										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="has-text-align-right has-medium-font-size">By Bel Hernandez Castillo</p>



<p><em>CLIKA</em> officially premiered this weekend and with it arrived a cultural moment that feels less like a debut and more like a coronation. Produced by <strong>Jimmy Humilde</strong>—the visionary CEO behind Rancho Humilde—and released by Columbia Pictures and Sony Music Vision, the feature film represents a rare and powerful convergence of Latino music, storytelling, and studio confidence.</p>



<p>At a time when Latino audiences continue to drive box office results while remaining underserved in screen time, <em>CLIKA</em> arrives with built-in cultural capital: the sound, the artists, and the lived experience of Mexican American youth whose music has already proven its ability to mobilize millions.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>From Compton to Columbia Pictures</strong></h3>



<p>Jimmy Humilde’s path to a Sony-backed theatrical release did not begin in Hollywood boardrooms—it began in the streets of Compton and on streaming platforms where Rancho Humilde rewrote the rules of Mexican music. As the architect of the <em>corridos tumbados</em> movement, Humilde transformed a once-marginalized sound into a global phenomenon, launching superstars like <strong>Fuerza Regida, Junior H, Natanael Cano</strong>, and others who now dominate charts and touring circuits.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo-683x1024.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-85403" style="aspect-ratio:0.6669871061264973;width:376px;height:auto" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo-200x300.jpeg 200w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo-768x1151.jpeg 768w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo-585x877.jpeg 585w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Humilde-Photo.jpeg 800w" sizes="(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sub>Writer/Producer Jimmy Humilde (Photo: Self)</sub></figcaption></figure>



<p>That success did not go unnoticed.</p>



<p>Sony Music Latin, already deeply embedded in the evolution of Latin music, recognized that Rancho Humilde wasn’t just producing hits—it was shaping culture. With Sony Music Vision expanding into narrative storytelling, the alignment became inevitable. <em>CLIKA</em> is the first feature film born from that shared understanding: that Latino music is not a niche, but a mass-market force capable of driving audiences into theaters.</p>



<p>As <strong>Sanford Panitch</strong>, President of Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group, noted, Humilde’s musical impact naturally opened the door to new kinds of stories and stars. This was not a gamble—it was an expansion.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Music as the Engine, Story as the Heart</strong></h3>



<p>Directed by <strong>Michael Greene</strong> and executive produced by Humilde alongside partners <strong>Jose “JB” Becerra</strong> and <strong>Roque “Rocky” Venegas</strong>, <em>CLIKA</em> centers on an aspiring musician fighting to preserve his family’s legacy. The story mirrors the lived realities of many Rancho Humilde fans—ambition, loyalty, survival, and the tension between tradition and reinvention.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="375" height="450" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Jay-Dee.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-85440" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Jay-Dee.jpeg 375w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Jay-Dee-250x300.jpeg 250w" sizes="(max-width: 375px) 100vw, 375px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sub>Actor/Comedian Jay Dee (Photo: Sony Pictures)</sub></figcaption></figure>



<p>Starring Rancho Humilde artist <strong>Jay Dee</strong>, the film blurs the line between fiction and cultural truth, using music not as background but as narrative engine. This is where <em>CLIKA</em> holds particular power: Latino audiences already emotionally invested in the sound now see that sound reflected on screen, legitimized by a major studio release.</p>



<p>For Sony, the film represents a strategic bridge between music and film audiences. For Latino viewers, it’s representation rooted in authenticity rather than translation.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>A Strategic Bet on Latino Buying Power</strong></h3>



<p>The timing of <em>CLIKA</em>’s release underscores a broader industry reality: Latino audiences consistently over-index in theatrical attendance, particularly for culturally resonant films. Rancho Humilde’s fan base—young, bilingual, digitally native, and fiercely loyal—represents the exact demographic Hollywood is chasing but rarely centers.</p>



<p>By backing <em>CLIKA</em>, Sony is not simply releasing a film—it is validating a business model where Latino music ecosystems can successfully migrate into film and television. As <strong>Alex Gallardo</strong>, President of Sony Music US Latin, stated, the moment Sony learned about the project, they knew they wanted in—and that Columbia Pictures was the ideal partner to bring it to life.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>“We’re Leading the Conversation Now”</strong></h3>



<p>For Humilde, today’s premiere is both personal and political. “We’ve been grinding in the background,” he said, “but now we’re stepping into the spotlight.” His message is clear: <em>CLIKA</em> is not an endpoint, but the opening chapter of a larger creative pipeline for Mexican American storytellers.</p>



<p>With a cast that includes <strong>Cristian “Concrete” Gutierrez, DoKnow, Laura Lopez, OhGeesy, Eric Roberts, Master P</strong>, and <strong>Peter Greene</strong>, and a production team spanning film and music veterans, <em>CLIKA</em> positions itself as a proof of concept—one that blends commercial appeal with cultural specificity.</p>

</div></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>The Beginning of a New Lane</strong></h3>



<p>As <em>CLIKA</em> premieres today, it does so carrying more than box office expectations. It carries the weight—and promise—of a movement that has already reshaped music and is now testing Hollywood’s willingness to follow where culture leads.</p>



<p>If Rancho Humilde changed the sound of Mexican music, <em>CLIKA</em> may well signal the next evolution: Latino-led studios, Latino-driven audiences, and stories that no longer ask for permission.</p>



<p>And if today’s premiere is any indication, the audience is already there—waiting, listening, and ready to show up.<strong><em>CLIKA</em> Premieres January 23, Marking Jimmy Humilde’s Bold Leap From Corridos to Cinema</strong></p><p>The post <a href="https://latinheat.com/clika-premiere-marks-jimmy-humildes-bold-leap-from-corridos-to-cinema/">‘CLIKA’ Premiere Marks Jimmy Humilde’s Bold Leap From Corridos to Cinema</a> first appeared on <a href="https://latinheat.com"></a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

<figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="736" height="1024" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios-736x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-84916" style="width:283px;height:auto" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios-736x1024.jpg 736w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios-216x300.jpg 216w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios-768x1068.jpg 768w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios-585x814.jpg 585w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-3ios.jpg 800w" sizes="(max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sub>Bolero Soul (Photo: <strong>Brandee Allen &#8211; The Ford</strong>)</sub></figcaption></figure>



<p>There’s something magical about boleros—the romantic lyrics, the gentle strum of guitars, and those unforgettable harmonies that wrap around your heart. The <em>Boleros de Noche</em> performances<em> </em>presented as part of LA Phil’s 2026 summer season at The Ford, felt like a true homecoming.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This year’s lineup started off with the dynamic ensemble <strong>Arturo and Jose Luis</strong> of <strong>Bolero Soul</strong>, delivering a heartfelt tribute to the golden era of romantic Latin music. It was followed up by the reunion of <strong>La Marisoul</strong> with <strong>Los Hermanos Carlos</strong>, making for a powerhouse bolero trio.  La Marisoul delivers vocals that drip with heartache, longing, and love, while the Carlos brothers’ harmonies wrap around her like a warm summer breeze. The crowd didn’t just watch—they <em>felt</em> it, often singing along, swaying in their seats, and cheering in between every heart-tugging verse.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="683" height="1024" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Bolero-Duo-one-683x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-84911" style="width:311px;height:auto"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sub>One of <strong>Los Hermanos Carlos</strong> (Photo by: Brandee Allen &#8211; The Ford)</sub></figcaption></figure>



<p>La Marisoul, best known as the powerhouse vocalist of La Santa Cecilia began her career singing boleros.  “That’s the root of what I sing—traditional boleros and rancheras,&#8221; she explains. &#8220;I learned from the musicians that played at restaurants on Olvera Street.”  She is a Grammy Award winning artist who credits her songs as being inspired by life, love, heartbreak and the drunken rants of the neighborhood.</p>



<p>It was clear that for many, boleros are more than music—they’re memories. The Ford was a perfect backdrop for this concert, with palm trees lit in vivid hues framing the stage, the hillside seating enveloping the audience in a close shared beautiful sensory experience of sight and sounds. </p>



<p>While the bolero’s origins trace back to 18th-century Spain and Cuba, it was Mexico that truly made the genre its own, becoming a cultural epicenter for its evolution. Many of us grew up hearing the voices of <strong>Los Panchos,</strong> <strong>Pedro Infante</strong>, or <strong>Javier Solís</strong> serenade generations with their soulful bolero renditions. <em>Boleros De Noche</em> at The Ford Theater brought that timeless sound back to life, creating an unforgettable night of music, nostalgia, and connection that felt both deeply personal and universally moving.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1-768x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-84905" style="width:274px;height:auto" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1-768x1025.jpg 768w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1-110x147.jpg 110w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1-585x780.jpg 585w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Boleros-at-The-ford-1.jpg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sub>(Photo: Latin Heat Ent.)</sub></figcaption></figure>



<p><em>Boleros De Noche</em>, now a yearly tradition at the Ford, began in 2015 with a mission to preserve the bolero tradition and create a space to keep the tradition alive. They moved to The Ford in 2018  and are now celebrating their 9th year at this venue.  <em>Boleros De Noche</em> has evolved from a small grassroots concert series into a major cultural event. </p>



<p>This year’s LA Phil summer season at The Ford runs through October 31st, features everything from retro cinema, hip-hop and poetry to mariachi legends and cutting-edge dance of all genres.  <em>Boleros De Noche</em> at The Ford proves that great programming doesn’t need to be big and flashy to be powerful. It just needs to be authentic. And this show? It absolutely was.</p>

<p>The joy of summer events &#8212; <strong>The Ford </strong>invites you to three nights that will lift your spirits after some trying times in the City of Los Angeles. </p>



<p>This summer, the <strong>LA Phil</strong> presents <em>Mexican Nights</em>—a soulful three-part concert series that celebrates the music, dance, and traditions that have shaped generations and are woven into the cultural fabric of Los Angeles. Under the stars at <strong>The Ford</strong>, audiences will be transported on a journey through the romance of boleros, the power of mariachi, and the vibrant artistry of folklórico dance.</p>



<p>Presented by the LA Phil as part of its 2025 Latin Music Concert Series, <em>Mexican Nights</em> invites fans on a journey through the beloved sounds of boleros, the powerful legacy of mariachi, and the colorful cultural expressions of Mexican wedding serenades and folkloric dance.</p>



<p><strong>AUG 2: Boleros de Noche – A Reunion of the Heart</strong><br>For over two decades, <em>Marisoul y Los Hermanos Carlos</em> have serenaded L.A. with the timeless magic of bolero. What began as intimate performances at Placita Olvera has blossomed into a musical legacy. Now, for one unforgettable evening, they reunite to fill the night air with love songs that speak straight to the soul.</p>



<p><strong>AUG 7: Leyendas del Mariachi – Icons on One Stage</strong><br>A historic gathering of mariachi’s greatest artists from ensembles like <em>Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán</em>, <em>Los Camperos</em>, and <em>Mariachi América de Jesús Rodríguez de Hijar</em> promises an electrifying night of heritage and artistry. This is a rare opportunity to witness legends unite in celebration of Mexico’s beloved musical treasure.</p>



<p><strong>AUG 16: Serenatas y Bodas de México – A Tapestry of Tradition</strong><br><em>Grandeza Mexicana Folk Ballet Company</em>, joined by <em>Teocalli Ballet Folklórico</em> and <em>Mariachi Tesoro de San Fernando</em>, brings to life the colorful wedding traditions of Mexico through music, dance, and storytelling. The evening closes with the world premiere of a piece honoring Oaxaca’s <em>Muxes</em>—a powerful celebration of gender diversity in Zapotec culture.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="has-medium-font-size"><em>Ainadamar at </em>LA OPERA April 26, through May 18<sup>th</sup>&nbsp;</p>



<p class="has-text-align-right">By Judi Jordon for LATIN HEAT</p>



<p>In Spain, the legacy of poet, playwright and political martyr <strong>Federico García Lorca </strong>(1898–1936) is ever-present—etched into the hearts of artists across generations. Liberal, openly gay, and vocal supporter of the Spanish Republic, Lorca was executed without trial by firing squad at the Andalusian natural spring, Ainadamar; Arabic for “Fountain of Tears”.&nbsp;Lorca’s physical body was never found but his magnificent work; poetry, drama, and prose includes over a dozen major plays, including the iconic <em>Blood Wedding </em>(1933), <em>Yerma</em> (1934), and <em>The House of Bernarda Alba </em>(1936)—a trilogy that delves into themes of repression, honor, and female agency in Andalusian society. His poetry “<em>Gypsy Ballads” </em>(1928) and &#8220;<em>Poet in New York</em>&#8221; (published posthumously in 1940) deftly blend Gitano and modern concepts, with symbolism, passion and Andalusian visions.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Lorca’s Spanish romanticism and avant-garde surrealism are an integral force in 20th-century literature. A perfect subject for OPERA as song and dance were such a huge part of Lorca’s life canvas. Today his tragic end has a chilling resonance, one felt profoundly in L.A. OPERA’S masterful production of <em>Ainadamar</em>. And there was only one man to translate this legacy into dance <strong>Antonio Najarro</strong>.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Much-awarded, the delightful Najarro is a notorious perfectionist and Mr. 110%. “When auditioning dancers he looks for the ‘complete package’ and may see 500 dancers to find just one that can fluidly execute his unique vision; in <em>Ainadamar</em> that translates to ballet, flamenco and modern dance, all seamlessly woven into the narrative.&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="595" height="765" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/OUTUMURO-8.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-84650" style="width:513px;height:auto" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/OUTUMURO-8.jpeg 595w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/OUTUMURO-8-233x300.jpeg 233w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/OUTUMURO-8-585x752.jpeg 585w" sizes="(max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sup>(Photo Courtesy: OUTOMURO)</sup></figcaption></figure>



<p>For Spanish superstar, choreographer and former director of Ballet National of Spain, Antonio Najarro, Lorca’s work isn’t merely an influence; it’s a spiritual force, a cultural flame that continues to inspire across borders and mediums. After an impressively smooth tech rehearsal in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, perfectionist Najarro took a breath and a break to share his passion for Lorca, teamwork, crafting unforgettable dance, and what drives him to the edge.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Collaborating with conductor <strong>Lina González-Granados</strong> on <em>Ainadamar</em>, Najarro found an ideal partner—open, intuitive, and rhythmically attuned to flamenco’s complex timing. “It’s not easy for an orchestra to follow flamenco,” he says. “But Lina embraced every challenge. She loves dance, and that makes everything easier.”<br><br>“Every artist in Spain, at some point, ‘touches’ Lorca,” Najarro says. “We are always speaking about him—his poetry, his thinking. He left his message open to interpretation. You can do many versions of his poems, and I love that.” Najarro recently returned from a sold-out run in Madrid with his namesake dance company’s critically acclaimed production, <em>Romance Sonámbulo</em> at Teatro MIRA de Pozuelo de Alarcón in Madrid, inspired by one of Lorca’s most haunting poems.&nbsp;</p>



<p>For <em>Ainadamar</em> Najarro leans into Lorca’s dreamlike mysticism, crafting a spiritual, non-terrestrial piece that seduces audiences through night, moonlight, and mystery. “It’s not traditional,” he explains. “It’s something deeper—more emotional, more expressive.”</p>



<p>Najarro’s undeniable artistry incorporates and punctuates the subtle and surreal tone perfectly as <em>Ainadamar</em> portrays Lorca’s final days and his impassioned yet doomed relationship with actress <strong>Margarita Xirgu</strong>. </p>



<p>Directed by Brazilian choreographer <strong>Deborah Colker</strong>, the opera has traveled from Glasgow and Detroit to the Metropolitan Opera and now to Los Angeles. “This opera is not only about Lorca’s life—it’s about emotion,” Najarro says.  “The singers dance, the dancers act, everything is expression.”</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/AN_QUERENCIA_F08_3011-SMaller.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-84652" style="width:427px;height:auto"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><sup>(Photo Courtesy: Roberto Sastre)</sup></figcaption></figure>



<p>Expression is the engine of Najarro’s philosophy—tempered always by rigorous technique. Whether it&#8217;s flamenco, ballet, or contemporary dance, his performers are required to master diverse movement styles with both precision and passion. “For my company, dancers must be very versatile,” he explains. “My choreography is elegant, technical, but it must also be pure. I need their footwork, their castanet technique—it’s like playing an instrument.” Working in harmony with Grammy-winning composer <strong>Osvaldo Golijov</strong>, Najarro emphasized the importance of understanding the emotional reasoning behind each composition.<br><br>Instrumentality comes alive in <em>Ainadamar</em>, particularly in the striking opening solo piece that blends flamenco footwork with modern movement atop a table, backed by flamenco percussion and electronic soundscapes. “It’s the bullfight,” Najarro says. “The strength, the risk, the image of the bull. Lorca loved that tension between life and death. That’s what this choreography is.”<br><br></p>

<p>Yaamava’ Resort &amp; Casino set the stage for an unforgettable evening of music, dining, and entertainment as Colombian superstar<strong> Juanes</strong>, the Colombian Grammy award-winning singer, graced the theater with his electrifying performance. From the moment we arrived, the festive spirit was palpable, with the venue’s stunning Christmas decorations creating a warm and enchanting atmosphere. Glittering lights, intricately designed ornaments, and holiday cheer welcomed guests into this Southern California gem, located just over an hour from Los Angeles.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="768" height="1024" src="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red-768x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-84435" style="width:344px;height:auto" srcset="https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red-768x1024.jpg 768w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red-225x300.jpg 225w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red-110x147.jpg 110w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red-585x780.jpg 585w, https://latinheat.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Juanes-in-Red.jpg 810w" sizes="(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px" /></figure>



<p>Juanes took the stage and delivered hit after hit, including fan favorites like <em>“A Dios Le Pido,” “Me Enamora,”</em> and the iconic “<em>La Camisa Negra</em>.” His passion and charisma lit up the room as he seamlessly transitioned from rock anthems to heartfelt ballads. A highlight of the night was his performance of “<em>Es Por Ti</em>,” where the audience joined in, creating a moving moment of connection. His powerful lyrics and dynamic stage presence reminded everyone why he’s a 23-time Grammy and Latin Grammy winner. The production was top-notch, with stunning visuals and a band that matched Juanes’ energy note for note.</p>



<p>Our evening began with an exceptional dining experience at The Pines Modern Steakhouse. The menu, designed like a captivating book with chapters for each course, was a culinary delight. We started with perfectly seared crab cakes and rich, velvety lobster bisque. For the main course, we indulged in tender ribeye, succulent filet mignon, shrimp, and creamy lobster mac and cheese, paired with crispy Brussels sprouts that added a flavorful crunch. Our server, Alex, provided impeccable service, ensuring every detail of our meal was flawless. The Pines lived up to its reputation, offering a dining experience that was as luxurious as it was delicious.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Emilia Pérez</em></strong> is a 2024 musical crime comedy film written and directed by <strong>Jacques Audiard</strong>. It stars <strong>Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Adriana Paz, </strong>and<strong> Édgar Ramírez</strong> in the lead cast.  <strong><em>Emilia Pérez</em></strong> was the most talked-about film premiere at the 78th edition the 2024 Cannes Film Festival where it not only received a 12 minute standing ovation, the four lead women all received the best actress award at the renowned festival.</p>



<p>Filmed<strong> </strong>in Mexico, <strong>Zoe Saldaña </strong>who plays Rita, an overqualified and exploited lawyer who wastes her talents working for a large firm far better at whitewashing criminal garbage than serving justice. But an unexpected way out appears, the sort of offer she can&#8217;t refuse &#8212; to help feared cartel boss Juan &#8220;Little Hands&#8221; Del Monte &#8211; aka Manitas (played by Gascón) retire from his business and disappear forever. Manitas has a plan he&#8217;s been fine-tuning in secret for years, to become, at last, the woman he&#8217;s always dreamed of being.<strong>   </strong></p>

</div></figure>



<p>Following the movie’s Cannes debut, <strong>Selena Gomez</strong> who plays Manitas wife, Jessi del Monte, opened up about the nerves she was feeling. <em>“I was very nervous because this is a project that is unlike anything I’ve ever done before,”</em> she told <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/selena-gomez-zoe-saldana-interview-cannes-emilia-perez-1235904676/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>The Hollywood Reporter</em></a> in May. <em>“Even though I have such a small part, it’s such a big and special project that I feel so lucky that I was able to be a part of it.”</em></p>



<p><strong>Selena</strong> also recalled the audition process, where she said she <em>“acted insane.” </em>She told the trade publication,<em> “[Audiard] wanted me to perform one of the numbers and I just surrendered and completely gave myself. I was, like, ‘Well, at least I could walk away and say that I did my best.’ When he asked me to be a part of it, I was so nervous but also so excited.”</em></p>



<p>The original songs for the film were contributed by mutli–grammy winning group, <strong>Camille</strong>, while its original score was provided by <strong>Clément Ducol</strong>. The choreographic sections of the film are designed by <strong>Damien Jalet</strong>.</p>



<p>The film premiered on 18 May 2024 at the <a href="https://latinheat.com/zoe-saldana-selena-gomez-and-karla-sofia-gascon-in-emilia-perez-take-cannes-by-storm/">77th Cannes Film Festival</a>, and was selected to compete for the Palme d&#8217;Or in its main competition section, where it won the <em>Jury Prize</em> and its female ensemble won the <em>Best Actress award</em>.  The premiere date for <em>Emilia Perez</em> is set to  August 21, 2024.</p><p>The post <a href="https://latinheat.com/emilia-perez-crowns-cannes/">‘Emilia Perez’ crowns Cannes</a> first appeared on <a href="https://latinheat.com"></a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong><em>In Memoriam</em></strong></p>



<p>Tejano music legend and TV host <strong>Johnny Canales</strong> passed away on June 12, 2024, he was 67. Canales will be remembered for a giving soul who was there to illuminate and give a hand up to new Tejano talent on his show, the Corpus Christi-based TV show <em>The Johnny Canales Show</em>, which ran from 1983 to the mid 1990’s.</p>



<p>He would introduce young and well known music talents with his signature phrase “You Got It, Take it Away”.  It was a show that captivated audiences near and far introducing talents like a teenage Selena who appeared on his show a couple of times before her career took off.  Canales was known at that time as the &#8220;Mexican American Dick Clark&#8221;.</p>



<p>Author, Filmmaker, &amp; Activist <strong>David Damian Figueroa</strong>, was a friend of Canales throughout the years.  Figueroa, who was a publicist back in the day, would bring his clients to Canales show. In honor of Canales’ legacy Figueroa said:</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>“Johnny Canales was a true American hero who championed the uniquely American music genre of Tejano. His influence extended far beyond borders, as his show was broadcast in 23 countries, showcasing the vibrant sounds of Tejano music to a global audience.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Canales&#8217;s ability to seamlessly blend Spanglish, with his tagline delivered in English to an audience that predominantly spoke Spanish, further solidifies his legendary status. His story serves as a testament to the power of music to transcend language barriers and unite people from diverse backgrounds. </p>



<p>He was instrumental in inspiring other Corpus Christi hometown talents, like <strong>Selena</strong>, <strong>Freddy Fender</strong>, <strong>Pepe Serna,</strong> and <strong>Eva Longoria</strong>, who all went on to become icons in their own right.&nbsp; As for me, Johnny was my good friend, compadre, and colleague.&nbsp; He taught me a lot about the entertainment business and civil rights and how to merge both to help our community.&nbsp; Johnny Canales&#8217; legacy as a pioneer in promoting.”</p>
<cite>David Damian Figueroa</cite></blockquote>



<p>There is a documentary currently in post production entitled <em>Take It Away: The Rise and Fall of Tejano Hollywood</em> that will recount Canales’ significant contribution to Tejano music.The documentary will shed light on Canales’ significant contributions to the Tejano music scene and his enduring legacy.</p>
