 | Mar Ayala Dymfc Argentina > Daddy Yankee http://www.facebook.com/pages/AME-AMO-Y-SIEMPRE-VOY-AMAR-A-RAYMOND-LUIS-AYALA-RODRIGUEZ-DY-/120981527990549 UNANSEN PLEASE | AME, AMO Y SIEMPRE VOY AMAR A ''RAYMOND LUIS AYALA RODRIGUEZ' DY ¡ El Artista Urbano De La Década Con más de ocho millones de discos vendidos, siete éxitos número 1 en la cartelera de radio Billboard, una película que resultó un éxito en la taquilla, y cuatro discos en el tope de las listas de venta, incluyendo el disco latino de más venta en la década, según la revista Billboard, Daddy Yankee es el Artista latino urbano más relevante en el mundo entero. Ganador de múltiples premios Billboard y Grammy ha sido nombrado una de las personalidades más influyentes en el mundo por CNN y la revista Times, se le considera el artista que impulse la popularidad del género musical conocido como reggaetón alrededor del mundo. Un innovador constante, Yankee se ha desarrollado más allá de los confines de su género para convertirse en una figura principal de la música urbana. No solo popularizó un estilo musical que revoluciono el ambiente musical, también redefinió la visión del artista como el arquitecto de su propio destino y carrera. Como fundador y CEO de su propia casa discográfica, El Cartel Records, Yankee impulsó el género de la música Latina Urbana del ámbito local al ámbito mundial, mucho antes que ninguna de las más importantes casas discográficas se tomaran el riesgo de promover un género cuya popularidad no había sido probada. El modelo de negocio que estableció Yankee para promover este género fue tan innovador que revolucionó la forma de mercadear, promover y distribuir la música latina. Este modelo le ha servido de estrategia a muchos talentos que actualmente han logrado desarrollarse y disfrutan de los frutos del mismo. Su más reciente incursión en el mundo de la actuación fue su participación en la serie dramática ganadora de un premio Emmy®, "The Bold & The Beautiful" (Belleza y Poder) y que transmite en más de 100 paises. En el 2008 Yankee protagonizó la película "Talento De Barrio" (ligeramente basada en su vida), la cual fue estrenada en los Estados Unidos, Puerto Rico y América Latina. La música de la película formó parte de un disco que ya ha vendido sobre 1 millón de copias alrededor del mundo, llegando a la posición número uno en las listas "Billboard's Top Latin Album" y el sencillo de "Pose" logró el primer lugar en la lista "Billboard's Hot Latin Songs". En el 2007 actuó en la serie "Cane" de CBS junto a Jimmy Smits. En el presente, Yankee preside un imperio que incluye el Cartel Records, su casa de producción, su ya galardonada casa de publicación, la colonia DY para hombres, un programa de televisión con TV Azteca en México, múltiples iniciativas filantrópicas, y contratos de portavoz para diferentes marcas. Aparte de haber tenido su propia marca de zapatillas deportivas (a través de Reebok), protagonizar "Talento de Barrio" la película puertorriqueña que más taquillas ha vendido en la historia, Yankee ha tenido contratos internacionales con marcas tan importantes como Pepsi, Movistar (Chile), y Coors Light. El astro también lanzo DY, una fragancia para hombres en el 2008 y más recientemente en Agosto del 2010 se lanzo DYAmante, esta vez para las mujeres. Comprometido con la comunidad latina, Yankee creó su fundación "Corazón Guerrero", la que trabaja activamente para transformar las vidas de miles de niños necesitados en su natal Puerto Rico, así como, en la Republica Dominicana y Colombia entre otros países, mejorando así su educación y estilo de vida. Los esfuerzos filantrópicos de Yankee lo convirtieron en el ganador del premio "Billboard's Spirit of Hope Award", que se otorga anualmente a un artista escogido por su compromiso a la ayuda humanitaria. Yankee regresó con su primera producción musical después de dos años de ausencia, titulado "Mundial". Este álbum fue distribuido por Sony y representa la verdadera naturaleza de Daddy Yankee, 13 canciones (y tres 'bonus track' disponibles en iTunes). El primer sencillo del álbum "Descontrol" ha alcanzado las primeras posiciones en los Billboard's Latin Rhythm charts. A solo horas del lanzamiento de "Mundial", el disco ha alcanzado el lugar número uno en iTunes Latino y Amazon.com. El disco incluye la canción "Grito Mundial" la cual fue seleccionada por ESPN Latino y Telefutura para musicalizar las campañas de la Copa Mundial FIFA 2010. Tal vez mas dirigida a un público internacional que ninguno de sus discos anteriores, "Mundial" llega después de un año donde Yankee se presentó en más de 50 escenarios totalmente vendidos alrededor del mundo, impulsando a la cadena CNN a nombrarlo "la figura del mundo artístico hispano más influyente en los Estados Unidos y Latino América". MÁS SOBRE DADDY YANKEE • Durante el 2009, Yankee fue el artista más buscado en Google en los países de Argentina y Chile, superado solamente por Michael Jackson. • El atractivo del artista para dentro del mundo cibernético se hace evidente con el éxito de su página de internet HYPERLINK "http://www.daddyyankee.com/"www.daddyyankee.com, una página innovadora e interactiva que presenta noticias de Yankee, actualizadas constantemente, además de ofrecer mercancía y material digital del artista. • "Yankee en Puerto Rico es el termino popular para describir a alguien grande, fuerte e importante en lo que hace" dijo Yankee a la revista Billboard en el 2005. "Así que el nombre significa "Big Daddy"". • Diez años después de sus primeros fogueos con DJ Playero, Yankee distribuyó su primer disco "El Cangri.com", que a pesar de no tener distribución en Estados Unidos, pasó tres semanas en las listas de los "Billboard Top Latin Albums". • La carrera de Yankee continúo con el disco "Los Homeruns Vol. 1" que se distribuyó en el 2003 y durante 4 semanas, logró la posición número 8 en las listas Billboard. Este disco tenia la canción "Segurosky" que consolidó el estilo único de Yankee. • El disco que marcó uno de los momentos más altos en el inicio de la carrera de Yankee, fue su álbum "Barrio Fino" en el 2005. Este disco debutó número 1 en las listas "Billboard Top Latin Albums". "Barrio Fino" incluye el éxito mundial "Gasolina" canción que estuvo al frente en popularidad durante largo tiempo y alrededor del mundo. • Al final del 2005 "Barrio Fino" se posicionaba como el álbum más vendido del año y Yankee, el hombre que no quiso firmar con ninguna compañía disquera, era solicitado por las disqueras más prominentes del mundo. • Casi inmediatamente, Yankee lanzó "Barrio Fino En Directo," una versión en vivo de "Barrio Fino" que se convirtió en el álbum Latino de más ventas durante el 2006. • Daddy Yankee es miembro del panel de celebridades de la Cruz Roja Americana. • Daddy Yankee fue el primer artista latino urbano en participar en el programa The Bold and The Beautiful de CBS • Daddy Yankee tiene más de 3 millones de fanáticos en Facebook • Daddy's House es la organización caritativa mas reciente del artista.

| | maria > Daddy Yankee  | Daddy Yankee El Retrasado mental Daddy Yankee nació en un fumadero de crack de Nueva York (por eso su estúpida obsesión con los Yankees de Nueva York) en 1966. El parto fue sin atención médica porque al chupapollasjoputas este tenía prisa por salir del asqueroso vientre de su puta madre, y por esto a la puta de su madre le resultó muy duro.

|  | Martina Morina > Lady Gaga I wanna fuck you! lol |  | Lady Gaga - The Greatest Artist > Lady Gaga https://www.facebook.com/thegreatestatist PLEASE LIKE AND SHARE THIS PAGE! I'm in love with Juda-as♪ It doesn't matter if you love him,.♪♪  | Lady Gaga - The Greatest Artist When Lady Gaga was a little girl, she would sing along on her mini plastic tape recorder to Michael Jackson and Cyndi Lauper hits and get twirled in the air in daddy's arms to the sounds of the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. The precocious child would dance around the table at fancy Upper West Side restaurants using the breadsticks as a baton. And, she would innocently greet a new babysitter in nothing but her birthday suit. It's no wonder that little girl from a good Italian New York family, turned into the exhibitionist, multi-talented singer-songwriter with a flair for theatrics that she is today: Lady Gaga. "I was always an entertainer. I was a ham as a little girl and I'm a ham today," says Lady Gaga, 22, who made a name for herself on the Lower East Side club scene with the infectious dance-pop party song "Beautiful Dirty Rich," and wild, theatrical, and often tongue-in-cheek "shock art" performances where Gaga – who designs and makes many of her stage outfits -- would strip down to her hand-crafted hot pants and bikini top, light cans of hairspray on fire, and strike a pose as a disco ball lowered from the ceiling to the orchestral sounds of A Clockwork Orange. "I always loved rock and pop and theater. When I discovered Queen and David Bowie is when it really came together for me and I realized I could do all three," says Gaga, who nicked her name from Queen's song "Radio Ga Ga" and who cites rock star girlfriends, Peggy Bundy, and Donatella Versace as her fashion icons. "I look at those artists as icons in art. It's not just about the music. It's about the performance, the attitude, the look; it's everything. And, that is where I live as an artist and that is what I want to accomplish." That goal might seem lofty, but consider the artist: Gaga is the girl who at age 4 learned piano by ear. By age 13, she had written her first piano ballad. At 14, she played open mike nights at clubs such as New York's the Bitter End by night and was teased for her quirky, eccentric style by her Convent of the Sacred Heart School (the Manhattan private school Nicky and Paris Hilton attended) classmates by day. At age 17, she became was one of 20 kids in the world to get early admission to Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. Signed by her 20th birthday and writing songs for other artists (such as the Pussycat Dolls, and has been asked to write for a series of Interscope artists) before her debut album was even released, Lady Gaga has earned the right to reach for the sky. "My goal as an artist is to funnel a pop record to a world in a very interesting way," says Gaga, who wrote all of her lyrics, all of her melodies, and played most of the synth work on her album, The Fame (Streamline/KonLive/Interscope). "I almost want to trick people into hanging with something that is really cool with a pop song. It's almost like the spoonful of sugar and I'm the medicine." On The Fame, it's as if Gaga took two parts dance-pop, one part electro-pop, and one part rock with a splash of disco and burlesque and generously poured it into the figurative martini glasses of the world in an effort to get everyone drunk with her Fame. "The Fame is about how anyone can feel famous," she explains. "Pop culture is art. It doesn't make you cool to hate pop culture, so I embraced it and you hear it all over The Fame. But, it's a sharable fame. I want to invite you all to the party. I want people to feel a part of this lifestyle." The CD's opener and first single, "Just Dance," gets the dance floor rocking with it's "fun, L.A., celebratory vibe." As for the equally catchy, "Boys Boys Boys," Gaga doesn't mind wearing her influences on her sleeve. "I wanted to write the female version of Motley Crue's 'Girls Girls Girls,' but with my own twist. I wanted to write a pop song that rockers would like." "Beautiful Dirty Rich" sums up her time of self-discovery, living in the Lower East Side and dabbling in drugs and the party scene. "That time, and that song, was just me trying to figure things out," says Gaga. "Once I grabbed the reigns of my artistry, I fell in love with that more than I did with the party life." On first listen, "Paparazzi" might come off as a love song to cameras, and in all honestly, Gaga jokes "on one level it IS about wooing the paparazzi and wanting fame. But, it's not to be taken completely seriously. It's about everyone's obsession with that idea. But, it's also about wanting a guy to love you and the struggle of whether you can have success or love or both." Gaga shows her passion for love songs on such softer tracks as the Queen-influenced "Brown Eyes" and the sweet kiss-off break-up song "Nothing I can Say (eh eh)." "'Brown Eyes' is the most vulnerable song on the album," she explains. "'Eh Eh' is my simple pop song about finding someone new and breaking up with the old boyfriend." For the new tour for this album, fans will be treated to a more polished version of what they saw (and loved) at her critically acclaimed Lollapalooza show in August 2007 and Winter Music Conference performance in March 2008. "This new show is the couture version of my handmade downtown performance of the past few years. It's more fine-tuned, but some of my favorite elements to my past shows – the disco balls, hot pants, sequin, and stilettos – will still be there. Just more fierce and more of a conceptual show with a vision for pop performance art." It's been a while since a new pop artist has made her way in the music industry the old-fashioned/grass roots way by paying her dues with seedy club gigs and self-promotion. This is one rising pop star who hasn't been plucked from a model casting call, born into a famous family, won a reality TV singing contest, or emerged from a teen cable TV sitcom. "I did this the way you are supposed to. I played every club in New York City and I bombed in every club and then killed it in every club and I found myself as an artist. I learned how to survive as an artist, get real, and how to fail and then figure out who I was as singer and performer. And, I worked hard." Gaga adds with a wink in her eye, "And, now, I'm just trying to change the world one sequin at a time." source: https://www.facebook.com/ladygaga?sk=info |

It's a prominant part of our pop culture today and I'm curious about it. In her post below she calls it a lifestyle. To me it sounds like a movement almost or at times even a religion because the intensity and worship of her. Intense, worship like adoration isn't uncommon with celebrities, but they aren't usually promoting a lifestyle. She seems to represent the fight for acceptance, which is a much bigger deal than just being a celebrity that people have a crush on or something. What are your thoughts monsters?
