of Civil Aviation Alejandro Argudín said the plane had crashed, killing everyone on board, according to El Universal.

"The aircraft was left completely destroyed," Argudín said. "The information we have is that there wasn't a single survivor."

HuffPost Voces contacted Jenni Rivera’s brother Juan, who said the plane had been missing since only a few minutes after taking off at 3:15 a.m. Sunday.

The biggest and sexiest night of the Latin music industry, the 12th Annual Latin Grammy Awards, took place Thursday evening at the Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Stars from across the Latino entertainment world -- from music, TV and film -- sauntered, swayed and strutted along the green carpet for a great night of musical celebration.

As the stars started arriving, Daddy Yankee was perched high-atop a Las Vegas skyscraper lending a surreal opening to the evening as it was just beginning.

Under the stewardship of two of the most important hostesses on Spanish-language television, from Univision, Lourdes Stephen and Giselle Blondet, along with the support of Raul De Molina, the live broadcast began in earnest.

1970's heartthrob and current Hispanic TV dancing sensation , Erik Estrada and Blanca Soto, star of the highest-rated, Spanish-language telenovela were among the first to stride down the carpet.

BeLive – the event that raises much-needed funds for four Colombian non-profit organizations, Give to Colombia, Formula Sonrisas, Genesis Foundation and ArtNexus Foundation – is slated to happen on Thursday, November 17 at The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach, and will be an evening to remember with well-respected and recognizable television personalities and renowned celebrities.

Sofia Vergara will co-chair the 5th Anniversary along with this year’s Chair, style and fashion icon Lauren Santo Domingo. Sofia has been nominated for two Emmy and Golden Globe Awards for her role in the ABC Series “Modern Family,” broadcast in 81 countries around the world. Also joining BeLive is internationally renowned and Latin Grammy Award winner Fonseca.

BeLive will feature personalities such as Raul de Molina, Ilia Calderon, Rodner Figueroa, Jorge Bernal, Vanessa Hauc, Kika Rocha, Catherine Siachoque and Miguel Varoni. In addition, making a special appearance this year will be Felix Sabates and Chip Ganassi, owners of Earnhardt...

Industry veteran Sonya McNair has been named the new head of communications for CBS News, effective immediately. In her new role, Sonya will oversee approximately 48 different departments (including media and talent relations for CBS News, CBS Radio News and the CBS News Polling & Survey Unit) -- but, if there's anyone who can handle the job, it's the feisty McNair. Her resume includes 16 years at ABC News and stints in PR at The New Yorker, Essence Communications and Fox Broadcasting (where she was my downstairs neighbor here at 1211 Sixth Ave.

Latino TV host Raul De Molina was left fearing for his life during a safari trip in South Africa last weekend (12-13Jun10) after his car caught fire and forced him out into the lion enclosure.

The Emmy Award-winning presenter, best known for hosting El Gordo y la Flaca on U.S. channel Univision, is in South Africa covering the ongoing World Cup soccer tournament.

But his attempt to take time out from his busy schedule with a relaxing outing to see the country's wildlife went awry - and ended in a trip to the hospital.

De Molina tells New York Post gossip column Page Six, "The car kept stalling with the lions running freely around. I could see smoke coming out of the hood, and after 15 minutes the car started burning. I knew it was a no-win situation. If I stayed in the car I was going to die, and if I leave, then a lion would eat me. But because of the smoke I had to get out. I thought someone would rescue me, but 30 minutes later I was still waiting. The safari ranger had told me that 10 years ago, a Chinese tourist had got out of his car and was eaten alive."

Luckily the Cuban star was saved from the lions by a South African family who escorted him away from danger in their car.

De Molina was admitted to hospital and treated for smoke inhalation before getting back to work.
