Gloria Trevi - Agarrate: Mexican Madonna [Gracias a mi hombre: 'El borracho de Chocolate Rellena con Blog']

Gloria Trevi - Agarrate

HE moment Gloria Trevi left prison in September, Luis Medina's problems began. "My phone started ringing nonstop," says Mr. Medina, who was then days from staging the Latin Music Fan Awards in Los Angeles. "Hundreds of people were calling and asking: 'Is Gloria going to be there? Oh my God, I can't wait to see her. Is she going to sing?' "

That would be tricky. Ms. Trevi had certainly racked up extraordinary accomplishments over the past five years, but none involved music. Even by Courtney Love's standards, Ms. Trevi's scandals were astonishing: she had landed on Mexico's most-wanted list; eluded Interpol for more than a year; slipped in and out of at least three countries without detection; ignited a prison scandal in Brazil when investigators said that she had impregnated herself using a syringe made out of a ballpoint pen and sperm smuggled from a Brazilian drug lord (a claim later disproved by DNA testing); and been accused of helping to brainwash aspiring young singers and turn them into sex slaves for Sergio Andrade, Ms. Trevi's mentor and one of Mexico's top music producers.

So what was an awards director to do? The music fan awards are decided by popular vote, but even though Ms. Trevi was one of Mexico's most famous singers, she wasn't on the ballot because she hadn't recorded in years and wasn't expected out of jail for several more. Her sudden and unexpected acquittal on rape, kidnapping and corruption of a minor charges on Sept. 21 shocked even Ms. Trevi, who had complained angrily and often during three years of fighting extradition from Brazil and one year in pretrial custody in Chihuahua, Mexico, that she would never get a fair trial.

Mr. Medina, faced with the prospect of handing out an award to an artist with no votes, simply made one up. He announced that Ms. Trevi would receive the first Soul of the People Award, and was soon glad he did: he had to double security to handle the crowds and triple the space for satellite news trucks. True to recent history, no sooner had Ms. Trevi arrived in Los Angeles than Armando Gomez, her lawyer and new fiancé, was arrested on charges of money smuggling and extradited to Texas, where he is now awaiting trial.

Once onstage, Ms. Trevi dazzled. "The people adore her," Mr. Medina says, which taught him a lesson: "Latinos like a rebel, but we love a martyr." But Ms. Trevi's comeback from one of the most lurid scandals in pop history is being built on more than just the Evita syndrome and sensationalism. In a way, she has come up with a solution that mimics Mr. Medina's: make something up, make it glamorous and make it in America. Just six weeks out of prison, the performer known as the "Mexican Madonna" is showing a flair for reinvention that the Material Girl-turned-Kabbalist might gasp at.

Before she vanished in 1999, Ms. Trevi had been Mexico's most beloved star and one of Latin America's highest-paid female performers. She had three hit movies, six smash albums and several top-rated television specials. Her pinup calendars sold by the millions, and talks were under way for her Hollywood debut. But in 1998, a former backup singer, Aline Hernández, published a book in which she said that she had been tortured, starved and sexually abused by Ms. Trevi and Mr. Andrade. She wasn't the only one, Ms. Hernández wrote: dozens of girls had also been enticed and brainwashed. Ms. Hernández said that she had been 13 when Ms. Trevi lured her into the clan, and that she had to help recruit other girls before escaping at the age of 17.

At first, few people believed Ms. Hernández, who was widely painted as a vindictive Trevi-wannabe. But when Ms. Hernández filed a criminal complaint in 1999, Ms. Trevi disappeared. So did Mr. Andrade and a dozen young women. It took more than a year for Interpol to track them down. By the time they were captured in Brazil in January 2000, a 14-year-old member of the clan had abandoned a newborn infant in Spain, while at least five others were pregnant by Mr. Andrade, including two teenage sisters. Ms. Trevi had given birth while on the run, but the baby girl had died in her crib.

While fighting extradition to Mexico from an all-female wing of a maximum-security prison in Brasília, Ms. Trevi somehow became pregnant again. The Brazilian police floated their smuggled-sperm theory, but DNA tests proved the father was Mr. Andrade, who the police said had bribed guards for time alone with Ms. Trevi in an attorney-client conference room. Their motive, federal investigators said, was to follow the example of Ronnie Biggs, Britain's "Great Train Robber," who had escaped to Brazil and avoided extradition by fathering a child there.

But in December 2002, Ms. Trevi and her friend and fellow band member María Raquenel Portillo (better known as Mary Boquitas) dropped their appeals and went home to stand trial. Mr. Andrade followed a year later. That was supposed to be the final curtain on Ms. Trevi's sensational career - by the time she finished serving a sentence for rape, kidnapping and corruption of a minor, she would be too old and despised to return to the stage as the sexy rock rebel nicknamed La Atrevida, or the Daring One. The only way she could win an acquittal, it was thought, was by destroying her image: she could claim she was just another of victim of Mr. Andrade, but that would mean never cashing in again as an untamable, girl-power idol.

Ms. Trevi, however, never doubted that she would come back. I had a chance to witness that when she was nine months pregnant and under federal guard in a Brazilian maternity ward. After I had interviewed her for three hours, Ms. Trevi suddenly asked, "Would you like me to sing for you?"

She hummed for pitch, then began:

I want to take the mountains from your shoulders,

And let you rest.

Because there's no one like you,

There's no one, like you.

Expectant moms with tears in their eyes crowded the door of Ms. Trevi's room, and the two guards applauded.

I knew the song, written while she was in prison, was for Mr. Andrade, but only later would I realize how much it revealed about who was really the strong one in that relationship: the survivor who would keep on fighting no matter how bad things became. Once back in Mexico, Ms. Trevi persuaded the warden to allow her to convert a sewing room into a sound studio. During the year she spent in Chihuahua's Cereso prison awaiting trial, Ms. Trevi wrote and recorded an album's worth of songs, even though one of her lawyers had said her chances of acquittal were slim. But when she and Ms. Portillo finally faced a judge in September, they discovered that the prosecutors no longer had a case: during Ms. Trevi's years in Brazil, the clan girls had grown up, married and moved on. They were reluctant to speak out against Mr. Andrade, whose brother is a well-connected politician.

One crucial witness, Karina Yapor Gómez, had provided some explosive testimony. "When I was a 9-year-old girl going to see my favorite music star," Ms. Yapor testified, "I never thought that I'd one day help her hide a corpse." But she also had trouble keeping her story straight, briefly ran away from home between pretrial hearings and missed court dates to go Christmas shopping.

Ms. Trevi and Ms. Portillo were exonerated for lack of evidence. Mr. Andrade will be tried later this year. Ms. Trevi was Mr. Andrade's most vocal defender during their years behind bars in Brazil, but there have been signs of estrangement: in a pretrial deposition, newspapers reported, she blamed him for her bulimia and declared that she disagreed with the way he disciplined young singers. Mr. Andrade arranged with prison officials to bid Ms. Trevi a face-to-face farewell after her acquittal, but she skipped the meeting.

So what will the 36-year-old singer do without the mentor who shaped her career since she was 15 and transformed her from a cute provincial girl into a rock goddess? "She's extremely talented, but Sergio called the shots," says Mario Salinas, owner of Milagro Sound Studios in Glendale, Calif., where Ms. Trevi recorded all her albums. "When she came back for her fifth album, I said, 'Gloria, great to see you again!' and put out my hand. She just stared at me, waiting for orders, until Sergio said, 'Gloria, shake Mr. Salinas's hand.' Then, she came to life."

The first scandal in Ms. Trevi's career broke out when her grandmother took out a full-page advertisement in their hometown newspaper, begging Ms. Trevi to stop tearing her clothes onstage and shaming the family. Ms. Trevi's response that she loved her music as much as her abuelita ignited nationwide headlines. "Sergio engineered the whole thing," Mr. Salinas says. "He'd think up ways to get everyone in the country talking about her, and she'd go along with it."

But if Ms. Trevi was under a Svengali's spell all those years, she learned a few things. As soon as she was freed, she surprised many in the Latin music industry by leaving Mexico, where her records had sold in the millions, and heading to the United States, where she had sold very few. That might turn out to reflect a shrewd understanding of where her strongest and best-financed fan base now lives.

"Most people thought her only strength was in her home country, but Gloria has a different game plan," says Paula Kaminsky, a vice president of marketing for BMG U.S. Latin records, Ms. Trevi's label. "First, many of her old fans are now new Americans. She appealed to the rebels, the bolder kids, and they're the ones who came over here and brought their tastes with them."

Many Latinos undergo a cultural freeze when they cross the border, said Ms. Kaminsky, a transplanted Argentine: their nostalgia for home becomes a nostalgia for their favorite old tunes. "The teenager who loved her 10 years ago is now living in Chicago and still listening to her records," Ms. Kaminsky says.

Meanwhile, the Mexican population in the United States has nearly doubled since Ms. Trevi released her first album in 1990. There are now more than 20 million recent Mexican immigrants or Mexican-Americans living in the United States, and according to the Recording Industry Association of America, their median age, 24, and household income, $42,000, match the profile of the top consumers of Latin American music. Factor in this group's favorite genre, pop rock, and a whopping 21 percent increase in Latin music sales during the first half of 2004 over the same period in 2003, when overall music sales rose 10 percent, and Ms. Trevi may have as many fans in the United States as she does at home.

Ms. Trevi now has the name recognition and novelty appeal to feed off this listener pool: mainstream Americans with a taste for Latin music are likely to be curious to hear how the once-jailed songbird sings. "The truth is, we have even higher expectations for the next album than this one," Ms. Kaminsky says. "Curiosity is going to draw a lot of first-time buyers, but when they find out how talented she is, they're going to be hungry for more."

Mr. Medina of the music awards agrees. Ms. Trevi played some rough cuts for him before the ceremony, and he said he was "blown back'' in his chair by them.

But no matter how solid her music, warns Mr. Salinas of Milagro studios, Ms. Trevi will have to repackage herself to hold onto American listeners. "With her notoriety, it's wide open for her to break in a really big way, bigger than she ever was before, but she'll have to warp herself a little culturally, like Marc Anthony and Ricky Martin, and master the language," he says. "Don't forget, Gloria has been an absolute original from Day 1. She's dominated every medium she tried - I'm talking movies, TV, live performances - because she writes amazing lyrics and can think on her feet like few people you'll ever see."

Ms. Trevi was such an innovator in her first television appearance in 1989 that she was subsequently banned from Televisa, Mexico's only television network at the time. Until then, the ideal of a female singer in Mexico was an elegant, gowned balladeer with unmovable hips and hair. But when Ms. Trevi made her debut on "Siempre en Domingo," the country's highest-rated program, she tore at her nylons and writhed around the stage, screaming out a song about a young mental patient being seduced by her psychiatrist. Despite her exile from television, her first album dominated the charts, landing three singles in the top three slots.

Throughout the 1990's, Ms. Trevi perfected the role of rock rebel, winning support from both cultural critics, who applauded her witty lyrics and outspoken feminism, and teenagers, who copied her short skirts, clunky boots and wild hair. It was from the legions of "mini Trevis" that her pack of acolytes was formed. "Whenever Sergio was in the studio," Mr. Salinas recalls, "he'd have five or six of these very young girls sitting at his feet, just staring up at him."

In a perverse way, Ms. Trevi's legal problems couldn't have come at a better moment in her career: she was becoming too old to play the bad girl. "Now she can make the shift to martyr," Mr. Salinas says.

Jackie Madrigal, the Latin formats editor for Radio and Records magazine, adds: "In the past, she always had this stand-up-for-yourself image, and that's working for her now. She's depicting herself as a woman who's been wronged, and even people who believe she was guilty figure she's paid the price with five years in jail."

So far, Ms. Trevi seems to be managing her rebirth well, despite the continuing turmoil in her personal life. She has signed with World Entertainment Associates, Miami-based agents who specialize in veteran, scandal-free performers like Gloria Gaynor, Jose Feliciano, Maria Conchita Alonso and Dionne Warwick. She has a new album in production, "The Birth of the Universe." She also has a guest role in "Aventureras," a popular, American-based theatrical revue for Latinos, and a photo layout of her seminaked in the current issue of the Spanish-language men's magazine H. In the works to accompany her album is a tour that will kick off in Mexico City (where Ms. Trevi can still fill the 104,000-seat Aztec Stadium) before shifting to the United States.

"En Medio de la Tempestad" ("In the Middle of the Storm"), the first single from the coming album, has already shown Ms. Trevi's staying power on the charts. According to Radio and Records's rankings, it has lodged in the Top 20 on Spanish contemporary radio in the United States for nearly a month, beating out Paulina Rubio's "Algo Tienes" and Marc Anthony's "Ahora Quién," and crept into the Top 5 for most increased plays. Aside from two television performances, Ms. Trevi has done nothing to promote the single, which was also released in Mexico.

The secret to her success might be silence: La Atrevida always loved a microphone, but the new Ms. Trevi is granting no interviews. She is following R. Kelly's example and keeping her mouth shut until the turmoil from the sex scandal dies down. When it does, American talk-show hosts who haven't followed the Trevi scandal as rabidly as their Latin American counterparts won't have the archival memory to press Ms. Trevi about the weird questions still swirling about her case.

Juan Osorio, the Aaron Spelling of Mexican television, was so ready to gamble on Ms. Trevi's marketability that he signed her to a contract before she was acquitted; he created a soap opera, yet to be produced, based on her life, and figured out a way she could phone in her lines from jail in the event of her conviction.

"If Trevi used to be an idol," Mr. Osorio says, "she will now become a phenomenon."

Okay, men, if you really want to watch, you can, but be warned, you may get grossed out (feel disgusted, feel sick in your stomach). This blog post is about when a woman gets her period (menstruates) in America.

Partial Transcript

Today we’re going to talk about “getting your period” (time of menstruation/bleeding).
Yes. I’m wearing my red jacket for this occasion (for this talk, this special event, this situation).
“Getting your period” means when a woman bleeds every month.
Okay, guys, you can turn it off. I know this is stuff you don’t want to hear.
If you’re in another country and you’ve got your period, you need to know what to say and how to say it. You can say, “She’s on the rag.” (She has her period, She’s bleeding.)
The time before she gets her period, that’s called “PMS” (pre-menstrual syndrome - the week before the bleeding starts when hormones change and can cause mood changes, fluctuations in emotion.
You can say, “I’m PMSing now.” (But Kim’s Note to Guys - Don’t tell a woman she’s PMSing or she might kill you.)
Or… “I think my period’s about to come. I feel like shit.” (I feel terrible.)
Let’s say (Imagine), you are in a bathroom in America and EMERGENCY,you don’t have a tampon or a pad (napkin).
Sometimes women will ask one another, “Hey, do you have a tampon? Do you have any napkins? Do you have a pad?”
Even though there is a taboo (a barrier against talking or discussing something) … that’s why I’m talking to you about this.
If you have an emergency, women are pretty understanding (quite understanding) in America.
No one is going to say, “I’m so offended (insulted) that you asked me that.”
They’ll say, “Oh gosh, I don’t.” or “Let me ask my sister.” We tend to help each other out. (to tend to do something = to usually do something)

"En 1977 el grupo neoyorkino Sugar Hill Gang tuvo la gloria de haber lanzado al mercado el primer producto comercial de un género underground llamado rap. El disco que grabaron era una larga retahíla de 18 minutos, declamada en contagioso y frenético tempo por tres raperos del Bronx. Rappers Delight, se llamó aquella pieza, que resultaba inentendible en inglés "civilizado" y por supuesto también en castellano. En Venezuela, adonde la pieza llegó en 1978, la rebautizaron como La Cotorra, que es como llamamos en este país a ciertas charlas largas y cantinfléricas. Un año más tarde, el ingenio de un querido humorista del patio llamado Perucho Conde nos obsequió una versión hablada en caraqueño y con un ritmo parecido al de los raperos del Bronx. Se llama La Cotorra Criolla."

Monte Montgomery: Little Wing [acoustic]

The amazing acoustic guitar wizard Monte Montgomery plays his own style instrumental cover version of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing live in the Austin Music Network studio.

This clip captures a bit of the excitement of what it's like to see him live, but you really just have to be there to really feel it. Trust me, just go see him live whenever possible. You can also get better quality audio of this same song by buying his self-titled CD.

About that recording Monte says; "As a teenager, I really became enthralled with Stevie Ray Vaughn. Both of us living in Texas, his music was hard to miss. His posthumously released version of Little Wing hit me very hard. I started just playing around with the song, not knowing the words, it eventually evolved into this epic jam. Stevie's tribute to Hendrix has and will forever be my tribute to Stevie."

Richey Edwards and Nicky Wire of the Manic Street Preachers really really really love Japan! In this casual but cute Japanese interview (GATS period) they talk of their love of rain, video games and fruit machines, Richeys cuts and burns, and other things they enjoy and prefer about Japan. Except all the smoking according to Nicky, all the while as Richey chain smokes like a fiend through-out the entire interview!

The Jazz Singer with Jerry Lewis (Part 2 - 1959)

This is a rarity!! I have received a lot of email regarding more of this show. Here are the closing minutes of a live TV drama version of "The Jazz Singer". Jerry Lewis takes the lead as a nightclub singer who is torn between show business and his faith. Co-Stars Anna Maria Alberghetti. (This is a TV remake of Al Jolson's first sound film.)
Note: These are the critical last minutes where the jazz singer must decide whether to follow his faith or stay with show business where "the show must go on." Many have asked if it was intentional that Jerry wore his clown makeup while singing the Kol Nidre. What do you think?
Air Date: NBC-TV October 13, 1959

Tandem - Jean-Fred Mélé

1936

1°Pathé-journal du 20 juin 1936
2°chanson "Tandem"

Aux éléctions législatives de mai et juin 1936, c'est le Front Populaire qui obtint la majorité. Ce fut donc Léon Blum (SFIO) qui devint Président du Conseil le 3 juin 1936. Le 7 juin, après des semaines de grève, les Accords de Matignon sont signés. Les ouvriers obtiennent les 40 heures et 2 semaines de Congés Payés: ce furent les premières vacances pour beaucoup de Français.
Cette chanson fut célèbre pendant l'été 1936. Elle symbolisait les Congés Payés, et ces Français qui partaient en vacances en train, en voiture, mais aussi en tandem, pour ceux (nombreux) qui n'avaient pas d'autre moyens. Jean-Fred Mélé, le chanteur, est le fils de Fred Mélé.


In the French legislative elections of May and June, 1936, it's the Popular Front which acquired the majority. So, Léon Blum (socialist) became Prime Minister on June 3rd, 1936. June 7th, after weeks of strike, Agreements of Matignon are signed. The workers acquire 40 hours and 2 weeks of Paid leaves: these were the first vacation for a lot Frenchman.
This song was famous during summer, 1936.It represented Paid leaves, and these Frenchmen who went on holiday by train, by car, but also in tandem, for those (numerous) who did not have other one means. Jean-Fred Mélé, the singer, is the son of Fred Mélé.

Michael Nesmith - Cruisin'

Another classic music video from the pre-MTV era, I guess I first saw this video on Don Kirschner or some other late-night music show. I love how in the olden days the plot of a music video actually followed the song's lyrics. Plus how can you beat a line like "Trying to make connections with their blemish-free complexions"?

Please Don't Touch Me! [Ron Ormond] + Slapstick of Another Kind: Jerry Lewis + Madeline Kahn [Worst Vonnegut Adaptation: 1982]

Please Don't Touch Me! - Ron Ormond

A melodramatic moment from the message drama from Ron and June Ormond. The 1963 film, also called "Teenage Bride," was a very tame affair that capitalized on, as you see here, the fact that the word "rape" could now be said on American screens

For those who haven't heard of the film "Slapstick of Another Kind" (1982), here's some text from yours truly, from the former Funhouse blog:

Writer-director-producer Steven Paul made in Slapstick a film that attempts to visualize some of Vonnegut's craziest, cartoon-like images, and fails in a really amazing manner. In the process, a really dazzling cast of comic actors do their damndest, but only provoke groans and open-mouthed wonder. Jerry Lewis and Madeline Kahn play a couple who give birth to mutant giant twins (also Jerry and Madeline) who become a joint mastermind when they put their heads together (literally). Marty Feldman does a Peter Lorre impression as their guardian, Merv Griffin and Virginia Graham are on hand, Pat Morita plays a miniaturized Chinese head of state, Jim Backus is the president, and yes, that's the voice of Orson Welles as the alien leader. It's one rough ride, even at a mere 85 minutes, but it truly does have to go down as one of the worst pics ever made.

O Billy depois do Joelho "lancou" a ideia do videoclip na TV brasileira. TODAs as grandes bandas dos anos 80 passaram epelo BOND.
A ultima proeza do Billy foi inventar o Luciano Huck
SalVE Billy

proletário, na London de Tatcher. Parabéns ao Billy, ao Tico, a todas as pessoas que pensaram e fizeram a banda. Sou músico e sei que um projeto desses não sai do nada, ou do vazio. Vamos respeitar nossa memória.

Tenho, cá para mim, que o retrato urbano de cidades como Rio e Sampa,feito na obra do Joelho é impagável,senão genial. Em 1978 rolava muita coisa...uma banda como essa fatalmente sofreria preconceitos, como sofreu. Mas, moleques como eu (um dia fui),espalhados pelo país ouvia e gostavam. A inteligentzia,sempre com o pé atrás,cheia de meias-palavras e pensamento dúbio não poderia mesmo relacionar a abordagem da banda com respeito aos assuntos tupiniquins...para eles, ser punk era coisa de inglês

Billy Bond hoje é diretor de musicais (teatro). E está magro.

não tem mamonas certo...

Tambem assisti o show deles em 78 no Tereza Rachel, teve um episodio que alguns babacas, jogavam tomates no Joelho, Blyy desceu do palco e encheu de porrada os caras, até banco saiu voando, depois o show rolou. 10, notas 10!

mira, por donde y enq ue anda exactamente no se pero hace un par de años se junto con la pesada para tocar en un festival al que no tuve oportunidad de ir, mas que eso no se, si te sirve de algo al menos saber que no se jubilo, jajaj, EMI. espero que se entienam ejjeje.
