SPECIAL COVERAGE
BLTv access to VIP parties of PREMIOS LO NUESTRO!
By Araminta Romero, Director of Development and Stragtegic Marketing
One more time BLTv got access to exclusive events and VIP receptions before and after this year's PREMIOS LO NUESTRO,
an awards show honoring the best of Latin music presented by Univision.
'PREMIOS LO NUESTRO' AFTERPARTY!

A great event deserves a great closure! Once everyone headed up to the very well recommended club owned by Emilio
Stephan, those of us who know better went to the REAL afterparties of the event, the ones that not only had celebrities
coming in and out at all times but also featured exclusive presentations of one or two musicians that decided to step out on
the stage. We listened to Khriz and Angel's 'Ven Bailalo' live performance while hanging out with Luney (from Luney Tunes),
Elvis Crespo, Lenny Santos (from Aventura), Vladimir (from Ilegales) and many more!
The 2008 PREMIOS LO NUESTRO Latin Music Awards,
held in Miami, was a really good show this year. As
always, there were great music, glitzy productions and
glowing tributes. But besides all the glamour we all see
on TV or read about in the newspapers, there are
exclusive events that are rarely exposed to the common
eye and that are restricted but to those that know
someone that knows someone.

By divine intervention and thanks to
Tony Martinez,
President of
Kinetix Integrated Communications, BLTv
had access to the most important pre and after parties
held in Miami in celebration of this annual event.
PLANETA KUMBIA LISTENING SESSION

BLTv attendet the exclusive listening party sponsored by
Zune for A.B. Quintanilla’s new album, Planeta Kumbia, the
night before PREMIOS LO NUESTRO. The event—held
within the exclusive penthouse suite at South Beach’s uber-
ritzy Raleigh Hotel—seemed to attract just about every Latin
record executive, reporter, and “model type” to ever set
foot in South Florida. MTV cameras were there, so too
were the BLTv special correspondent Araminta Romero and
countless other media outlets. Then, standing at the center
of the entire ruckus, was A.B. Quintanilla, the main purveyor
of the genre known as Tex-Mex-Cumbia.

A spectacular afterparty followed the event in a well-known
club in Miami, where celebrities such as Pitbull, Nina Sky, and
the very A.B Quintanilla & Kumbia All Starz members enjoyed
of a night of champagne, music and dancing.
