Latin News Catch-up: William Levy Celebrates, Maite Perroni Promotes 'La Gata' & 'La Malquerida' Gets Scandalous
While Shakira confirming she was pregnant and Victoria Justice renaming herself Vicki Minaj and twerking to "Anaconda" were some popular stories this week, here's a collection of stories you may have missed.
It was heavy on birthdays. Lucero, William Levy and Thalia all celebrated.
Lucero was at a press conference for her new TV show, "Yo Soy El Artista," where she was serenaded by mariachi, who sang "Las Mañanitas." The singer turned 45 on Aug. 29, and she retweeted some of the kind words other celebrities sent her way.
She also shared a picture of herself with a birthday cake.
"And we continue celebrating and I am the happiest woman in the world!!" she said. "Thank you life for so much! Surrounded by love!"
Levy turned 34 on the same day, but before he could get around to celebrating, he wished Thalia a happy birthday. "Much happiness @thalia, enjoy it. Tell La Flaca not to behave too badly. Because she still has more celebrating to do on Friday," he said. Both Levy and Thalia are good friends with Lili Estefan, or La Flaca. He shared a lot of great pictures on his Instagram account, one of which is his birthday cake.
Thalia turned 43 on Aug. 26. She dedicated an Instagram post to herself. "Happy birthday to the beautiful girl that lives inside! You always make me smile! Happy birthday baby T," she said.
A big event this weekend is People En Español's Festival People. Based on the hashtag #FestivalPeople, one of the most anticipated segments will revolve around Maite Perroni. A picture that keeps floating around is one that says this will be Perroni's third consecutive year at the event.
The festival lines up perfectly with the American release of Perroni's new show, "La Gata."
The event takes place on Aug. 30 and 31 in San Antonio, Texas. Some of the other celebrities making an appearance include Gabriel Coronel, Becky G and Ana Maria Polo. Click here for a full list of activities and events.
A big "La Malquerida" spoiler was released earlier this week.
Whether you just started watching the show or have been tuning in for weeks, you know that Esteban is attracted to his step daughter (or step daughter-to-be, depending on how far along you are in the series).
Well, Acacia's hate has dissipated. Although she planned to unmask him for the fraud he was, she is now under his spell. Acacia ends up kissing Esteban, who just confessed to El Rubio that he killed Acacia's father.
