The 1st Annual Latin Grammys will be co-hosted by Estefan, Andy Garcia and Jimmy Smits, and will be televised on Sept. 13 by the CBS. Rumors that organizers were hoping for a show-stopping brawl to boost ratings went unconfirmed at press time.
Emilio Estefan Jr. and Carlos Vives lead all nominees with six nods each, while Marc Anthony and Shakira each scored five. The awards will be handed out in 40 categories.
Insiders are still pondering the importance of these awards as they line up for pedicures and fittings.
